    Hey Nenad. It’s great to see you back at the workbench. That’s certainly an ingenious method for doing the clinker hulls; which I’m certain is going to result in some very convincing ship’s boats. I can’t quite believe how quickly Rhea has grown. She must be eating you out of house and home! Cheers Patrick

    Hi Piet It’s great that you’ve got the Ms Java kit now. After having read of the significance that this ship has for both you and Gwen, I have no doubt that you will do it justice. I look forward to following along. Cheers. Patrick

    Hi WB Congratulations! What an absolute beauty. Irrespective of whatever shortcomings you may point out, I reckon she looks clean and sharp. Nicely done! Cheers. Patrick

    Hi Frank Woohoo!!!! Welcome back. I hope you had a great vacation. Lovely work on the cabins and interior work. I must admit that the magnetic squaring jig is a really nifty idea. It all looks like everything’s coming together beautifully. Cheers. Patrick

    Hi Carl Yes, sadly you're right about getting closer to the end. Shadow is and always will be, a thoroughly enjoyable model to build; so, it'd be a bit sad when the finishing line is crossed. On the other hand, my next model eagerly awaits. Please have a look and let me know what you think: http://www.boatinternational.com/yachts/the-superyacht-directory/adastra--58067 Cheers Patrick.

    Hi folks Thanks for all of your comments and Likes! You know, I have always wanted to try to emulate one of those “3D exploded version diagrams’ of Shadow’s decks: you know, the type of diagrams you see so often in technical drawings, etc. Well...here’s my attempt to progressively show how all of Shadow’s decks fit together, (in 3D fashion). I’m not sure how successful I’ve been, but, here goes: Have a great weekend! Cheers. Patrick

    Hi Igor Outstanding!!!! I especially love the lights and name plates. Speaking of which, how’d you do the lettering in the name plates? Cheers. Patrick

    Thanks Denis! Have a great weekend. Enjoy! Cheers. Patrick

    Hi Adrian Simply outstanding! Cheers Patrick

    Hi Carl Many thanks. Yeah, I reckon some of Igor’s ships could easily fit inside Shadow. Amazing stuff Igor does; that’s for sure! I wish I could spend more time working on Shadow, but getting the time to do it, is getting increasingly difficult. Oh well... such is life I guess. Have a great week! Cheers. Patrick

    Hi Vaddoc. Congratulations on reaching this milestone! She’s looking brilliant. Cheers. Patrick

    Thanks Frank! Yep, you're right. It's good to be back at the ole shipyard, again, that's for sure. Cheers Patrick

    Hi everyone. Many thanks for for all of your comments and Likes! Well, today, I received the wonderful ‘gift’ of time. Yep-Time to work on Shadow. As you can see from the following photos, I’ve been able to do more work on the Lower Deck’s accommodation, namely, more cabins, cabinets, cupboards, a crew’s staircase leading down into the Bilge Deck and many other details which are too small to photograph effectively. Still heaps to go, folks! Cheers. Patrick

    Haha. Chuffed = happy, satisfied, glad....
  24. Omega1234
    Thanks Lawrence! All the best. Cheers Patrick
  25. Omega1234
    ...just believe in yourself more. You actually did a mighty fine job on the guns!!! I, for one, would be chuffed if I built them as well as you did. 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.
