How do you all choose your next build?
Michael Mash replied to Meekes's topic in Wood ship model kits
Go with what you love. If you love two (or three) at the same time . . . Well, that can be quite a problem. -
Nice work. Those stern decorations down to the waterline are wonderful. Mike

USS Constitution by mtbediz - 1:76
Michael Mash replied to mtbediz's topic in - Build logs for subjects built 1751 - 1800
Beautiful photos. The views of the ruins are fascinating. Thank you! -
The 9ct gold ram would be impressive. If it were my project, I would be tempted. But maybe . . . it would fail the "authenticity" test. I don't think the Greeks used it.

After reading about your Blowtorches, Coal Fires and Hammer bashing, I send an enthusiastic round of applause. I think this is how they (The Greeks) would have done it! Humor aside, your ram looks good, and this project deserves the effort you are putting into it. Mike

Anyone out there working on a card model?
Michael Mash replied to gagliano1770's topic in Card and Paper Models
Hello Clare. There is a build log at Papermodelers.com. Thanks for the compliment. The build is a little rough, but as long as I am enjoying it, I'll keep working on it. -
Anyone out there working on a card model?
Michael Mash replied to gagliano1770's topic in Card and Paper Models
Noticed this thread only today. Here are a pair of photos of my scratch build card/paper model experiment. It is a 1:250 scale “generic” Carrack from the late 16th or early 17th century. If it ends up successful, I will add finished photos to an album in the Gallery. Mike -
The NRG office is back open

Many here are trusting that your recovery is going well. There is an old saying: “Trust . . . and verify” Can you provide some “verification” Mary? Best Regards, Mike -
The Mossy Shipyard by Bryan Woods - 1:1
Michael Mash replied to Bryan Woods's topic in Non-ship/categorised builds
Hello Bryan. Excellent photos and good news. Now that we know both, what is going on inside (Nave Egizia) and what is going on outside (air conditioning) of the Mossy Shipyard. I see no reason to be any less envious than I was last time I read an update. And with all those shade trees keeping your cooling bills low, and with your wife cheering you on from the far inside corner of the shipyard, you should have enough money and motivation to not only finish the Nave Egizia, but to leap forthrightly and enthusiastically into the next project. Godspeed. Mike -
The NRG office is back open

That' good news Mary. Perhaps a little activity (not too much) will help with recovery. I am curious: Was the knee problem on the same side at the hip surgery?

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.
