  1. Mantua – 18th Century French Naval Gun

    This is the Mantua Kit of an 18th Century French Naval Gun.
    I used very little of the actual kit, except for the barrel and some of the metal fittings. I used various woods from my wood collection. For example, the deck was some strip wood, sold as doll house hardwood flooring. I have my own little rope machine, with which I made all the rope. The blocks came from Jersey Ben .. ( Back when... )

  2. Gretel - Mamoli Kit - Scale 1:54

    This is a model I built a few years ago as a gift for a relative.  I lean towards creating an art piece, rather than a historically accurate model.  However, I now strive toward a more accurate scaling of various details, which were not provided in this kit.  I hope to be able to compare this effort with present and future efforts, as I take advantage of all the valuable information I have gleaned from Model Ship World.

  3. Yacht Mary by Gregory - Mamoli 1:54

    This is my Yacht Mary, just recently finished after working on it for over ten years.  Most of the rigging was completed within the last six months.  Lots of 'Chuck' blocks and rope that I made myself. 
    I learned a lot while building this over the years, particularly from the work and contributions of the members here at MSW, and back when Dry Dock Models was still around.

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.
