    Hi Nenad My heart goes out to you, your son and daughter. I can't imagine what you're going through at the moment. I will pray for you all. Please take care. Patrick

    Hi Dennis Just looking at the last few photos of your drilling efforts, it doesn't take much imagination to think how good the ship's going to look all lit up at night. I look forward to the next update. All the best Patrick

    Hi everyone Thanks for all your comments and Likes! Here are the latest photos of Symphony's progress; in particular I've built the oval shaped rear helmsman cockpit as well as done a bit more on the main cabin, e.g. companion way framing, etc. The rear cockpit is still to be sanded and fitted out with the seats, binnacle, wheel, etc. Hope you enjoy the photos. Cheers Patrick

    Hi Nenad My deepest sympathies to you, your wife, son and daughter on the sad loss of your mother and grandmother. My thoughts and prayers are with you all. Patrick

    Hi Mark I love the framework of the hull. It has a beautiful symmetry and gracefulness that's hard to describe. It'll be a shame to plank it, but plank it you must (of course). She's certainly a real looker. Cheers Patrick

    Hi Cristiano What a brilliant milestone to reach. Everything is so beautifully and neatly done, that it represents a major achievement that you must be really chuffed about. Well done and congratulations. Cheers Patrick

    Beautiful. Beautiful. Simply Beautiful, Pete. That teak adds a really special touch, that's for sure.

    Hi Carl, David, Peter, and everyone who commented and hit the Like button. Greatly appreciated! Well, I've done some more work on Symphony's deck, in particular the cockpit flooring. On the real ship, this cockpit houses two long rows of benches for passengers and paying guests to relax. The cockpit also leads to the grand staircase via the main companionway, both of which will be built later. Heaps more cleaning up to go, though. Hope you enjoy the photos. Cheers Patrick

    Ahhh! Sometimes it's the easiest methods that seem the hardest to think of. Nicely done, Igor.
  16. Omega1234
    I'm happy to wait, Mark, because the results of your learning curve will be worth it! All the best Patrick

    Hi Igor Beautiful sails? Quick question-how did you print the lettering on the mainsail? Look forward to more updates, as always. Cheers Patrick
  18. Omega1234
    Very nice. Two hulls for the price of one, Mike! Are you tempted to complete both hulls?
  19. Omega1234
    Hi Nils Even though the hull is still at the framing stage, there's no doubting her beauty and gracefulness. This is going to be another "Nils Masterpiece" for sure! Cheers Patrick

    Hi Ben Lots of techie stuff in your build, but once it's all fine tuned, you'll be off and running again. I'm looking forward to the next update. Cheers Patrick
  21. Omega1234
    Hi Jon Nice to see some water shots! She looks great in her element. I bet it won't be before long and your beautiful sails will goes on. I look forward to your next update! Cheers Patrick

    Thanks Dennis, Jeff, Marty and Ben for your comments and Likes. Ben- a special thanks for your vote of confidence and compliments. After having one of the worst days at work today, your kind words has picked me up a bit. Very grateful. Thanks Patrick

    Hi Ben Many thanks, but I don't know about being fit for a museum....it's a nice thought though! As for the deck and cabin, they're only fitted temporarily at the moment, because you're right, I'll need complete access to the hull when the internal construction starts. All the best! Patrick
  24. Omega1234
    Hi Dennis Clever work on enhancing those railings! I'm looking forward to see all the decks assembled, as well, because that's when it'll all start falling into place. Nice work. Patrick

    Hi everyone Many thanks for your Likes and comments. Piet- I love the symphony analogy. I hope I can get a good round of applause once the concert's over! Well, I've done a little bit more of the large oval cabin; in particular the roof beams. Heaps more sanding, cleaning up and work to go, though. Hope you enjoy the photos. 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.
