    I like the slim lines of this vessel very much! Nice looking kit You are almost wonder if a kit doesn't get to easy with all the little helpful extra's like the precut rabbet etc. But I like the innovative way Chris Watton is designing his new kits.

    Nice job on the little "extra's" that you put in the build!

    The Pegasus is a step up indeed, but doable imo. With the excisting logs here on the forum it's okay I guess. Especially the build log of Blue Ensign is really great. I will also buy the 3D model that's now released...for some improvements on the kit perhaps. But Speedy is a very good choice! It look like a really fun build

    Thanks guys!

    Great job! I found it difficult to finish these little ships...without rushing to fast. Have you already decided if you are going for the Speedy?

    Thanks everybody for the great compliments! That's motivating for my next build

    The base plate that I used https://www.cornwallmodelboats.co.uk/acatalog/Occre-Model-Boat-Fittings-19102-Display-Stand-130x265mm-OC19102.html#SID=1691 And the colums are from Amati indeed https://www.cornwallmodelboats.co.uk/acatalog/5690-35-Turned-Brass-Column-35mm-A5690_35.html#SID=1579 I used two of the same dimensions, but filed one slot deeper so the ships keel lays in the correct angle. At first I thought it was a good idea to use 2 different dimensions, so one shorter colum...but that looked horrible haha, because the thickness is also reduced with the smaller height.

    Thanks a lot! And I will!

    Okay! So I finished the ship I didn't take pictures of the last stage. Was a bit busy and worked for very short bouts on the ship. The end was a bit difficult because I wanted to finish it, so there were sometimes moments that I rushed through the build. That needs some attention for the next time...that I take the time and patience to give everything the attention that is deserves, but that is just a part of the learning curve. I enjoyed this build a lot and learned a ton in the process. Offcourse skills wise with the wood etc, but even more mentally. For me it was difficult to actually finish something that takes this amount of time, so i'm very proud of that. And i'm very proud of the end result! I builded it right out of the box with almost no modifications. The most important thing for me was to actually finish it! And in the future there will be more modification/adventure

    As I see it...the laser engraved deck is a good template for planking the deck myself with prefered wood. But it's al just a matter of taste in my opinion.
  24. Ronald-V
    Great job on everything...i'm going a bit slow now...so you are almost as far as me
  25. Ronald-V
    Very nice result!

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.
