When I mention orphaned kits or projects, folks think they were free.we But no orphan is totally free from expense. Take the Jenny Lee, I just spent $76.00 just on the running hardware package, which is why I believe there are so many of the older Dumas, Billings kits floating around. Most of their newer kits have the hardware package included.

thanks guys, with my eye issues, it's taking me a bit longer to finish a project and I've had to turn down several orphan projects. But I'm still kicking it.

I usually like to do sail boats in full sail in all their glory, but with the cradle it sits in just didn't seem right to me.

I used some anchor material that I have for another project as a sail cover while it's in dry dock. There will also be minimal rigging.

I have the masts all set. I'm building it without sail as if it were in dry dock having repairs done to it.

1/200 Trumpeter IJN YAMATO - issued by MRC/Gallery Models
mtdoramike replied to yvesvidal's topic in REVIEWS: Model kits
That's a fact. You can run it in a lake or pond, but it better be quite calm and a good sized open space because it take a country mile to turn.- 98 replies

I finished building the Trumpeter 1/200 scale USS Missouri a few months ago. It turned out beautifully. I intend to donate it when I'm finished looking at it.- 98 replies

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.
