    Thx Mark and Piet. Today on Orthodox Easter is our "traditional" family day. My grand pap has 4 sons, only my father (88) and two aunts are live, they have 5 kids with wifes (my generation) who has 8 kids (21-31y.old) on the way to collect (two of them have) their future husbands and wifes, to spread family, and we all use to get together who is in Serbia. All university educated, read a lot, travell a lot, interested in everything, honest, decent hard working and very nice and interesting people I like very much. Very pleasent day we have, 6 hours fly like second. All atheist, but considering four days lasting holliday, good oportunity to get together and spent wonderful time together Evening come, watching TV, I digged among hundreds, all 10 pics I have with pigpen and paint locker. Even in this positions on ship, little differences are present from time. For instance door to pigpen Interrsting to think about tehnics how to make this little net on first picture in scale 1:100, but I think I am not crazy enough. Or ... maybe I am Maybe only to carve little piggy or two, just to practice carving on my way to Nanny

    So, Cap, we have to move to Cony. How do you plan to protect Bony from dust (and Admiral's antidust madness ?)

    Thank you for kind words and likes Some tests goin' forward to Pig pen and Paint locker Thickness of grid lattices is object of test, and visual appearance of them A bit hairy ? We'll see. I have to try finding the thinnest Cu wire I have in garage for next try without hairy look. Or I am meticulous a bit. This details are deep under front deck visually covered by WC, ladder, winch (?) and entrance to twin deck This test was made from regular rope with white acrylic It seems to be a nice home for runaway Bob's piggy

    Hey Izzy, if you are able to do anything in this scale, you sure can make all model to be beaurifull !!!! Just keep on playing, and think about 3x-5x magnifier Try this Very thin, without side hairs, and you can model tail in direction you want. Just a couple if single wires are enough And wellcome to the "micro-surgery" world

    Considering tomorrow starts Orthodox Easter, free time appears, and this evening I continued aftet a while My sanguinary HL opponent (Hothead) is sleeping, so ... Stern lettering finished Finaly I can climb to decks, but before that, I realised that, at first, I must resolve min. 1 tecnical problem My working bench dates from time of building house, and was designed to be used on standing rough jobs. After finishing house, I realised it was made very very strong, and it was pitty to throw it away, so it moved in as inside work bench for different working purposes. So, work surface is leveled on 95cm under floor, which was ok when I had to work on hull and side/down parts of hull, and when was possible and usefull to rotate Her by longitudinal axe without damage. Now, when I finished bow panels, if I do not think about, damage can be easy made. When I put Her in her stirodur box in front of me, when I am sitting, She is almost leveled with my head .... hard to do precise works when She is so high So I have to lower work surface to standard 80 cm... that means that I have to do really hudge job in scatering all you can see on picture above, shorten table legs (made of roof beams 15x15cm) and mount it all again. Ough .... Or not

    You will be sad when you finish We will be sad when log comes to end So, don't rush
  13. NenadM
    Just keep on moving, nice and easy, without rush, with patience and lot of thinking, and things will fit well

    Izzy, SM was done more than 30 years ago in LEGO way, knowing nothing about ship, without any resources to leatn about. Also knowing nothing about real modeling. But I kearned something - there is no damage or mistake which can not be fixed or corrected. Depends only of your time, will, patience and ambition what do ylu expect from your model. Even a small and very simplified Heller's model of CS look interesting for accidental watchers out of this hobby. I suggest to you to organize little talk with yourself about your goals with this model you are building. Not easy conversation, but it worth. If you want challenges, go on, man!!! It still can be good looking model!!!! Even without radiaror !

    My favourite weapon is sniper in CoD. Hothead likes swords, magic etc. My tween brother likes masive MP car simulations ... no way to collect company for private tournaments ... 3 PC and 2 laptops conected to home LAN ... only two of us to play ... sometimes ... when Hothead is home Admiral likes the hardest SUDOKU she can find, Princess likes medical series ... and her Hip-hop dance club ( who is interested ) ...everybody goes to his side ... nice to see here on MSW couples who likes same hobby (Anja & Sjors) Hothead is here until monday, and he forced me to play together ... and it is really hard to force frog to wather ..

    Just a big kid inside, Dave. And a little artist hidden deep inside. Did I say I wrote poetry in my teen age. More than 200 songs/poems still somewhere on atic Watch this - today situation. El. Current missing almost whole morning, and when it comes, instead to work in office ... Hothead is home, and we ( 56y me and 24y him) played Half-life LAN multiplayer almost whole day (until Admiral gets complete mad) ... he blowed me, we must migrate to CoD to get chance to kill him once ... So, more thinking of Her than working on Her, and silly ideas and associatipns come in a bunch

    "...Well she's all you'd ever want, ... Well she always knows her place. She's got style, she's got grace, She's a winner. She's a Lady. Whoa whoa whoa, She's a Lady. Talkin' about that little lady, and the lady is mine. Well she's never in the way Something always nice to say, Oh what a blessing. I can leave her on her own Knowing she's okay alone, and there's no messing. She's a lady. Whoa, whoa, whoa. She's a lady. Talkin' about that little lady, and the lady is mine. Well she never asks for very much and I don't refuse her. Always treat her with respect, I never would abuse her. What she's got is hard to find, and I don't want to lose her Help me build a mansion from my little pile of clay. Hey, hey, hey. Well she knows what I'm about, She can take what I dish out, and that's not easy, Well she knows me through and through, She knows just what to do, and how to please me. She's a lady. Whoa, whoa, whoa. She's a lady. Talkin' about that little lady and the lady is mine. Yeah yeah yeah She's a Lady Listen to me baby, She's a Lady Whoa whoa whoa, She's a Lady And the Lady is mine Yeah yeah yeah She's a Lady Talkin about this little lady Whoa whoa whoa whoa Whoa and the lady is mine Yeah yeah She's a Lady And the Lady is mine...."

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.
