Nils thank you very much for your kind words, thats nice of you. You also commented in my post in the Gallery and I thank you also for that. Am already making a short log video of Hermione and as next I already have a kit bought from Japan, Sir Wiston Churchill from Woody Joe, which I plan/would like to build according to the experience gained this past few years building ship models. It has to become my best build -I hope and wish-, although my great love -I think- will always be L'Hermione!

This is the end! L'Hermione is completed! Started in March 17, it took 18 months. I believe, or I calculated roughly about 800-900 working hours. Its been a great pleasure and fan. The thing is: never stop working even a few hours a week. Here are the finished pictures

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.
