    Hello Carlos, Congratulions to your model. I especially like the combination of the POB construction and your phantastic timber work on the surface of the model, much like in full scale ship building. Greetings Rudolf

    Hi Ed, as you suggested I printed the patterns aout in original size on A4 paper, it worked well, there was no distortion. A few years ago I tried to plank a model of Red Jacket scatch build to Mr Crothers´ plans. I juts could not plant the round counter properly altough I tried spilling. Will try your method if find the time for modelling again. Your planking job is exceptional, but once paited will it be visible at all? The book is a joy to read and a motivation to start buildng again as soon as possible. Greetings, Rudolf

    Hi Ed, Since last week i am a proud owner of your book. Outstanding, I must say. one question though: i have no American legal or letter sized paper, can the bulkhead patterns for the 1/96 version be printed on A4 paper too, and if so what must I change in the setting on the pdfs? Thanks again for your fabulous work on clipper ship model building. Greetings, Rudolf

    Hello Klaus, Beautiful build, congratulations! I assume the cabin door opens to the inside, as otherwise it would interfere with the steering stick? Greetings, Rudolf

    Hi Grant, Congratulations, she looks beautiful. I think you did very well with shaping the bulwark stanchions like this, they do not appear oversized. Some questions: Mc Gregor does not give a layout for the stanchions on his plans, is your layout just an educated guess or have got any information on these items of the ship. And will you include a topgallant rail? Where will you put the pinrails? Cheers, Rudolf

    Hello EdT, I think the round stern of a clipper is a highlight in shipbuilding, both in elegance and difficulty. I have tried (in vane) to get this right in a solid hull, your construction looks so easy in its perfection, marveous! Rudolf

    Hi everyone, I can only support Christians view: this is really a wonderful book and well worth its price, but please avoid the german edition-the tranlated text is just an annoyance. Greetings, Rudolf

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.
