    I have just purchased Oc Cre Hms beagle and would appreciate any members comment on the following. How accurate is it? Has anybody improved on the accuracy? I have just watched the YouTube video series on the model construction and although very informative I would like to tone the appearance of the finished model down to give a more "compelling impression" (to quote Tom Lauria). Maybe I've entered a mine field here but if you don't ask.........! Regards Pete Collins

    Happy New year to all I am happily retired in Somerset UK. Career background in engineering. Have been wood carving for nearly 15 years but have always held a keen interest and fascination in "Nelson era" sailing ships. Having watched many YouTube videos on ship modelling l decided it was time to have a go. Looking through some of your Build Logs brigantine Leon lept out as a suitable subject having got the plans and Harold Underhills books. But not wishing to run before walking l bought H. M. Schooner Pickle kit as perhaps a more modest starting point. Hope to create build log as it progresses. Hope this is acceptable as an introduction. Many apologies if long winded. Regards Pete Collins

    Have just ordered Caldercraft Hms Pickle so will be following any references on Model ship world. Very keen to produce as near scale model as possible. Any info will be much appreciated. Pete Collins (new to model ship world so hope this message is OK)

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.
