    Hello Carl , thank you for your kind words and for visiting my build log. Regarding your question and according to the manual the planking should go right to the prow as i built it. Cheers Dimitris

    Hello Elia, thank you for your nice comments and for visiting my build log. This specific kit is probably a bit more complex for my level... but i am determined to do my best. I have seen other build logs at a Greek site for modellers and the specific kit of Mantua has some design flaws. The instruction manual is confusing given my limited experience.Thanks again Take care Dimitris

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.
