    Hiya mate, there has been a bit of interest on here, its home so to speak is on twitter where I am trying to approach as many people as possible, who may be interested or relavent to the films creation, the script is currently being looked over by a well known film producer, and we are awaiting his feedback and direction with the film. Its a facinating journey to be on I have been invited to be an extra on the film. OC.

    I managed a bit of progress today folks, I decided to widen the black band upwards from the wale, also I adjusted the stand so the hull sits more firmly on it. OC.

    Good evening folks, I have decided my next move with my build will be to increase the width of the black band that was just covering the wale, I will measure an equal gap from the top feature edging downwards to above the top of the wale and mark a line, I will then mask this and fill in with the same black as the wale. Here is a picture of similar frigate to show how I want to extend the black band. OC.

    I had to do a similar thing with my stick down wood sheet deck on my Warspite as it was slightly too short compared to the hull, I made my join/gap in the center between superstrucer blocks. OC.
  17. Old Collingwood
    Looking very precise. OC.
  18. Old Collingwood
    Wow! that hull looks real nice so smooth she is coming along so well. OC.

    I've asked him to join up on here and have a look at a few of the Vic builds and also to have a look at my build, I was wondering if the mods would let me pt something up about the film. OC.
  22. Old Collingwood
    Thank you so much Kevin, its just an annoying condition that causes my hand to lock up with a couple of frozen fingers. I have been keeping myself busy with helping to promote a friend with his new film script for a fab new film about Nelson and Trafalger, its going to be bigger than Master and Commander - A deffinate must see film when its made. OC.
  23. Old Collingwood
    Thank you kindly, I just dont want to spoil what I am doing so I need to wait a bit. OC.
  24. Old Collingwood
    Hello everyone, I am sorry for the lack of movement with my build, that stupid hand condition is playing me up again, and it kind of throws me of course affecting my mojo, I am still here as I love replying to all my friends and following what everyone is doing. Keep up your great work folks I will get on with my build shortly. 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.
