    Hello Vladimir My name is Willi and I'm new here at MSW and this is actually my first post here. One of the reasons I signed up is your report on the construction of l'Amarante. I'm currently building l'Anémone using the same plans, but only in 1:48 scale and not in the outstanding quality you've shown here. It's a constant inspiration for my own build. It's precisely this quality that makes it almost seems like a sacrileg for me to point out a possible construction flaw. In #112, you show a superbly constructed door with very fine hinges. However, this door can't be opened in this form because its lower part blocks it against the side walls. The lower part would have to be a threshold and thus part of the bulkhead. The door itself only begins where yours reaches its greatest width when viewed from below. I'll try to post a few pictures that hopefully clarify what I mean. I hope you don't mind my objection, but I didn't want to keep my opinion to myself, because I believe that the perfection you demonstrate is based on the desire to build the model as beautifully and as flawlessly as possible. Herzliche Grüße Willi

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.
