    Patrick, sorry for the late response, just saw this. I’ll check and see if I still have the docs, I normally keep them but it’s been several years- will let you know. Don

    Just noticed that the link to Byrnes has been removed - perhaps it’s getting an update?
  25. Nunnehi (Don)
    Thanks, Bob!

    You’re most welcome, Patrick. If you want, I will send you the fuselage that I didn’t use, just send me a pm with your contact and I’ll get it on the way. It’s partially painted but can be cleaned up. Don

    Patrick, your planking looks great and I’m following your build with interest. One suggestion, I think that there was a passageway between the fore and aft main cabins that is closed if you follow the instructions, which is what I did. I think one of the other builds on here shows it opened up that may be more accurate. Don

    Patrick, Thanks for the kind words, it’s really appreciated! It’s a 1:48 OH13 Sioux made by Italeri and is available from Squadron models online, Squadron.com, and I’m sure other vendors. There are a couple of problems, it’s not historically accurate for the Calypso, and it’s slightly out of scale. I modified it to use the floats that came with the Billings kit. If you can live with the problems, it’s a nice addition. thanks again, Don
  29. Nunnehi (Don) started following USS Yorktown (CV-5) by patrickmil - Trumpeter - 1/200 - PLASTIC , HMS Victory by Yabuhebi (Chris) - Caldercraft - 1:72 , Calypso by mandolinut - Billing Boats - 1:45 and 7 others

    The Billing Calypso is a really fun build but is somewhat crude by today’s standards - lots of room scratch details. For reference, there are several completed builds on this site (use the search function at the top of the home page) and I look forward to watching your progress. Don
  31. Nunnehi (Don)
    Beautifully done, Ben, I’ve really enjoyed following your build! Don
  32. Nunnehi (Don)
    Nicely done! Have been looking at it for a while and may have to place an order. Don

    Glen, she’s so beautiful on so many levels, well done! Don
  34. Nunnehi (Don)
    Tim, Great news, I really look forward to a visit once you get her in place! Don
  35. Nunnehi (Don)
    Beautifully done!

    Beautiful, Glen, just beautiful!

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.
