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.

Hello everyone.
Thank you for letting me join.
My name is Rodolfo, a sixty-five old Italian, retired with the passion for modelling.
I like all models of planes, ships and trains, but in the last sixty years I have only thought to the railways and here are some pictures about them.
When I was fifteen I built the Golden Star, as usually it happens, but I wasn't satisfied.
After so many years, I've decided to try the building of the Coca (Spanish cargo sold by AMATI), because she's very nice and not usual.
Before starting, I've collected a little of documentation,and, as a consequence, I decided to change some details.
Have a lot of good sawdust, all of you!
Rodolfo
