    pick first build again...

    in Wood ship model kits

    Posted · Edited by Chinnflappa

    Ahoy mates,

    I’m new here so hello. If I may pick your mind a bit I want to try and build a kit once again.  I made a very foolish attempt about 15 years ago to build a kit that was so over my head it wasn’t even funny. It was a Constucto USS Constitution… one heck of a first build huh. So anyway I want to try again setting my sights just a bit smaller. I am thinking about one of these. What say you old salts?  Will these kits teach me what I need to know to advance in my building? Thanks in advance.

    maybe this one but at 40$ it seems too cheap to be good.

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.
