    You will always be your own worst critic. It is looking pretty good, especially considering that it is your first build. Keep going!

    Very nice model!

    I actually just purchased this one recently and have it in my stash now. With what I plan on building I suspect it will be about 12-16 months before I get to start it. From looking at it, it does seem like a very well done kit with very detailed instructions. Just watch for it to go on sale. I think I got it for $170 which seemed like a great price.

    I model because it allows me to create something both artistic and technical. I have never been good at anything artistic nor at creating things with my own hands. I enjoy the personal challenge, as it allows me to work on and improve on something that I find very difficult. I choose ships because of their majestic appearance and the history and exploration that they represent. It also gives me a mental escape from stresses and responsibilities of the "real world."

    Welcome to MSW! I have been doing this a little over a year now, and I have found that The Ship Model Builder's Assistant by Charles G Davis and Historic Ship Models by Wolfram Zu Mondfeld seem to be the best books go spend the most using and have the most detailed, but general, information. They both have a textbook type feel to them.

    The final product looks great, as does the display with all three. Looking forward to your next build!

    Thanks! Yes, that is part of the fun though it may not seem like it in the moment. Each one is a learning experience. Thanks for following along!

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.
