I thoroughly enjoyed building this model. Those Vanguard kits are the best. As you can see from the pictures I have not coppered the hull. I really don't like copper tape. In the past I have coppered the hull of the Caldercraft Victory and that turned out very nicely. In the future if I choose to copper a hull I would use the individual, embossed plates that Caldercraft supposedly has in stock. The ship is presently sitting on top of the case for my HMS Flirt. I have the case on order from Model Expo. Note that case and glass end up costing more than the actual model! (but worth it!)

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.
