    Gotcha. 👍

    Outstanding job on the cannons! I’m unfamiliar with the “Admiralty” model method. What kind of lines and ropes are omitted? Rigging?
  3. Dave_E
    Don’t hijack the thread. 😀👍 Thanks for your detailed explanations on your build Ed!

    Insane micro-modeling! You have a talent that most would not endeavor to even try (me included). Finish line is near. 👍😀

    Congratulations Mark! Nicely done… top shelf! 👍😀

    I concur with KP. 👍

    You mentioned canopy glue again. Did you say once you got from Hobby Lobby?

    Are all those ribs card? They look like wood.

    Outstanding build Sir! Top shelf. 👍😀

    I can’t get over the level of detail and small stuff! Those rudder pedals are amazing. So is that left hand side console! 👍😀

    Hi Sam, welcome aboard! 👍😀

    Well said Joe! 👍

    I’m with you, wrong word on my part. 👍😀

    Unless you scratch built the control panel with all the levers… it’s easy to see the quality differences in kits available. The P-40 I’m working on has no where near the level of detail this kit has.

    OUTSTANDING build Sir! Top shelf! 👍😀

    Hang them from your favorite man area ceiling!

    I am definitely in! 😄

    Looks great! 👍😀 Reminds me of my HO train days, used the same stuff.

    Outstanding Ken! Inspirational build. 👍😀

    So says the master “planker”. 😆I have seen builds that save planking for later, I too wondered why they would do that.

    Good Friday to All, It has begun! 😄 Wasn’t as hard as I thought it would be. Actually the hardest part was overthinking, looking at the drawings until my eyes hurt and looking at all the build logs to decide where to start. I almost went with the hull planking first, but I remembered how I manhandled the Lady Nelson and thought I’d surly snap the gun port framing over and over. I know it looks a little crude, but when I’m down to the wales, then I’ll break out the sandpaper and clean up the ports.
  23. Dave_E
    Indeed! 👍
  24. Dave_E
    Really nice Ken! I like the bottom paint you went with as apposed to the murky tan color MS suggests.
  25. Dave_E
    That level of detail is just insane! Ah, I don't think my Rattlesnake is going to get this level of craftsmanship. I'm just not that good and dont have the tooling. I admire those that have the talent, tools and patience. 👍 You are not cluttering up my log. 😀 I'm not sure what I'll do. Save it for another day and press on.

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.
