    Ciao Daniel, Any progress on your spectacular model? I am looking forward to seeing more. Yves
  2. yvesvidal
    You are making good progress. Yves
  3. yvesvidal
    Thank you James. This is indeed a very nice vessel!! Yves
  4. yvesvidal
    Well, I will be following with interest, too. I wish James would have posted a picture of the finished model or some depiction of the vessel, in his introduction. Yves

    Excellent topic and great work on the PE and soldering. Count me in.... Yves

    The drivers are literally bathing in the fuel cells, on these cars.... frightening ! Yves
  7. yvesvidal
    Excellent choice. I just wished you had kept the scale of 1/32nd, so as to provide a clear comparison with the existing POF kit available from Model Shipways. I will be following, since I am building the POF sloop version. Yves

    That display of hulls is amazing. Are you selling them? Yves

    Superb model Kevin and so unusual in this beautiful blue. The sails are perfect and your lady did a fantastic job on these. Dorade remains in my future project.... I still have to purchase the kit. Yves

    Tom, you did a great job on that hull.. For a first attempt at planking, you pulled it out gloriously. I am looking forward to see more progress on that unusual but so pleasant vessel. Yves
  11. yvesvidal
    Well, let us be the judges ! I trust your skills and capabilities to turn that monster into a master piece. Yves

    Beautiful work on the engine bay. I would have added a couple of wires to the battery and a little bit of dust spraying around the engine, but since it is going to end up in pieces, no need to do anything. Yves
  13. yvesvidal
    Excellent choice Tim. I see that you have already done some spectacular work on the inside. Yves
  14. yvesvidal
    Very interesting kit. I will follow your Build Log with interest. Yves
  15. yvesvidal
    Yes, you need to rest your eyes and your hands....so, the 1/200 scale seems like a good candidate for your sanity 😁 To be honest, I cannot wait to see someone build the Titanic from Trumpeter....especially someone with your skills and attention to details. Yves
  16. yvesvidal
    Superb model. So realistic.... It takes me back to my childhood.... Yves
  17. yvesvidal
    It is just superb. I love your PE skills. Yves
  18. yvesvidal
    I am glad you tried the water in the pool. It makes for a big difference and an eye catcher. Yves
  19. yvesvidal
    Absolument superbe. Yves

    Thank you Tom. Yes, it does help and I still have to play with Future Floor. I have heard a lot of wonderful thing about it, but never gave it a try. I know that experts use it for gluing, and preparing the foundation coat for their decals, on plastic models. Yves
  22. yvesvidal
    I am amazed at how you put together these small PE parts. For me, it is a constant struggle. Would you care telling us what kind of tools and glue you are using for such a perfect result? Thanks Yves
  23. yvesvidal
    I like the small 1/700 scale model of the Rodney, next to the 1/200 scale. Quite a difference.... ! Yves
  24. yvesvidal
    Excellent choice on that newly released kit. And what a wonderful display of clean and fresh brass..... I feel like it is going to be a pity to paint all these beautiful parts. Your craftmanship is absolutely beautiful, clean and precise. Bravo!!! Yves
  25. yvesvidal
    What a great build. I love the Flower Corvettes and you are covering a very unique ship, with your build. So far, your progress are nothing less than outstanding. 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.
