Many thanks.

If you could see some of the errors I've made, especially with some of my rigging then the bar is not set that high🤣

Congrats Glenn.  Beautiful looking model.  Although I caught up late, it's been a pleasure following along with the finish.  Great job on the build log; a lot of detail for others to follow.

Congratulations Glenn.  Very nicely done, and quite rapidly as well!

Thanks Gunther

It took me 6 months to build and I spent around 3 to 4 hours per day on the build.

Well done Glenn!   When you get your display case, could you post a picture of it?  I'm always looking for ideas.

 

Also wanted to let you know I've started the Duchess and your build log has already been useful.  Thank you for doing the log and including lots of photos.  I'll continue to look at it as I work my way thru.  So far I really like the design of this kit.

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.
