    If you dont get asked to display this very fine work of art in a museum (German Museum Possibly) then there is something very wrong in the world. OC.

    Your Biplanes remind me of an occasion when a kid stole a cupple from a shop and I shouted "Somebody stop them little Fokkers" OC.

    Very tidy methodical work there - she is a beauty, all those electrical connects remind me of a small electrical build I did on the bench at collingwood many years ago. OC.

    I just want to say a Huge thank you to all who had the patience to follow this build (I know it was like the British weather - off and on) well its been sold and sent on to someone who will either continue it him self or sell it, I wish him luck what what ever he does. OC.

    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.

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.
