    Thanks Dave, I have a copy (paperback)m of the Sirius Past and Present, and a coffee table book of the First Fleet (the reenactment). Thanks for the feedback; I think only one of those would be useful then (if both are similar in content). I will. go with your advice re Alan Frost. I have a few books on the Investigator and Mather Flinders, as I have great interest in the early cartographers/explorers. The best of these I think is a large format hardcover written by Geoffry Ingleton. cheers Pat

    coming on really well Dave, that is some pretty neat planking for a first layer. Interesting reference material also; I may need to have a look at one or two of those also. Which would you recommend as the better (all round) of the two 'First Fleet' books? cheers Pat
  6. BANYAN
    That 'acorn' is probably a ring bolt for the chain stays; certainly that is what they are in the 'Victoria' - the davits look very, very similar. I have been trying to adapt some soft metal ones with no luck. Are these resin prints? cheers Pat
  7. BANYAN
    Those davits look great Jerry; nice work. cheers Pat
  8. BANYAN
    Wow Glen, another finely presented SIB. Great final photos BTW mate. Looking forward to your next build. cheers Pat
  9. BANYAN
    An interesting range of historical content there Richard, particular WRT your build. cheers Pat
  10. BANYAN
    Wow that is some production line you have going Richard. A very consistent and high quality output; those jigs certainly worked out. cheers Pat
  11. BANYAN
    Great to see the planking going on Dave, she will be afloat before you know it. Hopefully you may see some progress in my shipyard soon. cheers Pat
  12. BANYAN
    An interesting question Richard; I too would be interested in knowing. Perhaps a question to jewelry supplier? cheers Pat
  13. BANYAN
    Great progress Rob, she is coming along very nicely cheers Pat
  14. BANYAN
    The second one (rock) for me also Glen. You can always say the rock is from Japan Seriously, I think the rock is more in keeping with a nautical theme. cheers Pat
  15. BANYAN
    Wow Rob, you really motoring (or should I say rollicking) along. Looking great. cheers Pat
  16. BANYAN
    Sorry to hear of the kidney stones - been there and know how much they can knock you about. Nice progress on the model. Cheers Pat
  17. BANYAN
    Mate, you've done a great job with her completion, especially the rigging. cheers Pat
  18. BANYAN
    Great little model Keith, an excellent result for your efforts. cheers pat
  19. BANYAN
    Now that is one unusual and interesting display base Glen. Kudos mate, it looks great. I am sure those pesky penguins would also agree (that is if you have managed to keep them away from the Bundy supply ;)) cheers Pat
  20. BANYAN
    My, what a little beauty you have created Keith, looking great. cheers Pat
  21. BANYAN
    Looks great Rob! Some great collaboration on this build being seen here again. cheers Pat
  22. BANYAN
    Can't avoid life getting in the way Keith, hope the temporary 'gigs' have been acceptable? Looking forward to seeing you back at the bench soon. cheers Pat
  23. BANYAN
    Couldn't agree more than with Mark, she looks like a newly built model BUT retains all of her character. Nice work John. cheers Pat
  24. BANYAN
    Coming along very nicely Rob, that hull form is a thing of beauty. cheers Pat
  25. BANYAN
    That build looks great Glen and I am happy to hear Dimples approves (two horns up) - you may have to splash a little on her molasses block ). Seriously, some very nice detail in such a small model. 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.
