I want to build at least one 1st rate ship before I die. Royal George would be one I would wait for. If Chris did produce the Royal George, I would abandon the dream to building the Victory. Chris's model designs and production techniques have spoiled me for quality, and I do not want to go to another manufacturer. regards Malcolm

What a fantastic build. That internal detail would benefit from some cabin lights. Lots of options these days with the LED's now available. But very early planning required. regards Malcolm

hi Richard Just discovered your impressive build and have read the lot. Fantastic skill and ability throughout the build. I left Wellington in 1967 but remember the Wahine tragedy well. Regards Malcolm

James Great start and thanks for the updates. Very impressive progress as I'm guessing after Chris sends you the 'kit' you work the build sequence out for yourself? Whatever the process it's a very effective and efficient collaboration. regards Malcolm

Very impressive. Looking forward to this build. Fantastic subject. I wonder how many hours James anticipates he'll need to complete this massive kit? regards Malcolm

Very interesting and informative update. Your Victory is looking fantastic. I like the simple yet effective way of sagging the jibboom horse. regards Malcolm

I agree. I struggled with non Chris Watton designed kits. Have now nearly finished 3 C W designed kits. And now I am very much enjoying the hobby, and I guess that's really what's its all about. I'm sure there is other excellent kit manufactures out there, I think Syren look magnificent, there rope and blocks sure are. I'm very pleased I persevered with the hobby. regards Malcolm

Fantastic, I guess the sky is the limit now you have nailed the 3d printer. I struggle to get my ink printer synced to my computer!! I'm not suggesting for a minute that you consider a Sovereign of the Seas type model, but would 3d printer technology make such an undertaking possible (or practical)? Looking forward to the release of the two new fishing boats. They both look particularly attractive. regards Malcolm

Mark Thanks for sharing your build. Plenty to learn here. Planking sure is a challenge and a bit of a struggle. I'm enjoying your build. regards Malcolm

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.
