  1. Gran Grifon

    I made this model while working on board cargo ships in the early 80"s using whatever materials I could find onboard. I had no any schemes and was using only pictures found in books. It took me about 3 years to finish it. The ship is long about 25 cm and has a few interesting futures. There are about 20 micro lamps in the decks and aft (admirals) cabine. Every other canon of the most lower tier can shoot using electric ignition charges which I made. Ignition was trough turning the capstain below the bow of the ship.

  3. Portugese Carack

    This I started in the 90 but completed in 2006 so I had a digital camera and there are some interesting pictures of the ways I build this model. Again I had no professional tools and materials. Everything is made out from scraps and pieces I find onboard the ship I was working at that time

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.
