Hi Nils It looks like this is going to be another one of your amazing creations. Superbly crafted with precision, skill and talent. I look forward to following along. Cheers Patrick

Hi folks. I’ve been working on my latest mega yacht model named Inspiration over the past 14 months and is, as yet, still incomplete. As is customary for all my models, all of her decks are fully removable to reveal a fully detailed interior, from the engine room, right through to the top deck. I’ve still got quite a bit of work to go, but I hope you like her so far. Thanks Patrick

HI everyone I was just clearing out my cupboard and found that I have both volumes of the Naiad Frigate books in mint condition. I have never used them to build the model and as such, the pages and dust jackets are clean and in perfect condition. Both CDs and plans are intact and have never been used. Pls note that I am in Australia and the buyer will need to factor the shipping costs into the purchase price. Pls message me to discuss. Thanks Patrick

Hi folks! I hope you’re all well. Pls allow me to show you the latest update of my scratch-built miniature model, Splendid (1:500). During the past few weeks, I’ve spent more time building the individual cabin walls and bulkheads for the internal accommodation across Splendid’s five decks as well as more preliminary work on her two decked engine room. More work’s still required, of course, but…she’s getting there, folks; she’s getting there…! Have a great week. Cheers Patrick

Hi folks! I haven’t been able to do much on Splendid lately as I’ve had some ruddy kidney stones removed. All good now, so far (fingers crossed). Anyhow, here’s the latest. I’ve cut out all of Splendid’s five decks and started to add the cabin walls, etc. There’s still a long way to go, but some progress is better than no progress at all, I guess. Cheers Patrick

Another ship in a bottle

Nice job, Bill! I always have an extra dose of respect for SIB builders. The magic just never seems to wear off. well done. Cheers Patrick -
Hi Josh Well done and I’m glad that your MIL liked it! I too, was getting a bit anxious after reading your post relating to the disaster, but, as is always the case, Murphy’s Law is always just around the corner. I’m glad that you got the problems solved. I also liked the fact that you positioned the boat towards one end of the bottle, as opposed to the centre of the bottle. It makes the viewer think that it’s got a long journey under sail ahead of it. Nice job all around. Cheers Patrick

Hi Keith Just catching up at long last. Oh..My..Gawd!!!! No words, Keith. Simply no words can sufficiently describe your work. It’s THAT good. Cheers Patrick

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.
