    Hi Nenad Good luck with Mrs Nenad. Please pass my regards onto her. I hope that this is a minor setback and easy to overcome. Cheers and all the best Patrick

    Hi Rib I'll definitely be following along as well. Many years ago, I made a RC model of the clipper Lok Ard; so clippers will always have a special significance for me. All the best! Patrick

    Hi Cathead What an interesting subject for a build! I'm in. Cheers Patrick

    Ah, thanks Dimitris. That makes sense!

    Well done, Dave! It's great to get that sort of national and now, international exposure....good for you, as well as for the hobby.

    Hi Greg Dennis beat me to it. We've heard about the storm as well and I can only say that I'm glad you got through it okay. Dennis - If this is the end, then I'm going to sadly miss your AG build log. I kinda got addicted!!!! Maybe I need therapy, but it was, as they say in the classics, a "damn good build". I can't wait to see Mo and Curly come to life. All the best! Patrick

    Very nice work, Dave...especially those sea horses! Well done. Cheers Patrick

    Hi Mehmet Marvellous...just marvellous!!! Cheers Patrick

    Hi Piet It doesn't matter what angle you look at your yacht, she looks brilliant! Beautiful work. Cheers Patrick

    ....well, you know the saying..."happy wife, happy life..."

    Hi Pete Ok....now that really narrows the choices down to about a million possibilities. Let me see, I'm thinking something magically beautiful designed by Herreshoff again? If so, you would be spoilt for choices! Whatever it is, I'm looking forward to following along, that's for sure. Cheers Patrick

    Hi Dimitris Very nice work! I was also wondering what the white boxes were. Storage boxes would be the obvious suggestion, I'd imagine. What do you think? All the best Patrick

    Hi Dennis ...glad you got things back under control. I must say, the overhead shots of the trawl rig all rigged up is amazing. She looks the part, that's for sure. I was also wondering what "IRL" meant too, but now I think it means "In Real Life". Could be wrong, though... Cheers Patrick

    wow!, gotta love that F4E!

    Hi Owen Nicely done and she looks great! Keep up the good work and happy modelling. Cheers Patrick

    Hey Mike That's a glorious Sunshine, I must say! I hope she has many, many happy hours soaking up the surroundings and enjoying the ride. All the very best. Patrick

    Hi Carl Many thanks for your comments and all the Likes! I also liked your comment about the Dutch yachts. They always have so much character and charm, which makes them really appealing subjects to model. All the best Patrick

    Hi Jeff That's very high praise indeed. I guess the only thing that's stopping me from giving an SIB a go is the risk of choosing the wrong type of bottle. Knowing me, I'd probably choose one that distorts the view so much, that the overall effect would be spoilt. But, you know, never say never! Thanks and all the very best! Patrick

    Hi Mark She's coming along beautifully! Cheers Patrick
  20. Omega1234
    Nice!

    Hi Igor One word...Wow!!! Your ship looks just marvellous and you must be really proud of it. There's a wonderful sense of character and atmosphere coming from your model, which is not easy to build into a model, but you've done it in style. Very nicely done! Cheers Patrick
  22. Omega1234
    Thanks Piet for sharing your words and sentiments. Having read your experiences, and especially the fact that you've only recently had closure, just makes the reason behind Dave's efforts, all the more real. There are somethings that take time and in your case, I hope that your pain is now bearable. All the very best and take care. Patrick

    Nice job, Pete. I have to agree with Kate about the planking. Some things are worth showing off and your planking is no exception. Well done and I look forward to your next update. Cheers Patrick

    Hi Leo It's great to see your latest update because I was wondering how your ship was going. All I can say is 'very, very nice!". It's great that the individual components of the stem are still visible in the third photo (as opposed to being painted over) because it emphasises the care and complexity of the work you've put into it. The deck looks great as well, especially the colour of the wood. As far as the cannons are concerned, it certainly looks like you were able to overcome the problem because they looked really nice sitting on the deck. I really look forward to your next update. Cheers Patrick

    Hey Pete Come on! Don't be so miserly with the hints and clues. Honestly....it'd be easier to win the lottery (hehe). One, two, three masted? Fishing vessel? Schooner....? You got me on tender hooks here! 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.
