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.

Hi LS,
Love your work. I especially love the entirely reasonable "log" of your hours and must admit, that I thought I was the only model builder that did this....
Given that my woodworking skills are "lacking" to say the least....I've recently embarked on Heller's old 1/100 Goliath of a kit, the HMS Victory. This is a 2100 piece kit (according to the box) and I've recently logged my 31st hour..........without actually gluing a single piece together. Every part is cut from the sprue has been trimmed, filed and sanded.
The count continues....
Regards,
Dave
