Ahhh. Ok Nils. Perhaps I used the wrong term by saying 'large scale'. I guess I was comparing it to my teeny tiny boats. What I should've said was a model that was perhaps, 2 to 3 feet long, at the most. That'd be roughly the same size as your wonderful Pandora. Just a thought. Totally your decision, of course! Cheers Patrick

Hi Nils Now, here's a thought...how about doing a large scale model of a modern mega-yacht (similar to what I'm building now). You could even detail the interior! It'd be right up your alley What do you think? Cheers Patrick

Many thanks, Igor. It's great to hear from you. I hope you're going well! Cheers Patrick

Many thanks Nils. I have to admit that I've never thought about how many individual parts she's got, but one thing's for sure, Shadow's been challenging, whilst at the same time, thoroughly enjoyable to build. I'm glad that you're enjoying the journey as well. Cheers. Patrick

Hi Igor. Ok. Now, I'm officially gobsmacked! Those sails look so real, it's not funny. Top job. Cheers. Patrick

Thanks for the compliments. I love what I do, so I guess that gives me the patience and determination to try to put as much detail as possible in my boats. Whilst far from perfect, at least they look good to my eye. Have a wonderful journey building your boat. I know that your Dad will be very chuffed with the final result! Cheers Patrick

Hi Piet Thanks Piet. You're right about your next build being emotionally charged. Without a doubt, it will be my (our) honour and pleasure to join you on your next build. All the best. Patrick

Hi everyone Thanks for all of your comments and Likes; all of which are greatly appreciated! I've done a bit more work on Shadow's Upper Deck; principally, her bridge (with the requisite bank of computer displays and control panels), her Captain's cabin, (that's the one with grey and black horizontal striping on the bulkhead to give it a masculine, yet hip decor and, other assorted minor details, too small and numerous to mention! I hope you enjoy the following photos. Cheers Patrick

Hey Piet Yey. I've finally joined the O16 Club!!! Better late, than never. First of all...what an outstanding job on your sub. Tiny, finely detailed and packed with sentiment, history and emotion. Nice job! Secondly and far more importantly...mighty fine news on the melanoma front! That's worthy of a huge shindig. Congratulauons! Cheers Patrick

Oh oh Nils!!!! I feel a certain feeling of dread; fueled by a strong sense of dismay😏. It can't be true, can it??? You're building the display case now? That can only mean one thing ....Your wonderful KWdG's journey must be coming to an end. I can't believe it, because following your Build Log has been tremendously enjoyable. What's next??? Cheers. Patrick

Hi Carl That's true. Oh well, if you're really that desperate, there's always lots of water outside.... Cheers Patrick

Hehe Denis. You're not wrong. There're five decks to get totally lost in; so it comes as no surprise that you're having trouble finding the bathrooms. I keep getting totally confused each time I look at the plans, so I know how you feel😉 Have a great weekend. Cheers Patrick

Thanks Denis! You're not wrong about following lots of Logs! Looking through the many Logs on MSW that I follow is definitely one of my great means of inspiration and enjoyment. It's just a shame that there's never enough time in a day to get through them all. Roll on retirement, I say! 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.
