    Hi folks thanks for the site, I'm very impressed. I'm not new to modelling, I first started as a young fella about 45 years ago, making plastic WW2 aircraft and armour. I gave for many years while I had my career in the Royal Australian Airforce. I've left the service and decided to take my hobby back up. I started again on WW2 armour and aircraft with the goal to get my skills up to take on a wooden tall ship. Primarily the ships that have historic importance for Australia. I mainly work on 1:35 armour and dioramas. My skills with plastic and paint are not first rate but quite good. Friends and family are all impressed, so that's all that matters. I've recently bought Artesinas Endeavour Long Boat and the Endeavour itself. I'm using the long boat as a familiarisation to the concepts of wooden ship building. I hope it works out for me. I've begun the Long boat model and completed the frame and initial decks. I've now got to shape and round the bow and begin the planking phase. Any advice on this stage, before I stuff it up, would be great. Anyway, wonderful to be on the site and hope to be part of great hobby group for years to come. I hope to hear from some of you soon.

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.
