    If you go for Tamiya's Yamato, watch out for the differences in PE there are some which look like the new, but are for the old tool, and vice versa. Also a rather large price difference in the PE versions. I saw one for the old tool at AUS$ 300+ whilst the new one was around AUS$160 (both Pontos) Furthermore, the Pontos PE has far more parts than some others I've seen.

    Must have been seductive Becky whom started you off the detail trail ...

    Your rigging, standing and running, is really confusing ... so many. I would be lost if I had to set her up properly

    Even at maximum enlargement it is still darn small, Buck, and still very impressive despite it's size!!!

    Doesn't look very comfortable, just looking at it gives me pain in my but, you could have scratch build a bit more comfort Very nicely doen Robin!!

    I remembered Wintergreen making a steambox http://modelshipworld.com/index.php/topic/9951-sea-of-galilee-boat-by-wintergreen-sort-of/page-2#entry303750, couple of planks and a steam source ... might be a bit of an overkill for the size of the wood you are bending

    Nothing beats manual labour

    Any fitting screwdrivers for sale ...!?!?!? That looks stunning (with a magnifying glass), Buck. Miniature masterclass ...

    thank you, it puts the ship and the size of the details in perspective

    Sam, I've got the Musashi (go rin no sho would mean something to you ... considering the shingen on the wall, or is it a true blade ...) waiting for me to start. Some home improvement first though. I'll be looking forward to see your Akagi take form ...

    So when will that be (the wedding). Don't worry about the time ticking away ... we'll be waiting ...

    Nenad, I wouldn't mind how they looked, i.e. the heads, I just want to be able to use them ... when the pressure is mounting ... I like that pump on the side, don't have it at home ...

    You've got a giant match stick too, like Igor. Considering the size of your flutist, it really nocks me socks off, wonderful work, Steven

    Yeah, right Bob. You are really full of yourself ... keep on bragging then my friend (more pictures), for it does you credit

    Cheers mate, that clarified the lot for this poor sod

    Cabrapente, A qué escala se construye, esos detalles se ven maravillosa (at what scale do you build, those details look marvelous)

    What on earth do you mean, it sounds like double Dutch (which I should be able to decipher) as a DD (Daft Dutchman)
  18. cog
    Modest as always. Fabulous work Bob!

    You took this build with a running start ... good to have you back. I knew you couldn't resist us ... so what's up next ???
  20. cog
    If really desperate ... make a sinking model diorama. Not the nicest way to finish it, but you only need parts of the super structure, chimey, etc (I know ... I'll get back to my corner) (whilst retreating ...) The advantage of wood is you can cut the sore spot out and replace it ... I'm not familiar enough with plastic if that is at all possible ...
  21. cog
    You had some spare time on your hands right??? At least it looks that way. Fortunately you can now switch between builds when on is drying, or when you are waiting for some building materials. She looks good ... you are like a small whirl wind ...

    Have a safe trip back home!

    Nice work. I like the colour scheme of the planking, it shows clearly the way they run from aft to fore. Have a nice vacation and enjoy your visit to the Constitution
  24. cog
    No worries Johann, that's why we're here

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.
