This is an amazing piece of art. I've been researching this ship for quite some time now, for a project I'm about to start. put many hours in and have collected a bunch of rare out of print books, diagrams, different version of model instructions. I came across a post you made, regarding rigging order, it looked to be the most definitive set of instructions I could find out there; it's a few years old now and most of the image links are gone. Is there a more up to date version anywhere? you talked about adding more details to it. (also if anyone is looking at doing this build, I have, The Anatomy of Nelson's Ships by C. Nepean Longridge, HMS Victory Classic Ships NO1 Noel C. L. Hackney, The Hundred Gunship Victory The Anatomy by John Mckay - happy to share images from them)

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.
