    Theory is where we understand everything and nothing works. Practice is where everything works but we don't know why. Here we succeed in both. Nothing works and no one knows why! 😋 Nick

    Hi Ekis Nice photos of the village you are using as an inspiration. Looking forward to seeing how they translate to your model... Nick

    Yep plasmo build this model with the carbon decals. Also an aftermarket chain with separate links! Easy when you are used to doing ratlines!😋😄 Looking forward to seeing how this one turns out. Nick

    Have to admit I'm not a big fan of yellow as a car colour but just this once I'll change my mind!😀 Very well done. Nick

    That is soooo cool! And also reminds me of the windmill in sleepy hollow! Lovely carpentry skills! Nick

    "but will make a decision soon. " Didn't take long then.😀. Looking forward to this one. Sticking with the yellow or going with a more traditional red? Or something completely different? Nick

    Still can't get over how good the headlights are. What's your secret to getting such a smooth finish. Don't worry it will be safe within MSW! 😁 Nick

    Hi Craig Fantastic work on the decals. One thing I have seen some people do is use a hair dryer for a few seconds to speed up the drying process between microsol (or equivalent) applications. There's a YouTube channel called scale modelling channel (mainly cars) that has quite a lot of good how to videos. Not saying you need it! ☺️. Just FYI... I'll stop rambling now... Nick

    Wow that is beyond words! Bravo. I would however like to claim 0.0001% of the plaudits as I did egg you on to stick to your plan!😋😉 Nick

    Thanks Mike! Appreciate the comment. Also reminds me I took a few pictures with my DSLR. This last one was an attempt at a diorama using a backdrop. Idea is ok in principle. Just need access to an A2 printer!🙂 Thanks for looking. Nick

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.
