I know you'll take good care of her, OC. But also take care of yourself. I think (can't remember) shingles is contageious or can be.

Welcome to MSW, Bob from the other end of the country. There are build logs here of that ship which should help you out. Also, do start a log to bring us up to date. The build log is a great way to meet other builders and also to get help.

Welcome to MSW, Simon. Feel free to start a build log when your ready. It's a great way to meet others and get help when needed.

Wonderful video, Greg. It downloaded this but not from the first posting. As for playback, Windows only does what OC says. In Windows I use the VLC player which can be downloaded.

Welcome to MSW, Mic.

Great work on the model, Greg. And sadly, the video won't play as "can't be found".

Interesting stuff there, Alan. More than a few archiologist types have always said that there's truth in those legends of old. The problem is finding them. So it's very possible that fabled city existed but trick to be to find out where. It's also possible (likely?) it's where it's described as, but buried deep in the sand.

Actually there's two types... active duty and those of us who served our time. So we're all Marines as your quote says but the active ones are Marines since they;re in uniform, the ones who are not active duty, are "former Marines". There's no such critter as an "ex-Marine". I tried the swear box, OC. Didn't work as ended up putting IOU's in it after a few days.

Been a bit frustrating day or so in the shipyard. I've been working on the rudder and got to the point of putting the Rudder Gudgeons on the rudder and fitting the rudder. Could not for the life of me figure out how to mount the gudgeons to the stern post. Then the penny dropped followed by much facepalming, banging of head on desk, and words used only by Marines and former Marines and not in mixed company. I rotated the hull and noted that I didn't finish painting the sternpost and found 5 small holes predrilled..... Doh!!!!!! The gudgeons fit in those holes!!! Anyway, where's where I am... drilling the holes in the stern post for fitting the gudgeons. Hope to have the rudder fitted by tomorrow. Need to stop beating myself up and carry on.

Looking very well done, B.E. I'm not sure the windows were really for looking out at the sea but more for light, Then again, maybe putting a stool on top the "bench" wasn't all that uncommon.

Welcome to MSW, Boydie. By all means, start a log of King George.

That's very true and great place to start. Each has some things that are unique to them.

Now that's being positive and thinking ahead. And admiral obviously believes in you on this.

There's a learning curve even to armor. Do not be ashamed nor afraid. The tank came out great.

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.
