    Hello everybody

    in New member Introductions

    Posted

    Hello there, I'm Pietro.

     

    While I'm not completely new to scale modeling, I am new to ship modeling, and I am looking forward to learning from the vast wealth of knowledge that is (apparently) on this website. I've always been interested in nautical history and sailing, and only about a month ago I had finally decided to take the plunge and buy my first wooden ship model... before getting stopped dead in my tracks by the challenge of planking the hull. So, I decided to take to the internet and see what I could find to help me along, which ultimately led me to MSW and the NRG.

     

    I'm now working on one of NRG's own Half-Hull Planking Project in an effort to learn how to properly spile planks, which is the technique, in my opinion, that shows the most promise for a beginner like me.

     

    Anyway, thank you for reading, and I look forward to learning from you all!

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.
