    Dave, I wish I could apply a huge "like" to all of your inputs. This build log is great! Looking forward to more.

    Bob, That looks amazing. Having the longboat centered on the base would have created several problems further down the road when casing. This will look awesome once the longboat has a home!

    Maury, that looks so good. And yes, patience is needed too.

    Aydin, Did you look for Valejo paint 70.966? Which is supposed to be the turquoise color. Otherwise those seats looks so nice.

    Jaxboat, 40lb is equal to 2.86 stones. Good job. Now I need to the same..... lol And with the box containing the Victory I can do weight lifting!

    Chris, If Amati pondering of having a test built group, sign me up.

    Oh so that's what it's called, my Admiral calls it love-handles.

    Chris, that's beautiful work you have done to create HMS Victory. Any indication of the weight? Prince is looking great too.

    Julie, thank you for the explanation. Never seen it before but now makes sense.

    Julie, Even though the finishing planking is running "against" the water it looks amazing. Question: Why this running of planking?
  11. Nirvana
    Julie, kitchen is important for the happiness of the family. Maybe you can sneak in a minute or two with the Endeavor.

    Blown away! On the other hand it is a rather windy day day too.........

    Now, that makes the mill even more impressive!
  14. Nirvana
    Weflack, Are you creating this little mill from plans or is this just all from plans in your head? I am so impressed!

    Hi Sarah and welcome back along with your Longboat build. That frame support you added will keep the longboat strong while fairing the frames. It is well needed. I beveled the planks lengthwise for a tighter fit to avoid light coming through. I went along with Chuck's additional separate instruction using a hair-dryer or light heat-gun for bending and CA when it came to planking. Worked out really nice. However, your longboat is coming together very nicely and quick as well. We missed you at the annual PSSM BBQ in August. And that applies to you Harvey as well. ​

    Herr Pucko, I am very pleased that the instructions are in Swedish as well. ​ The detailing is amazing! Thank you for sharing.

    Aydin, That looks so amazing. Very nice job!

    Gråsäl (grey seal), I just found your restoration of Bluenose (jag såg din restauration av Bluenose) And as to me it seems to be an old AL version (för mig ser det ut som en gammal version of AL) However, the ship doesn't seem to be to damaged so it should be a fairly simply fix (däremot verkar det som att modellen är i ganska gott skick, så det borde inte vara så svårt att ordna henne) There are so many build logs of Bluenose, so you shouldn't have to many problems (Det finns så många olika byggnationer av Bluenose (både orginal och version II) så det borde inte vara några problem för dig. If you have any sort of question in with Bluenose, this is the site! (Om du skulle hava någon fråga beträffande Bluenose, så har du hittat rätt!) Good luck to you work - looking forward seeing more!

    Mr. Pucko, I hope you didn't choke on the chocolate drink when you realized it. I wonder if there is an error in the laser cutting?
  20. Nirvana
    Beautiful pictures, thank you for sharing. I miss visiting the area. It was easy when living in Europe, but now traveling from the West Coast of America there is so much more planning.
  21. Nirvana
    Bill, There are ship parts in the pictures. Guess you got caught by the "surprise" ​
  22. Nirvana
    Very nice! Looking forward to seeing what is next in the building line.
  23. Nirvana
    Adam, This looks both interesting and very good. Guess I will be one of the first to pull up a chair, to watch this build.
  24. Nirvana
    I am glad Luke didn't separate your hull. .. lol
  25. Nirvana
    Thank you Chuck, I appreciate your fast answer. I was suspected the 24 but wanted to be sure.

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.
