Good day/evening/morning all, well I have some good news followed by some bad, I decided to have another bash on the pearl, I had packed some of my tools away - so they had to be put back on the banch (table), so I blew off some dust (lots) and settled down to pick up where I left off as my hands have improved somewhat, but I now have a new handicap to bring to the table - yep irritating hay fever, not so much the whole shooting match but mainly I can see a flipping thing due to running eyes that are now inflammed and swollen. I take antihistermine tabs for it but the pollen count is especially high at the moment. So I made a concious decession - I will put the pearl away till the autumn/winter. Back to a tidy lounge table with part finished pearl sitting on the dresser - till next time. Sincerely and warmly thank you to all who take the time to read my words (not the best sometimes) and also thos who press the like thingy - ma - dingy. I will be back on here - Promise. OC.

Hi all, I have decided to have a sort out of my stash (small) un built/part built kits - I have nearly completed the HMS Greyhound Hull would say it is near 90% complete but needs masts/spars/rigging etc. I also have the HMS Peregrine kit thats un made (might have the odd small fitting missing) this is totally un made and is boxed as was brought. I also have a bag of wood stock including planks/dowels etc made up from both kits (so might need adding to - to complete both kits. I am based in the UK and any potential buyers would need to pay the postage please. I honestly have no clue what to ask so please if you are interested - make me an offer. Thank you for looking - here are the pics - OC.

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.
