Hi Denis Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! I'm just catching up after a couple of week's inaction due to our house being painted-I have to say, though, that your ingenuity in re-purposing materials into fittings for your boat is highly commendable. They look the bees knees! Nicely done. Cheers Patrick

Congratulations Dave!!!! Your SOS is certainly a triumph in skill and talent. Each update has caused me to marvel even more, from the initial hull, through to the ornamentation and moldings, right through to the rigging and, now the flags. Marvellous, just marvellous. Have a great Christmas and 2017. Cheers Patrick

Hi Bob Very, very nice. Those clerestory windows add, let's just say, a certain style and pizzazz to the overall ship. Very nice! Cheers Patrick

Hi Jeff Very clever 're-work' of the table. It looks fit for purpose and will put you in good stead for many more models to come. I'm looking forward to when you can christen it with your Preussen. Have a great weekend. Cheers Patrick

Hi Denis - thanks. She's coming along rather nicely, I must say. Sadly, time is scarce as our house is in a state of upheaval because the painters are going through the whole house. Hopefully, things will get back to normal soon, so that I can start building again. Hi Lawrence - Thanks and I have to admit that I also really like those water shots, as well. Shadow is really starting to look nice now. Kinda like all 'grown up' with her new colour scheme . Cheers Patrick

Hi Bob Nothing that's designed nowadays, (it seems), can come even close to the grace and classiness of the designs that were typical of the era of your boat. I guess that's why your boat has such widespread appeal. Oh.... and, what a top job you're doing, too! Cheers Patrick
-
Hi Vaddoc Lovely to see the hull starting to come together, with the keel, stem and sternposts added. Wow, she's big! You could easily fit some RC gear in her, couldn't you?? Hint... Cheers Patrick
-
Hi Michael Thanks for the compliment about the colours. It was a brave choice, but I'm glad it's paid off. All the best for the week. Cheers Patrick
-
Hey Kees I have to agree with Carl. That's a really nice glass storage compartment. There's nothing like good 'peace of mind', knowing that your hard work is well protected. Cheers Patrick

Hi Mark Wow. That's some seriously nice work, there. Pretty darn hard to find fault with anything that you've done. Nice!!! Cheers Patrick

Hi Nils Once again, exemplary work. You're definitely powering along with your KWDG. Before you know it, you'll be fitting the last piece and settling her into her display case. Nicely done! Cheers Patrick

Thanks Elijah! Yep, I get ya. It is kinda scary risking your boat in the water. Better to be safe, than sorry. Have a great week. 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.
