    I have one recommendation for you. There is a website dedicated to paper modeling, www.papermodelers.com. It has individual sections for modeling in every genre, including one specifically for ships and watercraft. Members have really helped me on occasion! And, the work there can be incredible! Bill

    Bradley, Thanks but I do know this. I have been searching eBay but am not yet ready to purchase. Bill

    I'm looking for the old solid hull version. Bill

    Hello! I just found this build. OUTSTANDING WORK, and GREAT SAVE on the false keel! I'm impressed! Anyway, the kit now lists for $399.00 on Model Expo. It is a current listing. Bill

    Ditto!

    Heinz, Your English is much better than my German! And, you are doing an exceptional job with the Victory. Given that I have a goal to purchase this kit, that goal is still far off from reality. Bill

    You are never too old to venture into this hobby! I have a good friend over on FSM who is 90 years old and builds some of the most impressive models I have ever seen. It is a real pleasure to see his works, especially his newer models. If you are tempted to build this model, go for it! Bill

    Rob, I just found this build. Great work so far given your learning curve! Impressive! What happened to Y.T.? Bill

    Your paint job is spectacular! I have read of techniques like yours but have never seen it in photos. I will follow from hear! Bill

    I agree! The photos are fantastic. They will definitely help me with the Potosi! Bill

    Finally!!! An accurate model of HMS Beagle! The Mamoli kit is simply a carbon copy of the old Revell plastic model, which is a modified HMS Bounty. Occre did a great job in designing this kit. That said . . . You are doing a commendable job on your second ship, but it will need some touching up of the paint on your quarter galleries. I am very impressed with your hull and deck planking! Bill

    Ian, Thanks! Bill

    Far better indeed! I wondered how I would tackle this problem with their Cap Horn/Potosi kit. Now I know. Are these commercially available? Bill

    Ian, Looking great! Any luck yet with the railing? Bill

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.
