    Amati offers this model in two different scales: 1/80 (as described) and 1/35. In my opinion, one is a little bit too small to appreciate the details and the exquisite shape of the hull and the other one is frankly speaking way too large for most display rooms. I wish they could still offer the one in 1/48th or 1/50 as it is called in Europe: https://www.scalemates.com/kits/amati-1700-85-endeavour-j-class--990605 Yves

    I wonder if the Wipe on Poly will make the wood darker.... Sometimes, it does that on very light wood, such as maple. Yves

    I was lucky enough to see about 6 of them flying in formation at Oshkosh,WI a few years ago. Quite a sight, in the air and on the ground. Yves

    You should use the spare located in the front trunk.... Yves

    Beautiful and lovely model. You did a fantastic job on this BB kit. Yves

    Great build of a rarely described model. Yves

    Charming little boat. Great work putting it together. Yves

    That is a beautiful part. The galleries (toilet rooms) were by far the most difficult and challenging parts of the CAF kit of the HMS Bellona, that I put together. I wish I had something of that nature, 3D printed. You did a great job at creating these complex parts with your software. Yves

    Funny how the words sound the same. In French, shrimp is a "crevette". Very close to the "Krevetka". Yves

    Fantastic idea for the presentation. Yves
  31. yvesvidal
    This is going to be a spectacular diorama. Yves

    Far from total crap: it is actually very good and convincing. Yves

    I love dioramas.... I know that you will surprise us once again. Yves

    I see that you ended up not installing the anchors on the ship. Your stand is beautiful and I love that blue color picturing the oceans. Yves

    Excellent choice. My favorite fighter. Yves

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.
