    Hi Chris, yes I wanna do this and yes it is paler than the Swiss Pear, I love this one more and if you put a wood protection on it, it looks even better Look at this picture I put this on (I don´t know the English word for this)

    Good Morning Nils, I have attached the eyelets on my HMS Supply with superglue, it worked very well

    This barge was used also for expeditions Bill and the Name " Gros Ventre - Big Belly" is right because this ship could take very much charge. More than other ones and this is why they named her "Big Belly" Yes, it is a funny name........but whatever

    Yes Sir, take a chair but you have to wait until next weekend then comes popcorn and beer..........hopefully Today came to the pear-wood in different strengthen but not the plans I love this very warm wood and the beautiful wood grain

    Hello Nils, very nice progress but I think the eyelets slightly too large for this scale aren't they????

    Hello Dick, yes I want to try it, I mean "full framed" and it is absolutely great that so many guys have the plans and maybe you can help me with my experiment "scratch build" I'm still waiting on the plans, they are now one week on the way and France is a neighbor from Germany but it takes so much time until they are here. I know I'm impatient

    Hello to everyone.......! This is my main work - The Sovereign of the Seas from DeAgostini and if I wait for the next components (only once a months) I work on the "Le Gros Ventre" I started last year in august and so she looks today, if you want I can put more pictures from the beginning on. We are still not as far as in England, we are in the construction stage 36 from 135 and so I built the cannons and have them finished with gold leaf and so I'll refine all gold parts from the Sovereign and there are many of them here is the dinghy

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.
