    She’s coming along beautifully. It’s amazing you are able to create from scratch on a daily basis.

    Wow Congratulations on an awesome job and a beautiful ship. Any chance we could see you next to it for scale? It looks gigantic in the photos.

    What a great opportunity to bring a hobby that we all love, but most people know nothing about into the light.

    Truly Amazing.

    I just checked out the podcast and it looks like there’s a lot of good listening on there. Only problem is which one to listen to first.

    The Struggle for Sea Power A Naval History of the American Revolution. By Sam Willis Release Date: Feb 15, 2016 Publisher: HighBridge, a Division of Recorded Books This is great listen / read about the role that naval warfare played in the war for American Independence. It goes into depth about the benefits and shortcomings of sea power and how it affected the American, British, French, Spanish, Dutch and Russian Navies. The epilogue was just as interesting, covering the political fallout after the war and how this affected the counties involved. There is even a short mention of Pellew. I know I’m biased when it comes to anything about ships but I think anyone would find this book very entertaining. https://www.audible.com/pd/Struggle-for-Sea-Power-Audiobook/B01BKSTOPC?action_code=ASSGB149080119000H&share_location=pdp

    I’m continually in awe of your work. I didn’t realize this level of craftsmanship was even possible.

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.
