    Ok, working hard now Or trying to I am finding it a little difficult to understand the instructions Assemble rudder and attach with fittings to the sternpost I guess I will lay everything out in front of me and hopefully it will become obvious And this is supposed to be a beginners kit Ah well I got all the time in the world Well actually I don't have a lot of time at all, but I will be getting on with it Copied here from Endeavour log

    Hi Sjors As you know I have not had a minute to spare this last month or so That is why I only just noticed this I hardly ever turn the big computer on so I don't surf properly Anyway I am here now Here I am, out in the hall I brought my own chair and will try and keep up but I am not promising I hardly get any time to do my models without keeping track of everyone else's I will do my best though Keep up the good work

    That planking looks a really good job Adriaan I know it's difficult with photos but it looks good enough to paint now Have you got much more to do on it ??? I am really falling behind as I don't seem to have hardly any time spare
  11. Micklen32
    Totally speechless
  12. Micklen32
    Very nice job Slog They look absolutely spot on I wish I had your application I do tend to rush things a bit sometimes
  13. Micklen32
    That is a real shame Grant, but as we all know, so easily done It'll get right again though, it's just a question of putting it behind you Good luck with it
  14. Micklen32
    Looking real good Adriaan Real smooth Doing the Will I know that if you are painting you need smooth You are getting it Gratz

    I am doing a bit of painting when I get the chance but what with the drying time etc........ Also The Admiral is taking quite a bit of my time It will get done soon I hope There's just not that much time left free at the moment
  16. Micklen32
    I am not going to read this
  17. Micklen32
    Hmmmmm!!!!!!!! Well I got my 'Disabled' club tomorrow Hopefully can get to it the day after I don't know what happened to me having loads of spare time It's like being at work
  18. Micklen32
    Well I did hope to get a bit of painting done the last couple of days But things transpired against me
  19. Micklen32
    Simply perfect work Tom The attention to detail is tremendous I certainly think I will give the OcCre version a go when I am done with the ones I have It will be interesting to see just how different they are
  20. Micklen32
    Yeah spot on SjorsIt was purely to get some paint on the wood so it dried right in and hopefully only will need one careful coat now I also wanted an idea how the colours matched I should get it painted properly in the next day or two
  21. Micklen32
    I hope everyone had a great Christmas day I did an hours very rough painting to the deck today to see if I had the idea right after seeing a photo of a real deck So what do you think ?? As I say it is very rough and is just to get a coat on ready for some accurate painting Not much of the actual deck will in fact be visible
  22. Micklen32
    HERE'S HOPING EVERYONE HERE HAS A FANTASTIC CHRISTMAS AND LET US LOOK FORWARD TO A FRUITFUL NEW YEAR
  23. Micklen32
    Just to keep you up to date This is only fairly rough painting to get a base before doing it very carefully That is roughly what the hull will look like Just hopefully a lot neater
  24. Micklen32
    Ah I see Sjors I presumed as you had ratlined right across that the climbey up bit was a lot wider I can't wait to see it finished
  25. Micklen32
    No Sjors You have totally lost me I am seeing five of eight shrouds fitted and then the ratlines How are you going to fit the final three shrouds and knot them in to the ratlines ???????????????????? I cannot see it and I don't understand

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.
