    Another outstanding build Chris! 👏
  17. AJohnson
    A quick update, the masts are finished and moving on to the final assemblies on the hull such as chain plates. Next up adding the blocks and rigging to the yards before finally commencing rigging! 😬 Thanks for the likes.
  18. AJohnson
    Indeed, very impressive Alan!
  19. AJohnson
    Wow, that depth charge looks so neat Chris, very precise work!
  20. AJohnson
    Really good to see you back at this one Dave! 🍿

    Welcome to MSW! Great first model!
  23. AJohnson
    Very nice Adrian!

    Welcome to MSW!

    The Carronade rig does look very neat, I found 2mm blocks a real challenge rigging the cannons on Trial, will be following to see how you get along. Do you use magnifying glasses?
  26. AJohnson
    Very nice Alan, and like you say a change from a standing figure! 👏
  27. AJohnson
    An update! A bit overdue, but progress is slowly being made, I just needed some time to update my log instead of looking at everyone else's on MSW! 😁 The main mast has also now largely been constructed, using the same techniques as the others with various card and styrene rod embellishments for the mast hoops and reinforcements. I also used wire for the stanchions of the fighting tops rear handrail; I didn't fancy the chances of delicate wood stanchions surviving my rigging efforts later, or the chances of me adding the handrail once the rigging is on. Also been tying blocks to the masts as I have been going along, so as not to leave all that to do in one hit. Hopefully the next update (not as long a time gap as this one! 🤞) will be the masts completed. Then on to adding blocks to the yards, before the dreaded "R" word we don't mention.... Thanks for looking in. 👋

    Great finish Dan!
  29. AJohnson
    Superb work again Alan, I keep forgetting these are only 54mm figures! You certainly like your small models, great painting skills.
  30. AJohnson
    Very good planking, the Sherbourne has lovely lines, shown off well by your careful work.

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.
