Hi Glenn Marvellous, marvellous, marvellous. From someone who can't even bend a wire straight, let alone solder it, you have my upmost respect! Cheers Patrick

Hi Frank Excellent tutorial! I hope you're justly rewarded with a good liquid refreshment after doing the frames, because you deserve it. Talk about fiddly work! All the best and I'm looking forward to your next update. Cheers Patrick

Thanks Frank! My ships are a fraction of the size of yours, so progress is always going to be quicker for me, though. Stay positive with the framing and I'm sure you're going to overcome the gremlins that've crept in. I look forward to your next update. Cheers and all the best! Patrick

Hi Frank Super progress so far. She's going to look great and like other's have said, why stop at building a cross-section? I'd be tempted to build the whole hull. Come to think of it, if you could just send me your scrap box of discarded frames........hehehe! Cheers Patrick

Hi Nenad Great work on the buckets. I love 'em. What's even more, is the fact that your whole outlook to building Her Majesty is inspiring. Never give up. Just give it a go. Try, try and try again. Success will come. I love that attitude. Cheers Patrick- 4,152 replies

Hi Mark Thanks and I think your decision to change the keel would definitely enhance the overall design; not that it's current appearance is not good. But, you've got to do what you feel is right and makes you feel good. Al the best! Cheers Patrick

Hi Denis Bob took the words right out of my mouth! It's the little details such as these that bring a model to life. "Rich in detail...Rich in life" Nice one! Cheers Patrick

Hi Mark Looking great, especially the anti-fouling colour. The original half model looks interesting as well. It also looks like you were at some sort of function room/restaurant. I'm curious as to whether it had something to do with the half hull model being on display? Cheers and keep the updates flowing. Cheers Patrick

Well...Dave. About your plan...What can I say. You're either very brave, or very foolish. Either way, never forget "Happy Wife Happy Life and you cross this adage at your own risk!

Just unbelievable Igor. I love the chimney with the piping and its other associated details. The ships boats are mighty fine, as well. Love it all. Cheers Patrick

Hi Nils That's fantastic to hear and whoever is lucky enough to purchase your Gorch Fock is going to be one lucky chappy! I understand about your reluctance to set up a business, but should you still go ahead, I'm sure you wouldn't be out of work. Good luck! Cheers Patrick

Unbelievable work, Nils! Ever thought of selling them as a business? There's bound to be people after one, or two of your little beauties! Cheers Patrick

Hi Glenn-many thanks. That means heaps to me, especially when I look at your build and dream about being able to do what you're doing. Thanks Piet. I'll be the first one to hop on board your build, should you chose to do a miniature ship. Come to think of it, I have little doubt that you would absolutely ace it!!!! Cheers and all the best to you both. Patrick

Hi Nils Your fingers may be itching to get back to the build, but your back says otherwise. I'm sure that your Admiral is telling you to rest as well. Take care and I hope that all goes well! Cheers Patrick

Hi Lawrence Many thanks for the belated Birthday wishes. I had a great day and hopefully I'll continue to have many more to come. I'm glad that you're enjoying my build log of Majellan, because she's certainly lots of fun to build. All the best! Cheers Patrick

Hi everyone I hope you're all well. Just a short, but quick update. I've started on the construction of the Bridge decks interior accommodation. In particular, although you can't see it clearly, is the Bridge Deck's control console. The steering wheel will be added later. There's also a drink's bar amidship, together with other assorted items, e.g. the round coffee table. All the best 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.
