    Hi everyone Many thanks for all of your Likes and comments! Well, so far, I've managed to give the jet skis and the engine their first coat of paint. I'm a bit disappointed about the quality of the first coat of paint because I'm using an old brush, which isn't the best for fine painting. I'll need to buy a new one before I paint anything else. I've also started on the starboard engine, which remains unpainted. There's still lots of work to go, of course. Here're the photos below. All the best! Patrick

    Thanks for the compliments about the jet skis. They're really teeny tiny, but simultaneously they were heaps of fun to build. I'm looking forward to more progress from your shipyard, but all in due course (of course). Cheers Patrick

    Thanks. The thought of working on the Danube sounds fabulous and of course, like so much in life, our hobbies sometimes have to take a back seat whilst we go to work. Nonetheless, it's great to see you back posting again. All the best Patrick

    Thanks Pete I was dreading the thought of doing the tiny jet skis, but in actual fact, they turned out to be easier than expected. I'm just in the process of painting them now. More pictures soon. Cheers Patrick

    Hi Mark She's looking absolutely lovely and you must be pretty chuffed with her. I agree with you, too, about the painting. Better to do it whilst she's still on the building board, rather than after separation, because it'll save you a lot of time and energy. Nice job, so far! Cheers Patrick

    Hi DJ.Bobo Great to see you're back. I was wondering why your posts had stopped for a while. Nice to see the progress made on the hull and the rudders. All the best! Patrick

    Hi Hakan Congratulations on your first Grandchild. Wonderful news! Your boat's hull is also looking great, so far. Well done on both counts! Cheers Patrick

    Hi Tadeusz Nice job on the props and the lifting frames. All in all, Maud's looking pretty spiffy

    Hi Denis Love those windows and the Q-Tips sound like a great idea. Jingle Bells is coming along nicely... I still don't know how you can juggle so many builds at the same time. I struggle with just one! All the best. Cheers Patrick

    Hi Pete What can I say, other than "A job well done is a job done well". She's a beauty, Pete! Congratulations Patrick

    Hi Michael Brilliant job on the deck! Cheers Patrick

    HI Pete Nice one! I'm on board. However, I think I'm losing track of your ships because you've got so many on the go Nonetheless, it's always a joy watching your builds and this sailing version, in particular will be beauty, for sure. Do you think you'd be able to do a working version of the rolling furling gear as well? Cheers Patrick

    Hi Steamschooner You may say that you've only done a "little bit", but it's often the smallest details that give the biggest impact. In this case, your skylight looks great and, yes, I agree that those brass rods would've been a pain to fit, but well worth the effort. Nice job! Cheers Patrick

    Very nice work on that teeny tiny rudder, Jeff! Well done. Cheers Patrick

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.
