    I've been looking at your build and am very impressed. I am thinking of building this kit and wondering of you have some overall insights on what was good about the kit, and what might have been some "watch-outs". I do like the larger scale and love working on little details. I also have a slight hand tremor that makes it a bit challenging to do complex rigging, but this model does not seem too complicated - at least there seems to be more room to manage threads, knots, etc. than in a more fully-rigged ship. Thanks, in advance, carl

    Hi, I'm now building the African Queen. Did you have any success in finding the right kind of figurines for Bogie and Katherine??

    I'm building my first RV boat, Occre's Ulises. I have already applied fibreglass plus additional coats of epoxy resin. I am looking for some advice as to what kind of primer and paints to use to finish the hull. I have made quite a few static models and a basic primer and acrylic paints work well. I also have some SPAR varnish that someone recommending as a final coat. Advice anyone?

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.
