This is Truly excellent work with the stairs, in most cases with ship builds - not enouth scale space is given for the stairs vs the frame, meaning in real life sailors would be banging thier heads against the deck framework, similar I have seen with scale distance for the deck widths - there should be twice plus a third the length of a gun from the bulwark to the frame of the gratings.

I asked about Cresswell as I used to work for them as the assembler/engineer putting our range of recumbents-folders and hook on carriers together and testing new products, we were a small company with a very small workforce - great times while I was there. OC.

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.
