Wow, the paddle wheel looks great.   I imagined it was a bit larger until I saw the picture of your hand holding it.   That was quite a project on its own.

Thank you all for your comments, likes and wows. @gsdpic your right, every piece is another project in and of itself self. Now it’s back to the windows and doors on the Main Deck. Remember those?

 

Seems so long ago, but these models don’t finish themselves, do they?

That said, I am headed back over to The Red Jacket for a while. She is begging me to pull together those masts and spars.

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.
