    Good evening everyone 1st and 2nd planking completed at the stern, and 90% forard i want to get the cabins in first before the front bit is completed the stern now works for me in the respect that the balcony fits and although a lots of sanding/filler in places, i am happy with it at present i am recovering the templates that make up the cabins, in a worst case scenario, i will remake them all still a lot of work required on the bow using the recovered templates where possible

    Can i add something into the conversation please the link below takes you to the topic A Snapshot of MSW Members' Current Projects, one of the reason i created it was for this very reason.but sadly it has never really taken off, perhaps now is the time to get more members involved, one photo, a link to the build it is referring to and delete and previous posts of the same build

    Good morning everyone 1st planking continues, but as i correct things, i keep removing more of the original build, so i might have a few issues getting the new to match whats left when the 2nd planking is complete, yes it would have been easier to strip it all back but hopefully i can rescue all this and get her back to pre-strip down the bow is much better than before and the stern, is now the troublesome area but the shape is right this is the most fun i have had since the last time i had fun, if how ever it does not look right, i will send her to to big model ship scrapyard in the sky, the frame will not take this much treatment again the map pins are keeping the vertical planks in place,

    Good evening everyone well the main decking is done, and had one coat of diluted water based varnish, and is actually better than i thought and 1000% better than that previous effort i did. Next will be to work on the cabins under the decks, to allow the two upper false decks to be fitted/planked, then i can complete 2nd planking 12 years ago prior to sanding port side with supervisor checking on progress

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.
