    Hello HOF, Amazing work on the Bismarck. I am currently working on the Trumpeter Kit 1/200 with the PONTOS basic and advanced PE sets plus several veteran model resin and PE kits for various rang finders, some of the gun turrets. Getting a lot out of your build journey on this one. I have the Bismarck project posted on Scalemates.com and will be uploading pictures soon. Even though the kits are different media I am learning a lot from your build, comments and pictures. Thanks for sharing your journey!

    Hello, I've been in a member of this site for some time, but not actively following. I have been building models since I was a kid, and have always been attracted to sailing ships and airplanes. I build mostly plastic but have several wood ship kits in my stash as well. I like the larger scale models and usually get a lot of aftermarket kits for them to add detail and realism. I have build Revell's Constitution 1:96 scale, the Thermopylae, Heller's Bireme Emperator, Soleil Royal, Royal Louis, Le Chebec. In wood I have a French fishman and the Constitution cross section in progress (did dumb things like replace the green woodchips that came with the kit with individual copper plates made from copper sheet with scribe bolts. etc. Currently working on a little Heller 1/400 scale Narvik class destroyer Z-31. I tend to collect older kits, have most of the Heller Sailing ships, including HMS victory, Soleil Royal, Chebec, Realle de France, and many others. Also have the Constitution, United States, Susquehana, CSS Alabama, and many others in the stash. More projects to do than I have time, but I enjoy the craft. Will get around to posting some more pictures of the Chebec, see my profile pic.

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.
