    Glad to see there will be progress on the POB while we wait for this one to resume. Rigging eh? Sounds awesome.
  2. Sailor1234567890
    Can't wait to see the next instalment of this project.
  3. Sailor1234567890
    I still have a spare 1:96 Revell Cutty Sark for your future builds.
  4. Sailor1234567890
    You know the rules, no pics, it didn't happen.
  5. Sailor1234567890
    Speechless.
  6. Sailor1234567890
    Ed, how about you treat us to a nice overall shot of her? She's beautiful and I'd like to see her in her entirety. I'm sure others would as well. Keep at her, maybe a launch in late 2015 early 2016? Cheers, Daniel
  7. Sailor1234567890
    I don't know that she was launched with those numbers. 1869. My understanding is that the plimsol mark and the draught marks were not invented until the mid 1870s or so. If someone knows better please correct me but I doubt she was launched with draught marks. Are you building her as launched or later in her career?
  8. Sailor1234567890
    I know in Cutty Sark's building contract they talk of planing her hull smooth. Nothing about sanding or fairing as we would think of fairing a hull with torture boards etc today. A ship of the size we're talking about with small tool marks from a plane..... you'd never notice it I don't think. Your work here is incredible. I'm in awe.
  9. Sailor1234567890
    Incredible the work and patience that goes into these ships. Beautiful work.
  10. Sailor1234567890
    I think the Cutty Sark Museum sells them. I have a copy from there I think. (My brother got them for me). There are a few sheets. The Millar drawing of her is nicemand goes well with the Campbell plans.
  11. Sailor1234567890
    Looking good.
  12. Sailor1234567890
    Looking good. Keep at it. You must satiate the masses cravings here.
  13. Sailor1234567890
    Good progress. Fine detail work like that requires more patience than I can muster.
  14. Sailor1234567890
    Looking good Nenad.
  15. Sailor1234567890
    Longridge's book will be a huge help. Keep an eye though, he recorded the ship as she was in the early 20th century, not as she was built.
  16. Sailor1234567890
    Nenad, Could you post a pic of her majesty in all her glory so far?
  17. Sailor1234567890
    500 pics and you only saw fit to post 2? I think a thread for some of these pics is in order.
  18. Sailor1234567890
    How about a wide shot of her overall as she is now? She's looking good in this little bits of her we can see though. Kudos.
  19. Sailor1234567890
    Now that is a beautiful ship.
  20. Sailor1234567890
    Sweet. She looks great.
  21. Sailor1234567890
    Beautifully done.
  22. Sailor1234567890
    Hopefully it gets him into it like you want him to be.
  23. Sailor1234567890
    Looking good Nenad. Keep at her. She'll tell you what she needs.
  24. Sailor1234567890
    Looking forward to seeing this one as well. Great Republic still in the wings? I still have my old 1:96 CS on the mantle being dismantled. Ha!. Once I have her apart, I'll mail you the hull. Won't be much left of her though.
  25. Sailor1234567890
    Awesome work.

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.
