Very nice, Richard! Quick question-will you leave the hull unpainted? The natural finish would really set it off nicely, should you choose not to paint her. Cheers Patrick

Hi Igor I see it...but, I still don't believe it!!! How you can do these tiny boats and keep track of the rigging in the bottle is amazing. Lovely stuff. Cheers Patrick

Hi Michael Many thanks! Great to hear from you. My goal is to replicate as much detail as I can; using the logic "if it can be seen on the full sized ship, then it can be put on the model ". Cheers Patrick

Hi Dave I'm very sorry to hear that you've taken a turn for the worse. Please be assured that my prayers and well wishes are with you. The most important thing for you now is to focus on getting better and resting. Think positively and look forward to getting this well and truly licked, once and for all. Take care. Cheers Patrick

Hi Nils Very nice and uniformed in shape. I bet it was far harder than it looks, which makes your skills all the more apparent. Well done. Cheers Patrick

Hi Frank Many thanks! Working on the details is fun and, at best, it keeps me 'off the streets"!!! I hope you're getting better and the treatment's working. All the best Patrick

Hi everyone Last night I painted the main ship's wheel a wood colour (to match the full sized ship's wheel). I also did a few more of the fittings on the tip of the bowsprit. Lots of work still to go, of course. Here's the latest photos. Cheers Patrick

Hi Ken Very nice progress! Card kits have always fascinated me and yours is no exception. I was especially interested to learn how the humidity in your house can affect the card stock, because that's something that'd never have occurred to me. I guess that's one of the best things about these logs. We just keep learning. I'm looking forward to the next update. Cheers and all the best! Patrick

Hi Nenad I'm sorry to hear that once again, you and your family are facing challenging times. Life is not fair at the best of times, and you have certainly been hit hard. Please take care and be comforted in the knowledge that your MSW friends are thinking of you. Patrick- 4,152 replies

Hi Igor How are you? If you get a chance, could you please indicate how you made your steering wheel? If so, that'd be great, because I really struggle with these items, whereas you've done a brilliant job. Hopefully, this is okay with you. Cheers Patrick

Hi everyone A quick update for you. I've made a start on the rear cockpit's steering wheel as well as the smaller ship's wheel in the centre cockpit (see white wheel on the lid of the paint tin). Both wheels need to be painted a wood colour. I've also added the trailboards at the bow. Anyhow, here are the photos. Cheers and thanks Patrick

Yep. That's what we're here for!!! As well as enjoying your SOS, of course

Hi Tony I'm not sure if you're aware, but Igor has a giant matchstick. You, on the other hand, have a giant matchstick, as well as a giant dowel to rest your ship on!!!! You two must be competing against each other On a more serious note, your cannons look good and Igor's idea about the carriages also looks like it's a real goer. Regardless of whether you put the carriages on or not, I reckon she's gonna turn out brilliantly. Nice! Look forward to your next update. 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.
