    Very nice Andy!! Frank

    Look'n really good Sjors......... You will be a master rigger for sure when she's finished..... She looks big enough to make the channel crossing, maybe you can use her next time you go visit Mobbsie Frank

    Nice real nice !! Mobbsie.......... it's amazing how fast you work and with such great craftsmanship, this is one fine looking build. Frank

    This build was awesome the first time around....... and it's still awesome!!!! Frank

    Oh, I didn't mean to neglect Popeye's talents in the least.... He has no competition either here or abroad..... He's the greatest and fastest multi builder ever!!...... I was comparing you to Mobbsie because both of you are doing just single builds. So you sir, are entitled to be state sides best and fastest in the single build category!!! Frank

    It'll be nice to see this one finished up, it's such a great looking ship and you're doing a real nice job on her....... I hear you on those dangling ropes, that's what I'm looking at too !! I forgot where half of them go Frank

    Nice job on the buoys Mike, they came out real nice, color looks spot on too!! Anchors are nice also! What's the size of the buoys you made??I have yet to make those, I have a problem with my left eye (AMD), so its been a little difficult trying to finish up the Supply, hopefully I can finish up soon Frank

    I made a bo-bo on my yards ....... looks like my fore and main mast upper yards are set in the wrong position after looking at yours. I really like the way yours are positioned, but I'm not going to change mine...... too many ropes tied off now to mess with. Another learning curve under my belt Frank

    Nice Augie!!....... like the pencil tool, I've seen it before on MM site, but wasn't too sure about it, seems you have put it to good use! Frank

    Hey Derek, are you going to have enough room up there where the Admiral told you to stick it?? Frank ( rigging is look'n good!! )
  16. riverboat

  17. riverboat
    Nice work on the boats Peter, those kits are real nice . Your build is looking great!! Frank
  18. riverboat
    Nice work Mobbsie, nice to see a real Aggie for a change
  19. riverboat
    Nice work on the rigging Popeye, It's hard sometimes trying to get the right tension on the lanyards, but you try to get them as best as you can, yours look good !! I don't think everything was so perfect on a real ship anyway. If you're pleased with the string you're using why don't you just stain it ? Frank
  20. riverboat
    Look'n real good Sjors, ......... now, which one is this?, it's getting hard to keep track!!
  21. riverboat
    I thought you just got back? ...... your rigging skills are excellent Andy ... Frank
  22. riverboat
    Nice Augie !! frank
  23. riverboat
    Adam, every little bit helps the ship come to life, Don't worry about huge progress jumps , I sometimes put one deadeye on and call it a day! ( Now that's real progress for me ) Your build is looking ship shape!! Frank
  24. riverboat
    Nice Ron , the yards and sails are looking real good !!! Frank
  25. riverboat
    Sorry Pawel, had you mistaken for someone else, but I'm sure your build will be an awesome too!! Frank

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.
