Nautical Research Guild

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.

Hi
I just had to log in here for the first time, and say wow! the details of your Swift are amazing! I too wow'ed out loud when I saw the captain's desk. I inherited a half built older Swift (without the sails) and have just started to complete it. The hull and planking was already done, so am trying to fix all the many errors, and a lot of pieces were missing (maybe a sheet plan too because I kind of have to guesswork many parts). I might copy a few of your ideas (the pencil treenails for ex..) thanks for these excellent pictures - good job!
