    Chuck, I've really enjoyed the expansion of this thread from what I thought was originally just a simple question, just goes to show how much fun everybody can have when the get involved with a hobby!! The biggest problem I had was trying to match the on line MARA colours with pictures of models....nothing seemed to match up, which gels with your comment about colours looking different when laid up as rope. I'm dying to get going with my new Syren Ropewalk! 😉 The darker color on your test rope looks to match the referenced model very well and would look great on a light coloured model (opinion from a novice!) . Maybe a shade or two lighter than you normal "tarred" might just give a little variation if you aren't sold on all one colour... Thanks for all the information you freely share, it is really helpful! Dale.

    Newby question...!! I'm looking forward to having a go at making scale ropes with my incoming rope walk.... I had a look at the available colors for Mara thread - I thought there may be a few similar but different hues but the range is expansive! What colors (numbers) do you use for standing and running rigging? Thanks! Dale

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.
