I fully agree to Ronald's post. The pictures of the individual design phases -particularly the assembly of the bulkheads, beams and stern supports etc.- are unique and whet one's appetite to see more and finally buy the kit. It is a pity that a single post in the forum might have influence on the presentation of the construction progress. 😒 Uwe

Hmh, photos of my completed Speedy...🫢 She can definitely not compete with your work of art. I will thoroughly examine if I can find parts of the model which I might dare showing...🤔 Uwe

Great model and beautiful work! I am also currently building Speedy (V.1) and I know how much work went into the sometimes challenging rigging. When I get to the bowlines in a week or two I will definitely study your description and the pictures. I envy your skills, particularly those additional details you put on the model. Uwe

Hi Nils, Glad to see you "on deck" again! I hope your wife has recovered satisfactorily after these months. Your Elbe 1 is coming along nicely and looks really good! All the best Uwe

A very beautiful and detailed build! Looking at your Speedy I can hardly imagine I would ever post pictures of my version here... 🤔 Uwe

After having enjoyed your detailed Trial build log it is a must to follow on your Sparkler's! I like the idea to build the brig hove-to, particularly considering your sail making skills. Have fun with the new project! Uwe

Dan, This is a really beautiful model! Very well done in all aspects! I would also like to buy this kit but I still have Speedy on the work bench and Trial and Nisha on the shelf. To squeeze in Adder would mean some serious negotiations with the admiral (the superintendent as we would say in the merchant navy...). Uwe

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.
