    Hello Yon

                    How are you. It’s a long time since I had seen you on MSW. I hope you are keeping well.  I myself have only just returned and restarted my HMS. Diana after a long period. My wife passed away 3 years ago and I more or less stopped my build, but I have been told by friends over and over again that I should restart my build,  as that is what she wanted me to do before she passed away. It would be nice if you just have a look around MSW now and then and add a few likes and comments. I miss the Victory build days, and it would be nice to see you back on your build and I could  pull up a chair to watch your progress. Come on blow the dust off it. You take care, best regards DAVID

    Hi David No, still here in the background. The pictures seem OK now. Having an extended break as I was suffering a great deal from CA allergy. I'm going to have another attempt soon with new facemask filters. All the best Yon

    The problem seems to be sorted - maybe it was because I hadn't logged on for so long. I have suspended my build for the time being as my allergy to CA has taken all the fun out of it (and was rather painful). I realise that the allergy won't go away but I fully intend to get back to it using a full facemask once I've plucked up the courage. Good luck to everyone with their builds. Best Yon

    Hi Lawrence Thanks for your comment ! After 2 years of building I am having a bit of a break. I did this before and found that when I get back to it I am much more enthusiastic. I was prompted after actually dreaming about rigging gun port lids ! I'll be back in the new year. In the meantime keep up the good work ! Cheers Yon

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.
