    Beautiful work Marsalv! Your work continues to inspire.
  2. scrubbyj427
    That looks really nice!
  3. scrubbyj427
    Just awesome work Siggi. What an inspiring build.

    Glenn your planking looks great! Very impressive work. I never thought I’d say it but I’m looking forward to my next model to up my planking game to your level.

    I’ll try the resin ones then, I’m just worried I won’t be able to match the finish of my other guns. But I’m also a long ways off from these little swivels.

    Wow! Just awesome work! Beautiful

    Those look great Chuck, but I’m assuming they won’t be available in turned brass?

    I think the head rails are going to be the icing on the cake at this point. Very excited to see this part develop.
  9. scrubbyj427
    Don’t worry Glenn... I’ll still probably be rigging guns by the time you get to this point.😁

    Wonderful work Chuck! This just looks awesome!

    Thanks Guys. So far I’m happy with the results. Once you get in a rhythm with them, they aren’t bad. The next time around I need to make 12 carriages and rig them all, so much larger task. I had made these carriages months ago.

    And finally 12! Easter brought the gift of time to rig guns! So now I will begin chapter 7 and then continue with the rest of the guns when I finish. Looking forward to getting some beams in place and completing my lantern project. JJ

    Looks like you could run both ways with it. But I agree with you, perhaps the modeler didn’t want to cut a nice run of moulding. And since it’s not actually functional I think aesthetics take priority. Also the molding and the steps seem to have similar profiles. I checked my drafts for Portland class and it shows the same thing.

    That looks really good, I think the dye is a much better way to go than black paint. I will definitely be using that next time.

    Those look really good. Often represented just as a slab of wood just glued on the side. I’m curious to see how the steps unfold.

    Excellent work Ben! Everything looks great!
  17. scrubbyj427
    Your figurehead looks excellent Marsalv! In your cnc did you have to carve one side at a time and flip the figure over each time or did the machine cut at all angles in one pass? JJ

    Granado Looks very good Tom, well done on splitting the hull.
  19. scrubbyj427
    Lookin good! Crew really bring it to life!
  20. scrubbyj427
    And then there was six of them.... 30 something more to go!! as soon as I get six completed on the port side I plan to take a gun break and start my long awaited chapter 7 and also pick up and finish my lighting project, now that I can hang the individual lanterns.
  21. scrubbyj427
    Hi Jack, any updates on Cumberland?
  22. scrubbyj427
    All three of them look good and I could go either way.
  23. scrubbyj427
    I sympathize Frank... between work and family my Winnie has been reduced to a glacial pace, you will probably catch up with me soon. JJ
  24. scrubbyj427
    Looking really good Frank! Excellent work.
  25. scrubbyj427
    Looks really good. You’re plank terminations at the bow and the stern look really good too. I struggled with the ends where they meet the counter, it’s definitely not easy.

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.
