    Hello Matt, and a warm welcome to MSW from 'Down Under'. John

    I agree with JacquesCousteau - very impressive! John

    Off topic, I know, but I couldn't help noticing that you said that you'd amke a 'dog's lunch' of it. Over here we use the expression 'dog's breakfast'. Is 'lunch' the common idiom in the U.S., or is that a local/family thing? John

    All up to your usual standard, Ilhan. John

    Hello Jez, and a warm welcome to the forum from 'Down Under'. My advice would be to start a build log for your QE2 - easy was to get comments and ask for help. John

    Just keeps looking better and better, Keith! John

    Definitely books on the bookshelf, Phil! 😉 A nice pile electrical equipment there. John

    Hello Gary, and a warm welcome to the forum from 'Down Under'. It's been said before, but remember that the only stupid question is the one you don't ask! John

    Eileen, Harold Underhill's plans, which are said to have been redrawn from the original yard plans, are available through various dealers online. Just google 'Herzogin Cecilie Plans'. Bear in mind that these plans show the ship 'as built'. There were major changes made during her long life. Our model shows her as she was on her last voyage in 1936. John

    Very sharp, Mark! John

    Roel, it's always the builder who sees the perceived errors in the model. She looks first class. By the way, you probably had right of way over the bridge! John

    Eric the famous author! Congratulations on the publication, mate. John
  20. Jim Lad
    Absolutely delightful, Keith! John

    Nice to see her continuing, Dave. John

    Looks like a lot of fun to build, Phil! John

    Do you mean from under the poop to the well deck? she certainly had those. 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.
