    Table saw is absolutely amazing! With a little effort one can cut .5mm strips all day.

    So glad to hear this!
  6. ajromano
    oh I should buy one of those!

    Nice

    This ship is one of the the several wooden and plastic models I have going. My new goal in life is to finish one!

    Sorry I stopped building ships for about a year! In all honesty I tend to just build and use plans for reference. I have read a lot about planking and experimenting with small ships helps.

    Indeed! It is past the hard part, plywood does not like to bend!

    Over all this kit is a series of attempting to make squares round. I wonder if it is me or the kit.

    Trimming the plywood to uniform height, balancing bow geometry.

    Hilarious…….but so, so true.

    Fabulous! I want to something like this in 1/48 scale.

    I also am filling sanding and priming lights and tank. As well as pre assembling the internal wood “trim”.

    Red automotive puddy.

    Kit calls for 2d planking. I may skip that. Have not thought of painting yet, working on the plywood upper bulkheads I guess we can call them. Kind of wish I had left this is the box today! 😂🤣😂🤣

    I give up attempting to edit my almost incoherent description of planking…..

    Hull actually seems pretty good, unfortunately there is no reference drawing. I modified the “floor” by adding 1mm bass strips, give it some contrast.
  23. ajromano
    Got a bit lazy and just sloppy filled when I realized what a pain supplied planks did not bend worth a flip.
  24. ajromano
    Spray cans if you don’t want to gear up for airbrushing,

    My kind of silly!

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.
