    Here's another update. I am finished with the pilot house and stairs. I added the doors, lights, compass binnacle, wheel, engine controls, window frames, stairs, shelves, chart table and the antennas. The instructions suggested that I paint the antennas silver, but all the images I have of the original Pauline show them as white. So, that is how I painted them. The door on the starboard side is attached in the open position. The pilot house was challenging for my skill level, but I am happy with my results. It's not perfect, but most of the wooden work boats that I have

    @alross2 Thanks Al! I'm finding the challenge both rewarding and sometimes frustrating. But, afterall, it's my second build and I'm learning a lot!

    The instructions and BlueJacket say that the pilot house is a complicated build and that I should take my time. At least for me, this turned out to be true. Many of the laser cut pieces are very delicate, so I did spend some time repairing pieces that I broke. That being said, I'm pretty happy with my progress so far. I still have several steps left before the pilot house is complete. I added a sheet, spread and pillow to the captain's cabin. Since, the vessel was launched in 1948, I added a picture of Marilyn Monroe from 1948. Here are some oth

    I think drawing blood with a hobby knife must be a right of passage. I cut myself on my Red Baron build too.

    Didn't want you all to think I was idle. 😂 I am working on building out all the deck structures. Currently working on the pilot house; priming and sanding before construction. In the following image you can see the forward hatch, companion way, hatch covers, pilot house deck and the pieces I'm sanding and priming.

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.
