    Good afternoon everyone, dreaded doing the fine painting, but it wasnt something i could put off any longer
  2. Kevin
    I have been trimming some of the secured lines, i think, but not yet checked that one wasnt quite as secured as i thought
  3. Kevin
    looking at the photos, i have a broken line allowing the foremast lower yard on the port side to be pulled aft

    Good evening everyone managed to get the foremast stuns in, they make quite a visual difference to the overall appearance of the build

  9. Kevin
    these are from the warhammer range, which i think work out at about 1/64 scale

    Thank you, the close up photos with flash highlight every blemish, which panics me quite a bit, so i see the pictures and rush down stairs to see if it is as bad as it appear, in most cases i cannot see anything

    Good evening everyone well i have ordered parts 2 and 5 of the set which have arrived, i also ordered 1.5mm plywwod sheets to replace the decks, 2mm thick balsa sheet for the 1st planking and lime strips for the 2nd planking all the main decks will be remade, the hull inside be reinforced to stop damage when drill portholes, and this build will have sails, some of the fittings will be scratched as they are very basic, my original build log was lost in the great crash, reinput and then i asked for that one to be deleted as this was going to landfill

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.
