    hello Yorick, and a warm welcome to the forum from not so tiny Australia. John

    Great to hear from you, Richard! John

    Another update at last. After being away for a couple of weeks and a couple of extremely busy visitor days at the museum, I've finally been able to get a little ore done. Now we have five yards crossed on the foremast - one more to go once I rig the upper topgallant. I've included an image looking along the well deck which shows a little of the scramble of unsecured rigging at this stage. John

    Ah, good! The wood chips are flying! John

    Thanks for those quotes. Mark. Traditionally, of course, the light boxes were painted red and green, and now they are usually painted black. John

    She looks terrific, Mark. Well done! John

    Looking good, Keith. Are you going to leave those sidelight boxes white? John
  8. Jim Lad
    That's starting to look Quite complex, mate. John

    Yes, Keith. I was back at the museum on Monday, but I got hardly any work done. Too many visitors wanted to talk about the 'Duchess' and model making in general! 🙂 John PS: That's not a complaint. The whole point of working on the model in the museum gallery is so that people can talk to me about it.

    Don't quite know how I've missed your log for so long. That's a very nice model you're building! John

    Good grief! Even the catwalks are complicated on that ship. 😀 John

    She's been coming along very nicely while I've been away, Paul. John

    Thank you one and all for your very kind comments. In spite of directors very obviously trumping curators, I think I want to get her finish as soon as I reasonably can, as I'm anxious to get back to my 'Meteor' model. 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.
