    @ Augie, I shall make it clear for you. Original she's from Spain. Captured by the British and a little change on her name. From San Ildefonso to HMS Ildefonso. After that it's a he….so both ways @Andy, I shall tell Anja when she's got home from work that you called her peanut…... You really make friends this way I think that you forget that she's a moderator ,so more warning points…..

    Nice….. Looks like a swimming planck And isn't it always? When you are off duty you feel not happy and when you go to work you feel better…. It should be the other way around…..

    You can call Augie when he is done with the rigging, not sooner!

    Hi Jack, I still follow you in silence…. I go to my bookstore on Saturday to see if the gonna get it. I know they've got the Victory but maybe they can do something for me to get the 12 Apostles. She is just looking great!

    Morning Grant, Thanks, the Aggy is for next year……... When we go to Mobbsie or he is coming this way, I will order it. It's much cheaper to do it this way then to order it by myself. I don't have any shipping costs. Ferit, San Ildefonso is a Spanish ship only she is captured by the Brittish and renamed HMS Ildefonso. So I can go both ways….Spanish and Brittish

    I wish you a save drive and a lot of fun with your grandson Piet, Don't stay away to long and I expect a few pictures.

    Hi David, I have a secret for that and I don't tell you how I edit the pictures The foredeck….I just placed it and then start planking it. Then you can put the planks nicely against the bulwark and you don't see any gap. It's a little bit more work but then it looks great! Good luck with it.

    Morning Jim, What are you thinking? I started a new one and Sjors didn't found out???????? Wrong my friend! I have a moderator in the house before you forget it. I see that Mark provide one cup of popcorn…….that's not enough Mark ! And even you have no space, I'll put a small one in the corner. I see also that Anja has a couch where she sits alone. Let me see if I can found something else……. A little bit more space……. Back to the things of the day... Looks good with that solid hull. I will follow you of course again! When Anja takes a look at your stage coach , I'm watching over her shoulder. That also looks very nice!

  15. Sjors
    Sorry David……. You are right "snik" But now you know what kind od things you came up with. And of course…..you can ask me I think you are on the right track and it's gonna be a beauty when she is finished!

    Hi Ben, Thank you…. It's not a bad idea to go to the dark side. But the only thing is that Anja is still around . And she knows hiding places that i ever heart of it But It's not me who is talking about armouring….. Some guys are already fears for me and I don't know why. I'm just a friendly builder with good intentions Popeye, Rabbit ears??????? I know pinnocio with his long nose but ears???????? Please tell me!
  25. Sjors
    Augie, When I tell everything on forehand, I think David will change it before he get that problem…. It's good for his building skills when he found it out by himself But on the other hand….he can also read the log and find out

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.
