    We have all been there!

    It would. I used files on my first build to square off the top of the mast. You can also go the other way of using square stock and rounding off the trunk of the mast. Particularly useful for top masts given the change in shapes across the length.

    It did, but the stock looks like it is on upside down?

    Enjoy your well deserved break!

    Very nice work. Mind you that water looks fresh, cannot have been at sea too long. I am sure your tars will prefer rum 🧉

    Excellent save! That looks very striking, love it.
  8. Craigie65
    Yip, I will be watching out for this one being put on sale. Plus should be small enough to hide from the admiral 🤞

    Excellent build and a credit to your fleet. You powered through the rigging in short time. The name plate is a nice touch.

    Wow, if Flirt is up to the level of the Pinnace then just wow!

    Thank Dan, Need to get my order into Amazon

    She is a lovely ship; excellent, clean build. The flag is very realistic, how did you do that? You have given me the inspiration to get back on with my current build - thank you. Looking forward to your next log.

    Don’t know if this helps, but in the AOTS for Diana this is labelled as the sheer line

    Beautiful!

    Sturdy little thing isn’t she. Enjoy your holiday and try not to think of your shipyard too much!

    I love these kits. It is amazing how far you can get in an afternoon. Looking forward to see this one planked.

    Always been fascinated by a cross section model. If you don’t mind I will pull up a chair.

    Hello Pierre, Click on your avatar to go to your account. At the top of the background banner you should see account settings. Click on that. On the left hand side you should see a list - at the bottom is signature. You can add the info there

    Wiki was in your face - big section saying they needed donations. TBH I didn’t see the green strap line, too easy to overlook.
  22. Craigie65
    Pulling up a chair. looking forward to the build Andrew
  23. Craigie65
    Wow! Looks first class to me, you are doing a grand job. You cannot see any bleed in the pictures, even when blown up. We are often our own harshest critics. The colour scheme is really striking. I do like that shade of green. Looking forward to her being fitted out.
  24. Craigie65
    Hey Dan, Found your log and will pull up the proverbial chair. Looking good so far, she has really sharp lines. On the coppering, my vote would be for the pre cut plates. Don’t fancy having to cut all those individually from a roll of tape……

    Excellent work. Nice touch with the ensign.

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.
