    Seeing your preliminary work with “Masséna” motivated me to send words of encouragement. I built this ship in card/paper in 2014, and had great fun with it. It was a challenge, but it provided many hours of enjoyment. For myself, the unique characteristics were an endless source of fascination. The design features of the early French Predreadnought warships take many twists and turns, none more so than “Masséna”.

    One can plainly see when the builder is enjoying the work. Fascinating to see how all the rigging functions. It is so clearly displayed on this model. Also . . . always nice to see Imbir (briefly) supervising everything.
  14. Michael Mash
    I have not watched enough sail ship builders to know how many of them create rigging this way. That said, this seems to be more than a model built for appearance. This looks like a demonstration of how the rigging on the actual ship really worked. It makes me realize that if I ever decide to build a sailing ship, I had better first learn how all the rigging is designed to function.
  15. Michael Mash
    Your videos are just as good, or maybe better, than standing there in your workshop, watching your techniques.
  16. Michael Mash
    Clearly . . . you have an “extraordinary” understanding of how the rigging works on old sailing vessels. I have only one question: Where is Imbir? He was not in the video. I hope he is doing well.
  17. Michael Mash
    Your handmade ropes and rigging play a critical role in holding everything together . . . just like they did on the real ship.

    . . . skill of a surgeon . . . . patience of a saint . . .

    Hello Olha, When your sails came out of that varnish/turpentine solution, they looked like a mess. But . . . . (I am learning) . . . . I know when you get finished with them, they will be beautiful. Mike

    Hello Olha, Looking forward to watching your work with this Viking ship. And . . . of course . . . it is always good to have Imbir's approval. Mike
  21. Michael Mash
    I watched the video of your “Shipmodeler’s Assistant” (lmbir) doing his work with the yard arms. I think he is a valuable member of your team, and I hope we see more of him in the future. Mike
  22. Michael Mash
    Happy New Year Olha. Where do you find the music for your videos? It's perfect!
  23. Michael Mash
    Hello Olha, I watched video #36 (How to Make a Mouse). Your videos are so well produced, that any builder can learn your methods for doing this marvelous work. You show every step clearly. I am curious about how you make your videos. Question: Is it not very difficult to do all that work down in front of a camera lens? Or do you have many cameras installed around your workshop? Thank you, Mike

    Great fun watching you develop this behemoth 5ft rendition of Charles Martel. Mike

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.
