    That is correct for British ships at that time period, HH.

    I suppose you could bend the toptimber - if you made it of pasta!
  3. druxey
    Yes, HH. The area where the gun carriage trucks traversed were done in 'top and butt' and of oak, not deal.
  4. druxey
    That's one nice way to show the underlying structures.
  5. druxey
    Mooselookmeguntic? More like 'Moose look gigantic'! Either way, this subject looks interesting.
  6. druxey
    Please don't cover that all beautiful framing up completely with planking!
  7. druxey
    Is the material the deadeyes are made from really suitable at that size and scale? How frustrating for you.
  8. druxey
    Superb as usual, Valeriy. I've found model-making a good way of reducing stress. Heartfelt best wishes in these uncertain days.
  9. druxey
    Looks right!

    Beautiful work, terrible news.
  11. druxey
    Very nice and methodical!
  12. druxey
    Whew! A lengthy procedure rather, I suspect. like walking a high wire. Glad you didn't fall off! Terrific result.
  13. druxey
    Those furled sails look as good as any I've seen. Nice work.
  14. druxey
    Looking good, Toni!

    Never use oil finish anywhere you will need to glue anything onto later!
  16. druxey
    Looking really good!
  17. druxey
    How much planking are you planning to add, Kevin?
  18. druxey
    Very nice! Are you going to put lighting inside so that the interior can be seen?
  19. druxey
    Nicely done!
  20. druxey
    I agree with Roger; real gilding appears too garish at scale sizes (at least, to my eye and taste).
  21. druxey
    Great progress, Valeriy.
  22. druxey
    Oh, my! There seem to be a lot of MSW modelers' work falling off workbenches lately. There must a disturbance in the Force.... Great recovery, Daniel.
  23. druxey
    Looks like you did an excellent job of shaping the water closets, Bob. Well done!
  24. druxey
    Bitt pins that pass through more than one deck will vary in length to fit your particular model. Unless you can build with micrometer precision, every model will vary slightly from the ideal.

    Well played, Bob!

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.
