    Finally back after the road trip to find the amazing progress you have achieved Greg; she is looking the 'ants pants' with some amazing detail at that scale. Back to the plates under the cable; i would be very surprised if she did not have any. These acted as 'scotchmans' to protect the wood deck, or even thin deck plating, from the chain as it bounced around while being worked. You would be amazed at the damage that can be done from that. cheers Pat

    Very nice Russ; love that sail -it gives the model a great sense of proportion. cheers Pat

    Very nice mini-tutorial on setting up and preparing the blanks for carving Gaetan; look forward to seeing the results of your Autumn carving efforts. cheers Pat

    I have been on the road for a few weeks with limited internet access; but what a great update to comer back to Glenn. She is looking great and that 'mica' sure sets the windows off. Love the detail for the bunks, furniture etc. cheers Pat

    Great work Alan; persistence is paying off and you are achieving some very nice joints. Gives me inspiration for my next build. cheers Pat

    Nice to see you back at the table Denis; very nice work! It can be a real problem finding time when there are sooooo many things to do cheers Pat

    Nice work Dave; she looks like she has just come out of the riggers hands cheers Pat

    Absolutely stunning - great work yet again Glenn. That 'white' sets her off beautifully and the amount of detail shown compared to what you are leaving off is spot on; really gives a good impression of her inner and outer workings. cheers Pat

    Great topic John, this will be a very handy primer. cheers Pat

    Nice work Sjors. Getting the detail of those ports right now will assist big-time down the trac. cheers Pat

    I've been on the road Piet so it is a belated congrats for a magnificent effort - that is a great diarama especially at that scale. Take a bow cheers Pat

    Hi Dave, sorry for the disappointing outcome mate as your display looked great. We have the same issues here at a major meet/expo but at last they warn us off and ask us to display as visiting modellers. cheers Pat

    Hi Greg, still on the road with little internet cover, but logged in today to fin all this great detail -you have been busy. Your efforts have been worth it, those bits and pieces, and especially the boat look great. cheers Pat

    Great work Mark, she is looking good. An interesting observation is that the bigger the pile in the scrapbox, usually the better the quality the build as this gem is showing. cheers Pat
  15. BANYAN
    Nice to see you have more time in the dockyard Russ; those dead eyes have come up very well. cheers Pat

    When Murphy is on holiday I find hat his mate "sod" takes over You have had your fair share of trials and tribulations on this one Greg, Hope you sacked that idiot Good work on the recovery (both) that will have required quite a bit of dexterity an patience to fix the crows nest. She is looking good mate! cheers Pat

    I had the pleasure to see this gem of a model and catch up with Danny recently. The photos do not do this model true justice; the workmanship and detail are superb. It was a great pleasure to meet Danny and put a face to the name; a true gentleman always willing to share his experience! cheers Pat

    Nice job on that netting Steve; looks good. cheers Pat
  19. BANYAN
    great expose thanks Gaeta; This is an item I need to procure and this will help cheers Pat
  20. BANYAN
    That is some very nice work Piet; some of us mere mortals couldn't achieve that at the normal working scales. cheers Pat
  21. BANYAN
    Very nice work Greg, you must have a good catalogue of suppliers Vs parts by now; you seem to be able to source everything you need? cheers Pat
  22. BANYAN
    Some very nice micro detail there Piet; glad to see the supervisor purring along cheers Pat
  23. BANYAN
    Still away for some time Greg, be a while before I am back at the slipway. Great catching up. cheers Pat
  24. BANYAN
    Great progress Mark, she is really taking some definition now. I like your mill set-up, you can keep some great control of the cuts/passes with that and the result is proof of the pudding. Wat cutters do you use (manufacturer); that ball cutter seems very effective. The cheap one I have just does not pass muster. cheers Pat

    Just one word comes to mind - BEAUTIFUL Great work Gaetan! cheers Pat

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.
