It's hard for me to restart the build log of my Victory. So many discusstion and joy in the lost log which I can not find any more and only in my memory. I started my Victory at November, 2011. After waiting for a long time, I got the kit. But need two more weeks to receive the sketches which was missing by Jotika! How surprised when I receive the kit! ...... Where is the sketches?! Oh my God! During the time of waiting the sketches from Jotika, I just buit my 'workshop' -- it's the balcony of my room Keel laying at 8th Dec 2011.

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.
