    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.

    Looking superb mate, so much fine datail really nice to watch. OC.
  12. Old Collingwood
    Thank you for explaining that - you are doing a really nice job and you research is really paying off. OC.
  13. Old Collingwood
    Very impressive work mate - its more like an actual ship build than a scale replica. OC.
  14. 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.
  15. Old Collingwood
    Have you tried - "I will cook every day till eternity" at the admiral? OC.
  16. Old Collingwood
    What supprises me is - so little depth in the water, only looks like about twenty feet or so, thats so little for so much weight, as a comparison HMS Hood was near 40 feet. OC.
  17. Old Collingwood
    Excellent work dave and what a great idea putting the covers for the oar cut outs ontop instead of having to cut them into the hull, I should have a thought of that when I built my Frigate. OC.
  18. Old Collingwood
    Superb chris - thank you for all you do. OC.
  19. Old Collingwood
    Super work - really really nice. OC.
  20. Old Collingwood
    Excellent work really really nice, you may also find this intersting - the news of Trafalgar and how it reached Britain. - https://twitter.com/LtLapenotiere OC.
  21. Old Collingwood
    I have been following the story of the news about Trafalgar being sent quickly to England, firstly in your build then by various horse and carriage to London - very very intersting to follow - https://twitter.com/LtLapenotiere OC.
  22. Old Collingwood
    Excellent work. OC.
  23. Old Collingwood
    Looking smart that paint finish is spot on. OC.
  24. Old Collingwood
    Now that takes it to the next level - adds an edge of realism about it - love it. OC.
  25. Old Collingwood
    There is still some amazing steam journeys and experience trips over here in the UK, I have been on a couple and they are great. 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.
