    Looks really nice. I am currently on this step, and you are correct, it is quite the effort 😐 . I hope mine comes out as nice as yours 👍

    I decided to go with the Polaris wooden ship model 1:100 from Occre for my very first wooden ship build. From my perspective the quality of the model appears to be very good. I just do not have any prior experience, so that i am able to make an educated comparison. I have already cut out the pieces and began dry fitting the bulkhead frames to the false keel. After that it was on to the gluing. I need to buy some contact cement tonight, so that i can begin working on the deck.

    @Papa Duke thanks for your reply and feedback. I might just hit you up when i need assistance. So far i have completed gluing the bulkhead frames to the false keel. This went rather well. I need to buy some contact cement tonight to begin working on the deck. I plan to upload some pictures in my build soon. i will share the link, so you can maybe give me some tips. Would love to have them.

    This looks really nice! I am newbie here and to Wooden Ship modeling as well. I have this ship on my radar for my first build 🙂. Would you say that this is a good ship for a beginner? Do you plan on doing the rigging and sails as well? Cheers!

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.
