HI Kevin Really, really, really impressive! I can see that your four legged friend agrees, as well. Cheers Patrick

Hi George. Many thanks and yep, you're right - in retrospect, maybe I should've named her Challenger instead of Majellan! HI Pete - thanks - you're sure right about the Cabin...I'm still trying to figure out how to make the individual decks within the superstructure itself lift off so that you can view the detail inside. Mmmm, should be fun... Hey Bob! Many thanks - she's shaping up to be a lot of fun, that's for sure. Thanks David - Yep, I'll use styrene for the majority of the superstructure, as it seems to be the most suitable material that I can think of. Thanks Nils - Come to think of it, Magellan's hull is probably just big enough to fit on your KMDG as a lifeboat! Thanks Greg - Greatly appreciated. I haven't seen the MKR promos yet, but I'm sure the DUSNUS will make sense once I see it! Thanks John! I'm glad that you're enjoying my log as well as those of my other ships. Greatly appreciated. Thanks BDGiantman. The 3D photos were a bit of fun, but also a means to get me to focus on the final product, i.e. what Magellan can look like with the superstructure added.

Hi everyone Thanks for all of your comments and likes! Greatly appreciated. A very quick update. I've been spending some time doing lots of work to get the internal layout correctly laid out. Tedious work and, not much to show for it. Nonetheless, I thought I'd loosely attach the lines drawing of the superstructure against the hull as a means of keeping me motivated. Anyhow, here are the photos. Cheers Patrick

Hi Mehmet Masterful weathering! It's as if the boat's been exposed to the sun-bleached elements for decades. Really, really, convincing work. Well done Cheers Patrick

Hi Augustus Nice work! I have to admit that I didn't realise how big the hull was until I saw your You Tube video: She's going to be a beauty once finished. Cheers Patrick -

Hi Jeff It's certainly great to see you back posting again. I had wondered where you've been, but, of course life always get in the way. Your ship's looking really good and you're certainly off and running now. I look forward to seeing what you're able to get done over the Christmas break. All the best Patrick

Hi Willie I love the fine detail work you're doing such as the chair, hatch handles, ram, etc. She's certainly looking very nice! Cheers Patrick

Hi Nils Now, that's a masterpiece! I can't wait until you're able to get back to working on her, but I understand that you need to complete your Pegasus first. All the best! Cheers Patrick

Beautiful work as always, Vaddoc. If I were you, I'd be tempted to post photos of the finished boat on Tad's FaceBook page. I'm sure he'd be pretty pleased with your boat. All the best Patrick

Hi Nenad It's not important whether the time goes fast or slow, as long as the memories are good. Judging by the photo of the hull, the memory looks sweet! Cheers Patrick- 4,152 replies

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.
