    Beautifully crafted as usual, Matiz!

    Which Fein model do you have, Kurt?

    We all love original artefacts, Dafi; but there are so few of them!

    Note that this draught is early enough that the boxing around the hawseholes is indicated by the rectangular blank area.

    Now, all you need to do is take two photos (fore and aft), lens correct for distortion and stitch them together!

    Thank you, Matle!

    Learning never stops....

    Sorry to read of your mishap with the lamp. How frustrating! Progress looks good, though.

    Nice back yard, Toni. And a good recovery - both on your model and from the bottle! Swallow is beginning to look very ship-shape indeed. Sequence of construction is really important!

    Congratulations on the publication of the English version of your book, Adrián!

    Just found your log. I'm impressed by both your first planking job and the theatrical head-dresses that you've designed and made (I've a theatre background). Well done on both counts.

    Great gratings - or is that grate greatings? Either way, they are really nice, as is the deck.
  14. druxey
    Well, here's hoping....
  15. druxey
    Ahh... what a prospect! If only.

    That should frighten the enemy! Headwork looks beautiful.

    Beautifully done as usual, Adrián.

    Fairing the bulwarks in at bow and stern looks very tricky. Excellent result!

    Love the hooked spirketting strakes! It's too bad that so much detail will be hidden later.
  20. druxey
    Do you have to use CA?
  21. druxey
    A pretty respectable first attempt, I'd say. I find it easier to make maquettes at x4 size, in your case ¾" = 1' 0".
  22. druxey
    Looking forward to progress reports on this project!
  23. druxey
    Excellent! The tiller and sweep with the tackle look great.

    Dafi: I remembered seeing this illustration somewhere, but couldn't hunt it down. So you can't locate the source either?

    Comments like that will put you in 'arm's way, Steven! Your model is looking more and more impressive.

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.
