708 hours It was nice to get back into the build, and continued where i left off last July. Im not sue i like the gun-port rope work, or maybe i should have painted the hinges the same colour blue rather than leaving naked, they might haved blended in a bit better. the brass profile above is just temporary as are the black deck boards

Dah Dah ( sang as a fanfare) The big day came and went, all the crowds, the skimpy dressed cheerleaders, a top billing of big musicians - all to celebrate- the long awaited event . Although that is not strictly true, infarct there was only me and the wife who opened the door for me - like royalty ( still not quite true) in fact she opened it just to be able to shut as i passed through to stop the cold wind entering the house - oh i did have the ipod playing some trance music in the background, with the bass provided by the 5 wabbits - all stomping as i had disturbed there evening kip Celebrate what i hear you all say the build has re-started

hello everyone, yet again my weekend has come to an end, yeah ok it is the middle of the afternoon, but have things to do, and i have avoided all the news all day to watch the Australian F1 race this evening, i would watch it live but the weather affected the qualifications so messed my routine up anyway, i have totally rewired my garage, and put in place a full ring main, new lighting sockets, aerial points, just tidying it all up now, had to clean the mess up to take the photos i will be building a table next, to free stand in the middle of the room so that i can work on the build from any side, i hope to complete that by this time next week. all the best

After 30+ years in the Royal navy,I retired 3 years ago. Being around warships and submarines,all that time, it is surprising just how quickly you forget about the small details required to make a vessel operate, it is not until you see the plans of yr build, seeing all the inlets, outlets deck fittings etc, the things that take a average model into something special, i will follow with intrest, good luck

my garage conversion continues, raised floor ceiling and walls are finished, the barrier between me and the wabbits is 90% done, at present i am working out work top area and storage, still on track for a Easter restart. i fully appreciate this is a hobby site for boats and not loft/ garage conversions, if anyone is concerned with this, please tell me and i will stop posting non Victory related stuff

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.
