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:
I just inherited a half-built model of Norske Lowe. Lots of plastic blocks and gun carriages. Don't like these fittings. Is Billings now providing wooden gun carriages and blocks? I've found some Russian made laser cut gun carriages that are about the right size. I hesitate to use them, they are not as detailed as the originals.
On my model the masts were built (and broken), but there is no rigging. Once I have cleaned out the dust, I will need to finish the deck and upperworks then start on the rigging. anybody got any advice on the rigging. I only have one drawing, no other instructions.
