    Hi Josh Well done and I’m glad that your MIL liked it! I too, was getting a bit anxious after reading your post relating to the disaster, but, as is always the case, Murphy’s Law is always just around the corner. I’m glad that you got the problems solved. I also liked the fact that you positioned the boat towards one end of the bottle, as opposed to the centre of the bottle. It makes the viewer think that it’s got a long journey under sail ahead of it. Nice job all around. Cheers Patrick

    Hi Keith Just catching up at long last. Oh..My..Gawd!!!! No words, Keith. Simply no words can sufficiently describe your work. It’s THAT good. Cheers Patrick

    Hey Vaddoc Re: Your last paragraph about the painting of your beautifully planked hull. Well...our Australian Prime Minister, Scott Morrison has been alerted and he has scheduled an urgent meeting with your PM to discuss the issue. At this stage, it is hoped that diplomatic action will be enough to avert the heinous action that you intend committing. Should you still continue to pursue the painting of such a beautifully planked hull, I understand that economic sanctions may be invoked as the ‘last resort option’. Oh...who am I kidding, if that’s your wife’s desire, t

    HI folks Allow me to introduce you to my latest miniature mega-yacht model, “Splendid” (1:500). Splendid is based upon an actual mega-yacht named Nirvana https://www.yachtcharterfleet.com/luxury-charter-yacht-25086/nirvana-layout.htm and as is customary with all of my models, I will attempt to include as much internal detail as I can; with all of the decks made removable in order to view the interior. The following photos show that the general layout of the superstructure has been mocked up in order to give me an idea of how everything will fit together. It’s all stil

    Hi Vaddoc Just catching up. Geez...for crying out loud!!! How the hell you’re able to build these technically accurate, beautifully constructed models woven together with a touch of magic and oodles of skill, is nothing short of amazing. And...this model is no exception, as witnessed by the perfect planking and framing. Nice job! Cheers Patrick

    Hi Gary How are you? Thanks for your comments. It’s great to be back. I haven’t really worked out the scale, but I would think something like 1:350’ish, or something along those lines, I would hope. Thanks again!! Cheers Patrick.

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.
