    I have finally decided how to set this build into a diorama setting, I need to have some idea by now so that I can plan the next couple of years, Hms Victory, with three cutters, I will have enough room for this Attached picture is the Constitution but gives an idea of what I would like to achieve

    Arthur, I had to look to see what that meant, hope to force the weathering onto the tiles before long, still far to bright, considering they were put on about 3 years ago

  5. Kevin
    lol all the battle damage will help towards the finished result, but she is just still manageable at presenrt

    good evening everyone, ratlines are taking me forever, but considering, when all the sails are in position very little will be seen, one or two will need to retied as they look a little sloppy, but with the diorama that i intend they will be full of little people

    hello to the Bounty team, lovely work, even with one of the two out of the loop for a while it is easy to see that progress that has been made, what is the next project?
  9. Kevin
    hope you are fully fit again now, maybe when you were last like it, it might have been the worry of buying a round, Im so impressed how you have so much going on, and make progress, where i have one build on the go, and dont seam to be going any where

    Hi Lawrence, been doing a lot of DIY the last couple of weekends, but hope to be in the mancave today and have a long (may bank holiday) next weekend, so hope to complete all the shrouds,

  19. Kevin
    the alister McGowan book is from £23 on Amazon in the UK (must be about (about $30 on conversion)
  20. Kevin
    Paul, lovely work, I am also using the Alan McGowan book and the Longbridge book, plus a couple of build logs on MSW, I have just moved my build back into the Mancave after a few months due to doggie training, also like you I tend to go backwards and forwards in the build process, which in the long term does not save any time, by the time you have worked out what has still to be done, hopefully will be back onto it this weekend after some DIY projects
  21. Kevin
    wow - that looks fantastic, well done
  22. Kevin
    lovely rework on the rudder, lol I would love to use all the bits from your scrap box, as everything would be better than what I produce
  23. Kevin
    good evening mobbsie, I am sure I can find that info out wrt total rigging distance lol you want it in meters or yards Intentions were to move her back into the mancave, as Dobbie is now eight months old, and has to understand that i have a life of my own as well, but first we wanted to adress a condensation problem with the freezer, and from there it all went wrong "what have you done today" thread will get a post soon As of tonight she is now back in the cave, buit still needs a few hours organisation before i can get a move on
  24. Kevin
    Lovely work, I am so looking forward to the day when I can start my own
  25. Kevin
    will not harm to make the preventers now and fit later, but yes the shrouds do get in the way when it comes to the lacing

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.
