    Very nimble fingers you've got, Nenad. They do look very good. It's quite a feat on that scale Cheers

    Glenn, You are positive it won't run ... it looks ... so real ... scale doesn't come to mind when you look at it ... it seems 1:1 untill you see her on those blocks or with some other reference material ... Miraculous ... Cheers

    Killing me softly with his ...... the suspense is difficult to bear, Piet ... you shouldn't torture people so much ... there should be a law against it!!! Can hardly wait ... Cheers

    Mark, Despite Robin's findings on the coat, you have made an enormous improvement - the coat too, as it was missing in your initial setup ... To take another try at that rudder coat seems the rght thing to do ... however, have you considered why the rudder coat might be left off in those other builds ... maybe it had to do with the unnatural look at the scale due to the limitations of the fabric ... you might consider a cooking adage: If it's not good (enough), don't put it on the plate ... would you really miss it if it's not on ... Cheers

    Nearly missed your build ... so don't mind me grabbing a chair and join in ... so far your build is moving fast forward Cheers

    Druxey, Can't wait to see how you will solve that fiddly bit of sculpting ... it's getting better with every post you make ...

    You're trying to replicate me

    Interesting item, that spreader, Russ I wouldn't expect a spreader formed or used that way ... maybe because I'm used to those flimsy looking metal spreaders on the average sailing boat ... Cheers

    Håkan, A very commendable build. I like the way she turned out, and especially her location and use ... Well done Cheers
  15. cog
    Now it's getting confusing with all the Igors ... whom will I be talking to next ...

    Druxey, The background looks like watercolour ... won't that pose a problem when you glue it on ...? What will you do with the edges, for those will show the paper's colour, and you used navy (prussian blue?), cobalt(?), and a petrol like colour layers ...
  17. cog
    bury ... sounds a bit morbid, and definitely not 'healthy' for a wooden build ... Cheers
  18. cog
    Nenad, You should really make it to scale .. oeps, you did ... it looks great for someone who's just playing around ... Cheers
  19. cog
    Jack, She is looking good ... I find it a pitty with these models those deck beams won't be visible after planking ... Cheers
  20. cog
    Looking solid Mark. Don't forget the coat ... Cheers
  21. cog
    David, Your attempts aren't laughable ... the merely won't mesure up to Ed's final result ... which isn;t surprising ... I would say about my chainplates in general that I got stuck in the attempt ... didn't get passed it so to say Cheers
  22. cog
    Ed, Smashing chain plates. Another learning cycle ... Cheers
  23. cog
    Slow but very good!!! Better than quick and sloppy, Jose ... take your time ...
  24. cog
    She is brilliant ... Mobbsie ... Cheers
  25. cog
    You are right, time to :) :) ... You've managed another feat! And as I predicted no for legged friend's marks on it. It does look oustanding, Mark. You've got the right to be happy and proud, as you have managed to improve on yourself jet again ... - you wouldn't want to have another go to see if you can out do yourself even more ...(?) - That rudder coat will be a piece of cake... you've got plenty of space to put it in the right spot ... Looking forward to the next step ... wonderful ... 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.
