good morning everyone, eventually got a few outside shots, things are settling down having a new pup in the house, and a change of man cave, done lots on this build recently, and learning lots towards the next big ship build, around Easter time, Possibly the Trumpeter 1/200 HMS Nelson

Good afternoon every one more progress, but wish i had stuck to the correct order of the build, LOL- it's painfully show and doesn't show in the photos the hours of work done
-
good evening everyone it has taken a while to get used to having a nosher dog in the family, but we are now settling into a routine that is working for the three of us, done quite a lot of work on the Bismarck over the weekend - but getting bogged down with PE never got chance to get outside for photo' to windy - so again sorry for the quality
-
good morning everyone making progress with at least an hour daily on the build, PE is being fitted everywhere, Like all my builds, I should stick to page one of the instructions, and not move on until completed, as I am continually finding something is now in the way
-

Good evening Work on the Bissi has restarted but have moved out of my mancave for now into the conservatory- at least i am able to do some boat building, better than not being able to do anything, I apologise to anyone how does not have a proper workspace This is why I have to re-site for now - meet Dobbie (now 13 weeks old) Cocker spaniel, it is impossible to let him into the mancave, it was never designed around a hyper active pup, and it is all set up around the Victory in the rigging stage Did quite a lot on the main armament and PE work on all the ships boats, the longest part was working out where I have left off The hull needs the be touched up around the boot line,
-
Good evening everyone To cut a long story short, the Victory is on hold again, I have permission to bring plastic into the conservatory, so the Bismarck has come out of mothballing. basicly the victory is to big a to bring into the house and as I am into the rigging stage, i dont want the new puppy helping me,

Hi Augie the futtock shrouds don't seam to hang right, like they are out of scale, I am using the smaller dia thread as per the instructions for the shrouds but used the same scale as the mains for the ratlines, the thinner stuff made the problem worse

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.
