    Hi Marcus The goal is to integrate 3D printing, model building and metal machining into a single showcase for the disciplines...Therefore not to much detail as regards to a particular ship... Thanks for the feedback Andre

    Definitely my most challenging Plasticity creation so far (beginning stage shown).... Concept for a Ship section that I will 3D print in PLA and Resin (for smaller parts) and turn the canons out of brass... Photo off the internet but don't know the ship. Also some artistic license.... Will make the STL files available on completion. Can obviously be scaled but I am aiming at a 16" high model

    Good day from South Africa I am 56, male and a Control Systems Engineer by profession. I am an avid RC helicopter pilot and modeller ( see attached, 2 of my models). Got into machining as an extension of the model building and as an exercise, I fond a nice cannon to make. This led to that and…well I am hooked on naval guns. Next project is a post mont Falconet…(hope that is what it is called) Wonderful work on this site…well done to all

    Good day Happy to have found this site. Thanks for admitting me. This started out as a machining exercise, but the project now spiraled into a whole new dimension. I will try and emulate some of the magnificent dioramas on here. Solid brass - Total length 220mm Not perfectly to scale, but I am happy with the results

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.
