    Hello Bhupi, and a warm welcome to the forum from down in Sydney! John

    I believe the term 'Tall Ships' was thought up some years ago by the European sail training mob in a advertising campaign. John

    She looks a very nice yacht, David. Are you building her for display or as a RC model? John

    That's the attitude, Pete! The journey is often much more fun than arriving - and it keeps the old grey cells trudging around! John

    Very nicely conceived and constructed gallows, Gary. John

    Peter, keep at it, mate - all this experimenting and false starts can only lead to greater expertise and knowledge of sailmaking. John

    Very impressive, Kevin - beautiful work, as usual. I like the idea of the workshop Christmas tree! John

    There are dozens (maybe hundreds) of these available on eBay. All from China; all stupidly cheap. Probably pirated and undoubtedly of very poor quality. My advice would be to stay well away and spend your money on a kit from a reputable retailer. John

    Looking forward to it! John

    Stack of what, Denis? That funnel top looks first class, Kevin! John

    I agree - a great storey, Peter! John

    You're going to have to put some nice black grease on those parts to make it look 100% realistic, Danny! John
  21. Jim Lad
    Just catching up. She's certainly looking good! John
  22. Jim Lad
    Very professional (as always), Keith. John
  23. Jim Lad
    Looks just like a bought one, mate! John

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.
