    Great work and some very intersting research being learned - I too am very skeatchy when it comes to steam trains, the only thing I remember building with my farther was one of those large card ones - I lost interest and he finished it, had a couple of Hornby ones though as a kid. OC.

    Another couple of areas I see kit manufactures laking - correct scale beam so the canons have the corect room for movement between the bulwarks and gratings, and also corect scale stairs as so many of them if converted to real life would have sailors struggling to clear the frames when going up or down stairs. OC.
  21. Old Collingwood

  22. Old Collingwood
    Thank you for explaining that - you are doing a really nice job and you research is really paying off. OC.

    Very impressive work mate - its more like an actual ship build than a scale replica. OC.
  24. Old Collingwood
    Really impressive nice work, can I ask - are you going to flatten the wood work down so it has a mat finish? as I assume that how natural wood would have looked. OC.
  25. Old Collingwood
    Have you tried - "I will cook every day till eternity" at the admiral? 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.
