have you thought up a way to hide the wires as they run along the mid ship opening on the spar deck? if you affix them along the inner bulwarks, you'll still have the lights and the wires and stuff will be hidden

yes sir......you still have a lot of ground {hull} to cover looks very nice! how about 'grabber blue'.......rather than me cluttering your log with a picture of one of my models.....look in the gallery for either the Nordkap, or the Mary Ann. that's grabber blue....not as neon looking.

my Sergal Thermopylae was the first model where I've ever had to remove the bulwark posts....I found it to be a problem, because the bulwarks becoming cracked was an issue. so it was probably good that you waited. knowing that I would have to do this, I didn't cement the planking to the posts, but rather I did between the planking that would not touch the posts. I'm also doing the Billing's Half Moon.......it is similar to the Santa Maria. on that one I had to add posts.....not enough with just the bulkhead posts. I noticed you made an adjustment to fit the brass decoration on the stern bulwarks. now that you've added the futtock riders, did you leave enough room for the decoration? your last picture looks like you did looks great Julian....you've done a superb job so far

hello Julian....thanks for peek'in in. I have the trawler, the Boulogne, the Thermopylae, and of course.......that silly Jolly Rogers on the tables at the moment........any one of them could see an update. I'm kinda holding off on the others......but you never know, I could get a brain storm on something or other. all I can say, is keep an eye on the right hand side of the forum page, and with any luck, i'll get something to show up there I appreciate ya look'in in thanks again

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.
