    Dick, I can only see it based on the degrees between the horizontal and vertical. Hope this is clear enough to you ... I haven't seen anything on the subject, but my experience is limited. Maybe one of the architects on this forum can help you out? Cheers

    As Mike wrote: satin is fine Brian. Or leave it bare. If you need to glue some furniture, you might want to wait for that to be fixated. Cheers

    Marvelous job on the superstructure, Greg. It is coming along nicely. I recently got a magazine/book which has some pretty clear views on the rigging. I'll send you a PM when I'm home and have had time to look it up

    You can, BUT you have to take the curvature into account. It may result in gaps between the planking, if you plank off ship

    Chris, There are many options to name a few: Birchwell Casey Brass Black Liver of Sulphur <- copper (thanks Grant) Liver Of Sulphur (who's next ...)

    Couldn't it be an extrusion, or a short bar, so the rope/line wouldn't slip off the knight's head ...

    Mr Bunny, I use a ceramic tile to cut PE, you can get them in all colours and sizes, no problem with scratches, and/or grooves I like those catwalks. Your images are getting better. A bit more distance from the subject I would say Cheers

    Nice work on the ladders, Jesse. I had to do mine twice, as I forgot to take into account the curvature of the deck

    Looking good!! If you keep it bundled up, Robin, you can use less cloth. It will look more natural. It's a frequently use practice ..

    Congratulations Russ. Although your story about the working vessel is very plausible, she looks brand new. Must be her maiden trip. Very beautiful build, and it was a real joy and privilege to follow it. Thanks for sharing Cheers

    Sometime in the near future I hope you will have time again to get down into your workshop ... The card model seems to be a good alternative. You might try your hand on a plastic model after that Enjoy this coming competition weekend. Cheers

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.
