Swampscott Dory

My first build, the Swampscott Dory kit from BlueJacket Ship Crafters 1" scale.  Totally enjoyable build although I took longer in calendar days than I should have.  Life, work, relocation, anxiety.  All the normal reasons.  It's done now and I'm very happy with the end result.

 

Starting my 2nd build now, the Mary Taylor from BlueJacket Ship Crafters 3/16" scale.  It's definitely a step up in level of difficulty, but I'm excited and committed.  See my build log.

The Swampscott Dory was my first model as well.  I thoroughly enjoyed it - so much that I moved on to MS Bluenose and now MS Fair American.

 

Good job on your dory!

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.
