    Hello everyone, My name is Alessandro and I am writing from the port city of Livorno, Italy. I have been building ship model kits for almost 40 years, mainly plastic and resin in 1/350 scale (some recently completed models are published in the gallery), but the HMS Indefatigable is my first serious work with a wooden ship model. Although aware of the intrinsic complexity of the model in question, the passion for two-decker ship of the lines and frigates pushed me to attempt the construction of a subject that in my opinion combines characteristics of both categories of vessels. I started building this model in February 2024, to date I have finished laying the external planking and will soon move on to building the interiors. I have made some changes to the original model as illustrated in the images that will follow. I hope my work will be of interest to you. Greetings! Alessandro

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.
