    Many people have done just that. It can look really good when well executed. Andy

    May the tear out be theraputic and satisfying!

    Looks like you're off to a good start. I'm holding off on mine until I get my Pegasus finished (I'm guessing another year or so for that), so I can concentrate exclusively on the Confed. It has all the hallmarks of a masterfully executed kit. Did you get the canon and figurehead replacements from Chuck? Andy

    See Sjors! I told you he was up to something! Still don't know exactly what..... That Popeye can be real cagey when he want's to be.. Andy

    I dunno Sjors..... he's up to something....

    Great start, and good choice for your firts build. I'm sure you'll enjoy building her. Another resource for tools that is local to both you and I, is George's Trains in Markham. Clamps, pin vices, files, paint, whatever Andy

    Sounds like a typical teenager reaction if you ask me Ship looks incredible too BTW Andy
  9. realworkingsailor
    Easy.. just hand Sjors a broom and point him in right direction..
  10. realworkingsailor
    No Sjors... he's from Colorado... that makes him Mountain Man
  11. realworkingsailor
    Multi build ??! Am I missing something here? Just what exactly ARE you upto? And more importantly.... should I be concerned for your well being? Andy
  12. realworkingsailor
    Hmm.... to be honest... I think the Hobbyist ADD award rightly goes to Popeye.... Pulling a Sjors is only H-ADD for beginners.. Anyway, good luck with this next project, I'll be following along Andy

    I think he's been quietly building up his arsenal.... Hiding it in vaious places around town to keep Anja from discovering it.... And then sneeking in at night and surreptitiously adding more guns and ammo to his ships.... Andy

    Thanks BE It seems with some things there are definite hard and hast rules as to how they where done, but with others, there's nothing certain (and lots of conjecture and opinions.. ) Personally, I like a little variation here and there... keep things interesting, or at the very least give people something to talk about. Andy
  15. realworkingsailor
    Yeah.. I can see a lot of potential frustration is possible with something that small and fragile.... but I think the results will be worth the effort. Looks great so far. Andy
  16. realworkingsailor
    Very nice! And you can curse summer all you want... at least you can choose to build, if you so desire... **Mutter mutter** Stupid reality..... Sorry... didn't get any sleep last night... aside from a 2 hour period of dying fish impressions (you know.. lying in bed.. flop.....flop......flop flop............flop flap)... no sleep in over 24 hours... Andy
  17. realworkingsailor
    I think I need something with a little more kick than popcorn..... **Shudder**
  18. realworkingsailor
    **Rattle, rattle, rattle, rattle**
  19. realworkingsailor
    You've been busy! Very nicely done Andy
  20. realworkingsailor
    Aww...thanks Frank...
  21. realworkingsailor
    Where's Anja when you really need her.......?
  22. realworkingsailor
    Way to go Sjors... you woke up the Mississippi Peacemaker..... Now we're all screwed.....with a capital "F".....
  23. realworkingsailor
    Yeah.. that's what I thought..... although I thought I caught something about fishing too...
  24. realworkingsailor
    Hey Augie... your halo is a little bent and rusty......
  25. realworkingsailor
    And just what intended purpose is that exactly?

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.
