    The Admiral is always right, and in this case very nice improvement! That is a beautiful transom (correct term?)!

    Yeah Chris. Much improved 3d effect. I find with plastic models that a wash after picking the highs and lows can blend and soften in a way that is pleasing to the eye. Too bad you don't have extra pieces to play with though.

    Good to see her again Chris!

    (Obviously the wood and "glass" aspects look wonderful!)

    The only comment I can offer is that if the pellet is lead it may not be the best choice for a long lasting solution? I think lead is subject to oxidation/disintegration over long periods of time. https://www.navsea.navy.mil/Home/Warfare-Centers/NSWC-Carderock/Resources/Curator-of-Navy-Ship-Models/Lead-Corrosion-in-Exhibition-Ship-Models/ (Hat tip to user Bob Cleek who cited the above in the following MSW thread: )

    Scary stuff drilling holes in fine bulkheads. Well done!
  28. Coyote_6
    Beautiful work and what an awesome and unique gift! Fun watching it come together!
  29. Coyote_6
    Copper looks very nice sir.
  30. Coyote_6
    Very nice work!
  31. Coyote_6
    For what it's worth, #1 is good but #2 just ROCKS!! #2 for me sir.

    Phil - it goes without saying but your Albatros is simply stunning. Well well done! When you look at her, make sure you realize how many people you have helped in this hobby with your research, advice and kindness. I would say I will miss the Albatros but I can absolutely guarantee I will revisit these posts for technical insight and motivation for many many years to come! Thanks for bringing us aboard Phil. Phenomenal!!

    That is a crop of a picture of the replica U.S. Brig Niagara in Cleveland, 2010, from an article in The Plain Dealer. (Photo credit John Kuntz?) It is pretty low res! 😭 https://www.cleveland.com/metro/2010/06/cleveland_students_help_bring.html The 1812 era is probably my favorite for tall ships. Currently I am working the 1812 privateer Prince de Neufchatel. Next up will likely be Constructo's Enterprise (1799), and finally in my stash is the Model Shipways 1:76 Constitution. I am a little daunted by Constitution, especially after following your efforts here! The complexity is astounding. Hopefully completing the Prince and Enterprise will prepare me for what's ahead!! But I mean, c'mon. Your ship's bell?? That would take me 6 months and still not look as nice. Beautiful work Glen!
  34. Coyote_6 started following Glen McGuire

    Glen - I just watched the video. Paraphrasing Tom Hanks - "There's no crying in model shipbuilding!!" Just beautiful. Constitution is magnificent and you guys have represented her just so well. It would take a ship in the bottle guy to finish her up with all those tight spaces. Take a bow sir, and thanks for letting us follow along!

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.
