    What looks to bulky? If it's the shelf, considering the thickness of the planks, you could make it thinner, but it will probably look very fragile. I would advise you to add some masts to the model, which will change the overall look of the "scenery". You'll want to stain(?) the shelf I presume ... don't give it a dark colour, which will certainly make it stand out. Start with a light and go to medium darkness from there if you do not like the light colour. Use test material before you stain definitively ... I like the way it looks. I might go for the colour of the parket (floor) ... lovely job

    Nenad, You gotta do what has precedence. Right now it's your children, the beast, and whatever else comes first. Sorry to hear about the cataract problem, fortunately you can be helped though. Just drop a note from time to time, so we know you are a life and kicking! Take care, and make the most of the little time you have now

    Same to you Nenad, Lovely rudder, or you been painting have your nails

    Good to see you back at the model again,Jeff. Nice paint job, although, the image's colour is somewhat off I presume. How's the chess goin'?

    I can hardly see the difference, Johann I wish I could be able to do the one on the left, the right hand side is out of my league ... you do have improved tremendously over the years with your brass prowess. I hope, you will not be looking for much more replacements for previously made parts !? In the end you might not be able to finish the model caused by "never ending redo's"
  18. cog
    Perhaps you should show the contrast between this and the previous version ... this one is stunning, but you'll probably find fault with it as well ...
  19. cog
    Best wishes to you, Daria, and your wife, Mike. You certainly have an understanding lady ... actually ladies, Daria can't run from her room with your contraption between the chairs ... I really look forward to the case with the protective foil removed!

    tabycz I presume you are running a windows box. Go to Administrative tools|Event viewer Select Windows Logs|Application the Column Source is the program. Check if iDraftSight shows up, you can find the problem at Level = Error

    A happy, and healthy New Year to you too. And that was merely one side ... I think I would have taken the easy way out: Use a file ... lovely piece ofwork and machine prowess
  23. cog
    Why not soft soldered instead of CA on the brass "antenna"?
  24. cog
    Greg it makes him feel rather old, and maybe he has some youth issues with the connotation Ah, now I see why you build the entire Japanese navy

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.
