    That looks like a cool little model (I can hear Gordon Lightfoot in the background). I can't wait to see how this turns out.
  23. wemattson
    This is a great kit that builds up to a nice model. I built one when they first came out a few years ago. I can't wait to see what you do with yours.
  24. wemattson
    I'm looking forward to following along on this build. Also, I like the pinewood derby aircraft carrier on your workbench.
  25. wemattson
    Bummer, this build has been fun to follow. Looking forward to your return. Good luck with your projects.
  26. wemattson
    Shipman, Cool article, thanks for sharing.
  27. wemattson
    I think it is so cool that there are three wonderful Revell Cutty Sark builds going on simultaneously with a lot of constructive advice being shared by and amongst the builders. All three are very inspirational and have me very excited to get started on mine once I clear the decks of some of my other projects.
  28. wemattson
    Beautiful workmanship and well worth the wait!
  29. wemattson
    Any updates on this incredible build that you can share? The anticipation is killing me.

    Veszett, Yes, I will be doing a build log for the Passat. I'm in the process of finishing up Revell's Colombia Express, and Academy's USS Reuben James first. I wish I had done a build log of those two because I feel that a build log helps keep the building process moving forward. Cheers, Wayne

    Your modifications to the catwalk support posts is very well done. The Passat should be getting started in February.
  32. wemattson
    Chris, your PE work is very clean and precise. I’m really enjoying watching this one come together.
  33. wemattson
    There is some really cool things happening on this model. I’m glad to see this up and running again.
  34. wemattson
    Wow! Your ship display looks great, especially with the display cases and lighting.
  35. wemattson
    Chris, Really good to see you back at it. Nice job as usual. I have a couple of questions: 1. Are you building a "maritime museum" somewhere in your home? If so, please share some pics, I'd love to see how you're displaying these beauties. 2. I've always had a love for ocean liners but have had a hard sourcing these kits. Other than Ebay, there doesn't seem to be any retailers. What's your source? Looking forward to more installments of this build. Thanks, Wayne

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.
