    Excellent work! And a beautiful looking ship. I've heard mixed reviews of this kit, though I plan on jumping in after my current build - any problems I should look out for when diving in? I'll be following your log with great interest! hamilton

    Glad you're reposting this!! I built this kit last year and your log was a great help - I'm only sorry I never said anything about it before - but thank you!! A beautiful build looking good atop the fish tank if I remember correctly! hamilton

    Looks great so far. I built the older version of this same kit last year - a lot of fun but found the laser-cut parts a little off in some significant places - the bulwarks in particular, though also the decks (less so) - how have you found the quality of this kit? Also - I saw other build logs of the SF II with a single layer of mahogany planking...but it seems that this one is double-planked...do you know if they revised the kit? Keep up the good work hamilton

    Your Syren looks amazing! I just got this kit, though won't be starting it for a while. Reading the practicum I often read the words "paint to look like wood" in reference to the Brittania parts. Can I ask what paint you used on the quarterbadges and stern decorations? I'm not exactly sure what finish might look most like wood....and your work on these parts looks great. Thanks for posting! hamilton

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.
