    Did the Mayflower carry guns on its trip to the new World? As far as I can remember, Mayflower was a merchant vessel. Yves

    Beautiful work. You met your goal, obviously. Yves

    I like that nice fig tree that is in the background. Do you get sweet fruits, Jack? Yves

    I would use existing Build Log as a guide. For instance: http://modelshipworld.com/index.php/topic/8865-muscongus-bay-lobster-smack-by-piet-midwest-products-co-inc-kit-length-15/?hl=%2Bmuscongus+%2Bbay Yves

    03 I'm sure you're probably wondering: which relationship has this message and related images with the Brick I'm building and that headlines this log? Does it have any relations to the Plating of the Hull? Yves

    Talk about a complete take over of Floyd's original blog..... Yves

    Beautiful boat. Exquisitely and discreetly weathered. A masterpiece if you ask me. You can be proud of yourself and you had a fantastic idea to picture it with the sea and waves in the background. Yves

    Jack, It is my pleasure and daily joy to follow your progress. I love your dedication to this hobby and all the beautiful ships you are building. Yves

    Congratulations on your progress on this lovely boat. I like the dark varnish on the boom, as it is very realistic of yachts of that era. Yves

    Beautiful planking Jack. It looks so smooth on the pictures.... Yves

    Lovely colors for the wood. Brilliant idea to stain it in red. Yves

    Great work. Now for the Port side.... I like that way of building a ship. Yves

    Gary, Beautiful ship that you built. You should be proud of yourself as it is a little marvel. I am looking forward to reading your next BLOG, especially if you build Emma C Berry that I started a while ago (not made much progress since then). Congratulations for a beautiful and completed model. Yves

    Thank you Brett. It all looks fantastic. Yves

    Brett, Obviously you went through Hell with that phase of the construction. Hey, that is the beauty of working with Kits, especially kits with plastic parts. I like how you solved the various problems and yes, going with a slow curing epoxy glue was the right thing to do. I wish you had shown the intricacy of the bulkheads before gluing them in the hull. Dorade will be a beautiful model and I enjoy tremendously reading your adventure with Amati (is it a Love-Hate relationship?) Yves

    Very interesting review. Please keep us updated of your progress. Yves
  23. yvesvidal
    I am sure it will Dave. Do not even worry about that. Yves
  24. yvesvidal
    Absolutely superb. And you are teaching Artesania Latina how to build their kits.... Fantastic model. Yves

    Dave, The difference of scale is readily apparent on the first picture: 1/60 versus 1/76. Very nice. Yves

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.
