    Incredible work! I'm also doing the Polaris, though I'm a bit behind you (I'm halfway through planking). Looking forward to following your progress. Perhaps a simple question, but any tips for sanding the hull after first planking? Any inexpensive tools that were helpful?

    Hi everyone, I've been reading this forum for a while and finally made an account because this community seems so incredibly helpful and supportive. I started getting interested in ships after reading several books on whaling & Antarctic exploration, and decided to ease myself into the hobby with the OcCre Polaris kit. Currently halfway through planking and I'm making mistakes, learning a lot, and having fun with it. It's my first-ever model anything, and Havelock's build log has been my saving grace! Other hobbies include gardening, NYT crossword puzzles, and drinking scotch...I'm a grandpa at heart despite being a 30 y.o. woman 😄 Cheers! DrK

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.
