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.

Very happy to hear you will return to your USS Constitution build. Also pleased to see your latest Titanic project! Have you found the Titanic Research & Modeling Association archive? The site has been closed for quite some time, however all of it was archived here: https://web.archive.org/web/20180330092710/http:/titanic-model.com/
Right click and open in a new tab. And if you haven't seen it already, be ready to be amazed!
All of it is 'build specific' to the Minicraft 1/350th however invaluable info. for any scale.
There's also a site called the Rivet Counter/ The Official Titanic Scale Model Tutorial: http://www.rivet-counter.com/Tutorial/Tutorial_Index.html
Tons and tons of historic accurate research! You can spend months just perusing.
Anyway, I thought some hardship had perhaps befallen you, so glad to see you around.
FYI, it was your Constitution build log that convinced me to become a contributing ($) member to both the NRG and MSW. I'm sure I'm not the only one : ) .
Best regards and thank you for your generosity.
