    When you have both, you open the boxes, and look which one is the most difficult (PE wise ) ... that one comes last One should increae difficulty in steps ...

    Awesome detail ... a pleasure to see your updates as usual, Thomas

    I personally wouldn't use the initial template, as with sawing and/or sanding it will never end up similar. You could make a trace, with a piece of paper and use that to cut and shape the sill ... just a thought ...

    Clean 'em up That's what I do when I watch your progress. Gives me a clear view of your prowess

    A few hours per ... some to be redone ... you'll be ready in no time, Mark ... meep, meep

    You should try it at 200 or 350 Looking smooth and fascinating. Those guilded parts always give a little extra ... she's coming along very well

    have a look here Snow. The nicest is an airbrush, but if you do not have one, an artist brush, or a rattle can will do too.

    Nice tutorial Dan. Looks rather smooth

    Those bell towers always give problems Nicely dealt with

    Nice to know! I've seen someone stacking the planks, and glue (semi)dark gray paper to the side of the stack and slice them of the stack. I think the sanding might pose a problem with the paper ...

    The nr 2 explaines the dark colour. At first I thought it was dark grey paper.

    Looks "workable" to me, no splinters Verry spiff. What did you use/do for caulking?
  13. cog
    A retractable diving board now we're talkin' Lots of goodies on this one Patrick!
  14. cog
    It won't be easy to get that difference in materials flush ... ever tried spray filler? Often a primer and filler at the same time. Nice progress though
  15. cog
    Looks very smart, but I would have expected the bolts to be exposed, not create a hollow in the straps ... that's my ignorance writing
  16. cog
    Hear, hear ...

    Thse double barrel guns look marvelous. Can't you get the railings from an Aussie shop? A pitty Greg (RGL) doesn't use your scale PE. He must have quite some railings left since he replaces them with stanchion posts ...

    Perfectionist ... Your redos do have an advantage for us watchers .... we can enjoy your craftmanship to the full. Looking rather spiffy ... and your are certainly not a "dead fish"
  19. cog
    I can't airbrush in winter, so I'll just wait till the season changes ... I get something else to do. It does make it harder to continue though
  20. cog
    "My helper take a nap" You mean:"Is pushing me of the couch for a well deserved rest" ...
  21. cog
    Never would have thought about that ... You're becoming quite the cook ...
  22. cog
    I wouldn't mind a lemonade ... Nice covered rubbish, mate. What did you use for tarpaulin, plastic bag? I love the paint, and weathering you've given her ... nothing to obvious ...
  23. cog
    She must have had a severe bomb blast near the rungs So am I. That's why I buy multiple sets from a single size, instead of various sizes. I use 0.3 mm most
  24. cog
    You've added some wonderful detail to her, Nils. She is really filling out to be a lovely spirited lady
  25. cog
    I wouldn't have expected the decks to be pine, as it dents very easily ... sailors with bare feet ... splinters ...

About the NRG

If you enjoy building ship models that are historically accurate as well as beautiful, then The Nautical Research Guild (NRG) is just right for you.

The Guild is a non-profit educational organization whose mission is to “Advance Ship Modeling Through Research”. We provide support to our members in their efforts to raise the quality of their model ships.

The Nautical Research Guild has published our world-renowned quarterly magazine, The Nautical Research Journal, since 1955. The pages of the Journal are full of articles by accomplished ship modelers who show you how they create those exquisite details on their models, and by maritime historians who show you the correct details to build. The Journal is available in both print and digital editions. Go to the NRG web site (www.thenrg.org) to download a complimentary digital copy of the Journal. The NRG also publishes plan sets, books and compilations of back issues of the Journal and the former Ships in Scale and Model Ship Builder magazines.
