    Very good start Kutay. I like small boats like this.
  2. The Sailor
    That's a very interesting kit and a good start. Nice work Sergey.

    For me it looks neat and clean. Keep on the good work.

    Oops! It seems, I missed one of your build logs. The hull looks fantastic. Very nice work Pete.

    Hi Tom I have the plans too and I look forward to following with big interest.
  7. The Sailor
    Congratulations Hamilton. She looks fantastic.

    Nice job Eamonn. I think, you can use the 'full lenght' planks between the hatches. I did it on my Pickle too.

    Nice progress Jason. I like the modified driver boom, it looks very much better now.

    What a kit! I look forward to following with big interest.

    Very nice fleet. Well, I need a little break...

    Great work Pete. I like the colouring.

    Very nice work Michael.

    Welcome back Pete. She looks very nice.

    Good start Paul. I think, Harvey is a good choice for the first wooden ship.
  16. The Sailor
    I agree with Eamonn, althought I'm seeing only a few photos of the hull, I think you'll not need very much filler.
  17. The Sailor
    Nice! It seems to be a good kit.
  18. The Sailor
    Great work Nils - absolutely cool guns!
  19. The Sailor
    Really nice work Eamonn. Just try out the Tamiya tape, I'm very satisfied with it.

    Very nice work Eamonn. The timber looks much better than the kit supplied walnut.
  21. The Sailor
    Very good start Rob. And don't worry too much about the first planking.
  22. The Sailor
    She really looks fantastic.

    Welcome back Hamilton. BTW: VERY nice job with the rigging.

    Sorry for the late response Alfons. It's too late now - the parts are stained already. BTW, the waste would be too big. Many questions Floyd. Well, the first plank is indeed flushing with the false deck on my Endeavour. That was my interpretation of the vague instructions... For planking the bulb area you need narrow stripes. The stripes can be used just out of the box without tapering. Switching from "A" to "B" I did intuitionally. Beveling the stripes lenghtwise is only the first step you have to do, next is sanding down the 2mm stripes to the level of the "A" planking (1mm). I tapered about 10 planks of the second planking without any stealers. I think, I was just lucky with it. Thanks for stopping by David and Gary. Gary don't be afraid starting your own build log.

    Great start Floyd. Looking forward seeing the further progress. And yes, she is a monster.

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.
