Adrieke, For the next time if you're struggling with a paint tube. Don't press on, but try to open it up through the top with an awl or something a like. It will save you some paint, and frustration.

It does look like you look to a lighted piece of deck in the dark, or a piece of a deck in the spot light. Looks superb. NICE- 487 replies

That's a very impressive build you have on your hands. I like the details you show. Could you show the size of them? (take a picture with a euro cent, or a ruler) C'est vraiment super! -
Dished that up pretty fast, and it does look easy enough to DIY! Thanks for showing!

Danny, How much room is there left between those 'bits'(?) and the cisterns, i.e. can you still pull a rope through? From here it looks like they are touching, which they are probably not.

She looks great. Wonderful work on the window and the frame. You are to right not making a complete roof. The material for model boats seems never to be thin enough. What did you use for the windscreen/window?

Dan, You took your time getting there mate I'm glad you're on the roll again, as will you certainly. You have a magnificent start with the pump and cistern. It looks real sharp. As with Remco's build, I'm glad I reread it, for there are quite a few things I missed the first time. I'll probably go through it again, as I will certainly have missed things again. Good to have you back at the work bench!!!

Jason, When/If yo stain the links dark they'll suddenly turn out smaller It does look good, but a bit long ... I would expect the chain to be attached below the stern.

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.
