Thanks Carl Mmmm...palm trees, heh? I reckon I could rustle up a couple of them😏 Cheers Patrick

Hi Thistle17 I'm definitely in! This looks like it's going to a really different and unusual subject matter to model. I'm kinda struck by the colour of the hull above the waterline...it reminds me of green floating algae! Is that just a coincidence, or was it chosen to blend in with the river water colour? Just curious. Cheers Patrick

Calling Captain Bob. Calling Captain Bob! Hi Bob. I've become a bit concerned that you haven't been posting for quite a while. I've sent you a PM a while back, to check to see if you were ok, but I've not had any response so far. I hope all's well with you and your Admiral and that you're able to rejoin MSW soon. All the best! Patrick

Hi Frank I see what you mean about the difficulty in retro-fitting the interior of your boat. That won't be easy. However, maybe you may be tempted to do another full hull with all of the interior in it? Cheers Patrick

Hi Frank Thanks for the compliments about my J Class Rainbow. In fact, it's modelling the internal accommodation of a boat that gives me the most satisfaction, so it's no surprise that I'd fully encourage you to do the same for your boat. Furthermore, from what you've shown us so far, it should be a walk in the park for you to do. Whatever you do, please don't forget to start a Build Log for us to enjoy and follow. Cheers Patrick

Hey Nenad Great to hear from you! Sorry, no magic. Just having a whole lot of fun doing it. Maybe that's the secret? Have a great week and thanks for stopping by. Cheers Patrick

Hi Frank Flattening the chine line must've been a fair deal of work, but, oh, so worthwhile now that it's done. You know what? Something that has also struck me is just how shapely the hull is. Low, flat, with a broad beam, a lovely sheerline and a lovely stem, she looks 'fast' even whilst she's stationary. Nice. Very nice. Cheers Patrick

Hi Dave I bet that when you started your cannons, you thought it'd be a long shot (pun intended) that you'd be finding it such a challenge...but, in true fashion, you've done brilliantly well. Great work. Cheers Patrick

Hey Mark Like everyone else, I too was wondering what had happened to you. Sorry about the stroke, but I'm sincerely happy to hear that you're on the mend! Stay well. Cheers Patrick
-
Hi Brian Ahhh, good question. As with anything I do, sometimes it's the simplest solution that works out the best. To make the water, I lined the interior of the spa with a light blue cardboard and then poured in some superglue to give it a translucent effect. Not bad, I thought. I hope this helps. Cheers Patrick

Hi Greg Shhh! I've been sworn not to tell anyone where I got those giant fruits from😉 Seriously, though...Thanks for for the compliments and I hope you're keeping well. 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.
