	Welcome to MSW! Great first model!

	Welcome to MSW!

	An update! A bit overdue, but progress is slowly being made, I just needed some time to update my log instead of looking at everyone else's on MSW! 😁 The main mast has also now largely been constructed, using the same techniques as the others with various card and styrene rod embellishments for the mast hoops and reinforcements. I also used wire for the stanchions of the fighting tops rear handrail; I didn't fancy the chances of delicate wood stanchions surviving my rigging efforts later, or the chances of me adding the handrail once the rigging is on. Also been tying blocks to the masts as I have been going along, so as not to leave all that to do in one hit. Hopefully the next update (not as long a time gap as this one! 🤞) will be the masts completed. Then on to adding blocks to the yards, before the dreaded "R" word we don't mention.... Thanks for looking in. 👋

	Welcome to MSW Willi. outstanding models!

	Your skills are amazing Mike! I also love the subject matters you choose, not the usual Yamato, or the other popular subjects, but the unsung or even “quirky” vessels. I have been inspired and pulled the trigger on a 1:700 AJM kit of HMS Vindictive, that was going for a very good price on Ebay.

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.
