Well my AV building has been temporarily put on hold. Just temporarily. My grandson (10 years old) enjoys helping me build my ships when he is at my house. He asked me the other day if I would help him build one of his own. Of course. Absolutely! What grandfather could say no to that. So picked up the Airfix Golden Hinde. We were in London recently we saw the replica. So we started it and will work on it from time to time when he is here. School starts next week so he will not be here real often. But when he is my AV will take a back seat to the Golden Hinde. He wants to go with a modified color scheme that a white hull and colorful top similar to other galleons we see pictures of. &nbsp

On a side note I now have all the hull lighting installed on my AV.

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.
