    You're really making a very nice job of what started out as a very simple kit, mate! John

    The further this build goes, the more I wonder whether it should be on MSW or Model Engineers - absolutely stunning boat building and engineering! John

    Now if you lived over here in sunny Oz instead of up in the arctic, you wouldn't have those problems with paints due to the cold! John

    Good on you, Grandpa! Will the completed model go home with the kids or stay at your place for them to admire when they come over? John
  21. Jim Lad
    Well done on completion of a fine model, Dan - she's a real credit to you. John
  22. Jim Lad
    Nice work on the parrels, Pat. But what a wimp - you should have used Ironbark instead of Red Gum! John
  23. Jim Lad
    Slow, but sure, Mark. She's looking first class. John PS. Happy birthday, Bill!

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.
