    Hi Visi First thank you so much I do like your input and comments. The rigging rope that I used was a dark fawn + the wax that I used, did not like the idea of white rigging rope . I put the kit's rope in the bin before I started. Visi just let me know OK. That is what this forum is about. Again thank you. Denis

    Hi Brian I will do the best I can. I don't think the admiral is looking forward to it though , will have to send her back to England for 6 years ha ha. Denis.

    Hi Max Re decks and planking. I think it looks OK as it is but if I had to do it all again I think I would prefer to plank it myself. Denis.

    Hi Frank Thank you so much for them words. Very pleased it is just about finished . The rigging and sails I think has taken about a year to do. The admiral said I have to re paint my office/hobby room before I start the "RW" :( . Denis.

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.
