    Hi Denis It's great to see that you're able to work on Syborn, after all, it's been a while inbetween posts. The mast with the fittings that you're adding is going to look great. That, together with all the other details that you'll add will make Syborn a really character-filled beauty. I'm definitely looking forward to more updates! Cheers Patrick

    Thanks Denis! I'm happy with the creation of new words. 'Fantabulous' sounds good to me. I'm going to Google Lepidoptera now. Is that the fruit fly???? Cheers Patrick

    Hi Frank Gotta love your work! Here in Australia, we have many names for it - loo, dunny, a thunder-box; to name a few. Whatever it is that you call it, yours is very impressive. Now, all that's missing is the queue to use it!

    Sounds like quite a challenge, Piet. I've pre-booked my seat, of course! Cheers Patrick

    Hi Steve I like the idea of the LED lights. Hopefully, you'll be able to post some night shots once they're installed. Cheers Patrick

    Hi Rob Wow! There's no doubting the sheer beauty of the hull and you've done her proud. Nicely done. Cheers Patrick

    Very nice work, Daniel You must be pretty chuffed! Cheers Patrick

    Hi Piet You certainly like a challenge, don't ya? I mean, trying to carve either one of those Lions would seriously do my head in. But, I know you've got it in you to pull it off. I agree with Jesse though, the second option is probably more viable. Regardless, I'm looking forward to seeing your next update. Cheers Patrick l

    Hi Wayne Ouch!!! I agree with you. If only we could turn back time....Nice save though. She looks none the worse for wear, though (luckily). Cheers and all the best Patrick

    HI Steve Nice! She keeps looking better and better with each update. Cheers Patrick

    Many thanks Glenn! I'm kinda itching to get going with the new boat, as well. Stay tuned for a new Build Log soon! All the best. Cheers Patrick

    Thanks David Ahhh! Fishing! What a coincidence that you've mentioned 'fishing' because I have actually toyed with the idea of leaving a couple of fishing rods casually placed in the ship's tender. However, at this scale, they'd be so tiny that they'd be hard to see. Still, who knows. I may yet give them a go. No harm in trying, I guess. Have a great week. Cheers Patrick

    Hi Glenn Simply marvellous! Cheers Patrick

    Hi Frank Many thanks. You're right about the next one, though. Shouldn't be too far away from starting a new Build Log for her. Cheers and all the best! Patrick

    Hi folks Not long to go before Majellan's finished! I've added the anchors into the anchor-wells and added the capstan drums and bollards (temporarily placed at this stage) at the focsle. At the rear, Majellan's tender and one of her jet-ski's are ready for launching on the rear fold-down deck. The second jet-ski will be mounted some distance behind the hull; once the display stand has been built. Enjoy the rest of your weekends! Cheers Patrick

    Happy Birthday Elijah!!! Great gift and I hope this is the best of days for you. Here's looking at many more to come. Cheers Patrick

    Sounds good, Rob. There's always more than one way to skin a cat! In otherwords, you don't have to stay the course if your own methods work. Afterall, why not? Cheers Patrick

    Hi Frank Welcome back from your vacation! Lovely work on the mast steps and wedges! Cheers Patrick
  21. Omega1234
    Hey Rob Nice job on those chain plates. You must be pretty pleased with how she's looking so far. I know that I certainly am. All the best! Cheers Patrick

    Hi Nenad I feel for you. Got to be worth it, though. I guess all you can do is have a nice cold beer and sit under the shadiest tree in your backyard...and wait...! All the best! Cheers Patrick

    Hi everyone and thanks for all of your comments and Likes! Well....look what Majellan's naughty rich guests have done. They've dragged their chairs up to the tiny piece of deck in front of the Bridge's windows. What's more, one cheeky guest has even brought up her own umbrella to shade from the sun! And all of this in full view of the Captain! Outrageous, I say! Anyhow, in reality, I've added the umbrella, a table and an assortment of chairs to bring some 'life' to this part of the bridge deck. To further add atmosphere, the chairs are haphazardly pointing in different directions, as if to give the impression that the guests have just left in a hurry. I hope you enjoy the photos. Cheers Patrick

    Hi Mick Lovely work!!! I especially love the photo of the hull sitting in your hand! Cheers Patrick

    Hi Keith I love the addition of the sawhorses and the partially completed cabins. She's looking more and more realistic with each addition that you make. 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.
