    Crikey! She's really coming along quickly, Pete. John
  2. Jim Lad
    Oh, yes! That really looks the goods, Michael! John
  3. Jim Lad
    The obvious thing - spray some of each colour onto a board and see which one gabs you! John
  4. Jim Lad
    Can't wait, Michael! John
  5. Jim Lad
    Now that's looking very nice, Mark! John

    I've said it before, Toni. It's not so much how you work, as how you recover from the inevitable disasters that counts in the end. John
  7. Jim Lad
    Thanks, mate! John
  8. Jim Lad
    She's really coming along nicely, Danny. John

    Michael, If you're having trouble thinking of where to store your lady when she's finished, you could always ship her out to Sydney! I'll give you the shipping address if you like. John

    Looking first class, mate! John

    Michael, Firstly, for heaven's sake put those containers of parts away in a cupboard somewhere before you bump them and knock them off the bench! Go for the dark hull if you want a traditional look and white if you want a yacht. Many traditional working craft in the U.K. had their hulls painted with tar as it was both cheap and a good preservative. John

    Looking good, Danny! John
  13. Jim Lad
    Man, that looks really nice, Tim! John
  14. Jim Lad
    Now she really looks the part! John
  15. Jim Lad
    She's really coming along well, Pete! John
  16. Jim Lad
    Aha! John
  17. Jim Lad
    Nice to see that you're still at it, Tim! John
  18. Jim Lad
    I don't think the extra angle on those forward stanchions will be really noticeable, Danny (unless the ones on the other side have significantly less). John
  19. Jim Lad
    Sounds like you had a really great day with the kids, Michael - good on you. Love the picture of your cutter on the beach - just waiting for the tide. John
  20. Jim Lad
    It was your birthday? Well, many happy returns, Mark! John
  21. Jim Lad
    Thanks Robert! Not skill so much a dogged determination (or is that pig headed stubbornness?) John
  22. Jim Lad
    Why red under the grey, Andy? (I'm not a great paint person). John
  23. Jim Lad
    A great yacht to build! The original is now housed in the Fremantle Maritime Museum in Western Australia. John
  24. Jim Lad
    Thanks, Mark! John
  25. Jim Lad
    Great to see that she's moving ahead again, Andy! 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.
