You may still need a spreader bar or two near the base of the shrouds though Denis. cheers Pat

Stunning Denis; those standoff shots in particular make the model looks so life-like (colour and atmosphere). Nice work mate, that detail really pops; especially like the little things like the brass handrails etc. cheers Pat

Nice work again on those 25s Greg; that ship sure had some close range fire power. 28 of this miniscule things; not just cross-eyed but a bit of a headache also I'd guess? cheers Pat

That is a great bit of detailing Greg, looks really good and I like the idea you have for hanging a float plane from it. cheers Pat

A small update, the frames/temp bulkheads have now been fitted in a basic jig. The longitudinal temp stiffener has yet to be glued and will be done after I straighten a couple of the frames. The eagle eyed will note a couple of frames not quite aligned; some of this is due to camera angle. Gluing in the longitudinal stiffener will help keep them in place vertically, but first I need to fix/redo at least one of the frames. This system works quite well and was well laid out by Dave when he did the artwork as I did not need to do much filing for fit at all. The holes in the temp bulkhead (which will be broken away later) were for a toothpick to pass through to assist with alignment, but at this scale almost impossible to utilise and too fiddly. Sorry all, I forgot the ruler again but this is only about 80mm long (just over 3") overall. 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.
