Hi John and welcome to Model Ship World. I often hear of modelers looking for certain 3D printed figures for their models. A good source of some figures is Vanguard Models, whose owner is a member of this site. I believe there is a good market for 3D scale figures. -
Hi Wookie and welcome to Model Ship World. The Lowell Grand Banks Dory is an excellent kit to start learning the skills necessary to build wooden ship models. There are many build logs on this site for that kit. You have gotten off to a good start and you definitely want to bevel where the planks lie against the frames and the bottom. Keep up the good work.

Hi Jon and welcome to Model Ship World. Congratulations on finishing your Polaris. You did a good job on building this model and it came out very nice. I hope you start a build log on your Terror so we can follow your progress. -
You are doing a good job on your Lobster Smack. This kit builds into a nice model. The Shipwright Series of kits from Model Shipways is an excellent way to build your skills as you progress to more complex models.

Congratulations Chuck on this fine build. I have to echo the comments of those above. Truly a masterpiece. The build log is wonderful as it was interesting how you developed the various components and the thought process behind them. Truly enjoyable.

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.
