    Great progress Sjors; and she is looking very good. Nice job of the rattlin! cheers Pat
  2. BANYAN
    That's a real 'Jim Dandy' of a Pinnace Dave; looks very good indeed. cheers Pat
  3. BANYAN
    That's a very good finish Greg, just the right amount of shading and highlight to make out the the armour belt panels. From this angle at least, the shadow for the various downpipes etc are just right also. cheers Pat
  4. BANYAN
    Looks good Carl, an impressive amount of PE detail which will give the model a very detailed finish. cheers Pat
  5. BANYAN
    That looks great Dave, nice recovery job cheers Pat
  6. BANYAN
    Thanks Dashi, how goes things? Long time no hear I hope you are finding time for your build also? cheers Pat

    Well folks I have found this online so I believe I can say which movie it will be part of http://if.com.au/2017/01/23/article/Shane-Jacobson-and-Magda-Szubanski-to-lead-cast-of-The-BBQ/HWBLGNPJXT.html and also this: http://www.dailytelegraph.com.au/entertainment/sydney-confidential/shane-jacobsons-latest-comedy-flick-the-bbq-a-labour-of-love-ill-never-say-no-to-a-sausage/news-story/4132a782c9de40c5559b8f97e5cc54af cheers Pat

    Looking good Steve; a lot of sanding as you say but worth the effort. cheers Pat
  9. BANYAN
    I like the white framing and base for the case, sets the model and its baseboard cradle oiff nicely Russ cheers Pat
  10. BANYAN
    Nice production line Michael Your approach to all this is enlightening; I am following with great interest. cheers Pat
  11. BANYAN
    Congratulations Druxey; I am sure the new owner will enjoy displaying that little beauty. cheers Pat
  12. BANYAN
    oops Glad you were able to extract and repair it John - Don't you just hate those moments? That is a really nice looking model, will she be going home with you or remain at the museum? cheers Pat
  13. BANYAN
    Looking good Carl, a lot of good detail that will make these guns look great in-situ. cheers Pat

    I have not worked with boxwood much Vossie, but is it possible that it has natural oils and that this concentrates in some places more than others? As to the counter I think black would contrast quite well with the near white of holly and make the holly really pop - no harm in painting a bit of black on some off cut and use it as a visual reference/comparison? cheers Pat
  15. BANYAN
    you've really got a grip of this airbrushing lark now Greg, looks very good. cheers Pat
  16. BANYAN
    Unfortunately, I can't say too much due to "Disclosure Limitations" Denis. The movie is fiction and very loosely connected the ship. They needed a model for the final scene and I had the only model available - so not about the model cheers Pat
  17. BANYAN
    Will be good to see you back in the shipyard Denis; hopefully you are well and truely on the mend this time. cheers Pat

    No progress on the boats as I have been concentrating on researching and building HMCSS Victoria. Just thought I would let folk know that my Endeavour is to be used as a film prop in a forthcoming movie being shot in Melbourne - I can't release details but it will feature prominently at the end of the movie and while the credits roll. A nice little 'return' for all the hours spent. So off to the shoot today. cheers Pat
  19. BANYAN
    Looks pretty good Vossie, the second layer has a very good base. It seems you have tamed the beast cheers Pat
  20. BANYAN
    She's seen some serious sea-time this one; that is very effective weathering Greg. cheers Pat
  21. BANYAN
    ...and slowly she emerges That is really looking like the form of yet another very nice set of lines Russ cheers Pat
  22. BANYAN
    Mark, what about taking a bit off the ends of a few of the after runs (the amount equal to a beam separation distance). If done at random, would this not generate the staggered butt pattern? I am assuming the planks are only dry fitted though? cheers Pat
  23. BANYAN
    Great progress Dave, your build is looking very good. A very helpful resource in those drawings; wish I could find something like that for my research. cheers Pat
  24. BANYAN
    That's great progress Russ with a nice transition for the rabbet. cheers Pat
  25. BANYAN
    Hi Sport and Pfalz, If you are interested just contact Michael via a PM; that's what I did. cheers Pat

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.
