Caught up with your build Jan. Very nice work and that considering you seem to be wrestling with a difficult manufacturer and card. As you progressed with this build you did better at each step. The end result should be a nice model. Keep at it my friend. You and your family have a great 2019. Cheers,

Xmas? Xmas is coming? Man, how time flies, I better get going and prep. Well, actually I have been busy gathering recipes for our daughter's visit with us. She's a vegan and doesn't eat meat, perhaps only salmon. She wants bitterballen! So, I'll use mushrooms instead, like shiitaki. Modeling is on the back burner for now but the urge is growing though. Yup, I'm totally suppressed with the weather, we had some VERY cold nights and days - all the way down to 7C at night but it kinda warmed up during the day to 12C. I actually had to put a flannel shirt on with ling pants and socks and shoes 😉 Cheers,

Hey guys, I'm in as well - watching all you crazies making wonderful realistic ship models! I read through all the posts but stopped clicking likes so not to inundate your record files. It's always an enjoyment listening to all the fun banter going on with some good building practices to learn from. I hope to keep up. Cheers,

Really great looking riveting job Kees. That's one of the reasons I have tinnitus - driving and bucking too many rivets. Congrats with your new position, that's very rewording work. Cheers,

Nice work on the Connie Dave and I'll see you back here when you start working on her again. I'm only 84 so take your time to find finding your mojo again, send up a smoke signal. In the meantime I'll find your Jag build and keep you company. Cheers,

Hello Ed, Caught up after a few months and just want you to know that I thoroughly enjoy watching your build and learning on the way. I have been lurking since the start but refrain from making comments because I know zip about these ships. I just love to watch a jewel appear under your skillful hands. Cheers,

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.
