    Thanks for all your positive reactions!

    The shipmodel I built was the skratch built ship of Willem Barents, scale 1 : 87. He sailed with it to Nova Zembla in the winter of 1496.  But I do not give names to the models, I only build types of ships. So this one is an early  Pinas. After 1500 the Pinas was a very common ship, but before 1500 it was somewhat different. Important inventions at the end on the 15e century were yet not practised on this vessel from 1496. 

    I always do a lot of research before I build my models.

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.
