    Are you aware that Syren is in the works for a full POF of the Speedweell in AYC? I saw it recently in a meeting it is quite large. I think near or at 3/8 scale.

      I knew that Joe. I think it may be a while before it becomes available and I need a project to keep me going. Speedwell looks attractive because 1/48 POB plans are available with the Antscherl/Herbert book. 

      You are very lucky to have meetings to attend especially when you can get to see works in progress such as Syren's POF Speedwell. I'm a bit on my own down here in Cornwall UK. But I value these exchanges and all the build logs the more for that.

      Thanks for your message Joe.

      Fred I do recall that Chuck Passaro of Syren ship models said that 1/4 scale was too small for him to produce such a model. I was surprised by that as he did not elaborate. It may have been related to laser machining. You may wish to contact David Anterschel. He is quite friendly and helpful. Hope I am not mixing the pot too much here..

      Indeed nice to connect with you. I will be following what ever your next project is.

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.
