Special thanks to Tony Langdon for extra overhead and drone footage! On February 10th, 2019, the long-awaited second sailing video took place at Lake Neangar, Victoria. Nigel's 1:100 scale USS Missouri, and the general history behind the model, is showcased in detail, generating the expected fanfare from onlookers. Less fortunate was our drone for aerial footage which ended up losing control ov...

    Great work! I am beginning the design of a 1/87 scale USS Missouri. What did you use for plans?

    Inncorrect about the Hood their mate. It was the lack deck armour, was thinned to cruiser thickness for increased speed. The larger shells of the Bismarck penetrated the deck armour and exploded the forward magazine. Hood didn’t sink cause of lack of speed nor was it rudder size.

    Hi, this is the Port Albert Maritime Museum. We are honored to be able to announce that some of Nigel's collection will be on display at our museum from around end April this year. We're just in the process of getting the display organised, which has taken a bit longer than expected due to the vagarities of COVID. We will have the Queen Mary 1 & 2, Missouri, Oriana and Normandie, in addition to some of his smaller models. Once we have a firm date for the opening we will start promoting via social media and certainly will send invitations to the different model yacht clubs. We hope to see you here to see Nigel's amazing ships in person.

    When I was in the Navy back in 86 to 92 my USS HAYLER DD 997 was doing battle ex with the USS Iowa when they put it back in to commission before it had that fatal explosion when firing its 16 inch guns and watching the guns fire was most impressive. the ship would actually move to the left or right when it fired all the guns at once and the drift from the push of power of the guns is something you should see. These ships are the so impressive in person to see I wish I had a camcorder when this was going on. but my memory is there forever. they are very powerful ships!!

    Wonderful model! Beautiful work. At 41:55... If you allow me to give you my opinion, the speed is not to scale. Your ship is going a lot faster than 30/32 kt (55.56/59.264 kph). If you convert 30 kt to 1:100 cm scale, you will have to sail ten meters in 1.08 min (0.56 kph in 1:1 cm scale). 55,560 m ---- 60 min 1,000 m ---- X min X = (1,000 x 60) : 55,560 => X = 1.07991361 min One thousand meters in 1:100 cm scale tranlates to ten meters, so the model should sail ten meters in 1.08 min. Time will not vary as you know. I guarantee you that she sails a lot more meters in that ammount of time. Greetings from Brazil.

    What an absolutely stunning collection of magnificent ships. Incredible detail. Just wonderful! And what an awesome privilege it must have been as a youngster (and I assume that your parents were Dutch, please correct me if I am mistaken) to have been visiting on those ships and sitting at the Captain's table so many times. No wonder that you love those era of ships so intensely. As a Dutch boy growing up in that era as well I had a three page poster of Willem Ruys on my bedroom door. I also have a magnificent collection of model ships but not to the scale that you have. So I am in total awe of your work. Instant subscriber. Cheers from the Train Lord in Adelaide South Australia.
