Peter, Went back and stared in wonder at all the incredibly well done image details. Close-ups occasionally enhance mistakes (well in my case 🤔) - In your build they absolutely capture the obsessive (a Huge compliment) attention to scaling absolutely every bit of this projects to perfection - Big Cheers, And as Julian just posted - yes museum quality - possibly beyond actually...... Regards,

Hi Robert, I have been following your log since the first frame. Brilliant outcome on arguably the most difficult kit to get PERFECT (the ship is so complicated). You also added so many extra details --- 🏆 🏆 Regards,

OC. thanks as always - happy that you dropped by as well. -- Been much away from the shipyard as well as from home base for a while; I did finally, however, finish stropping the many lines for the gun carriages. My recent focus was for the ten main deck larger carriages. Here are a few images - Next up is securely positioning the carriages then attaching all lines. Then onto the hull gun doors - I think?? Again thanks for your visit - this log is a real slow one indeed. Cheers,

Evan, By coincidence I found your log. Clicked and read your opening intro to this build. hahaha - So you are not a "fan" of this ship. I then went through your superbly explained and photographed log. Well - you have indeed become a Titanic fanatic (huge compliment) making sure that your example could arguably become the best possible example of this Trumpeter kit given your scratch work (love the rudder BTW) and then you removed incorrect kit castings fixing those with your custom work. Great work!!!. Will also follow with much interest. PS: I did see the movie until the end haha. Cheers,

Siggi, I have been followed this amazing log since its first timber was cut - that said, many “likes” but few comments. Your work and this ship are so beyond my skill set - BUT I have so enjoyed following 👍👍 and I have learned so much as well. Regards,
-
Marc, As always such a pleasure dropping by --- PS: Yes, that Modelships.de site has amazing models - I've known about it and spent lots of time looking through some of those builds for several years now. AND the double click closeup images are so helpful for learning about how to add details to a build. Cheers,

Hi all, Patrick – yes, the magnetic panels - seemed to be the best idea given that I much later in this build decided to add lights. Peter – as always thanks Mark - thanks as well - your work is so excellent happy that you like how this bit of the build is looking Richard – so glad that you dropped by and are again working with your awesome Bluenose - thanks for the kind words. -------------------------------------- It’s been quite a while since I’ve posted an update. Started work detailing the carriages. Short text - images have some notations. Thanks so much for your still continued interest in this very “slow boat to China” build log. Enjoy your year-end holidays…. Cheers,

Frank, YES indeed beautiful model - congrats. I also think a combination of steam and and sails would be a great next idea. Nice to visit 1600s, almost the 1700s - creative thinking to move into the late 1700s and into the 1800s - again big congrats!!! Cheers my friend

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.
