    Hello Jim and welcome aboard,

     

    This is a great place to learn and share tips and techniques.

    I think the Enterprise is an intermediate kit. But if you really want to build it, feel free to start a buildlog.

    If needed, you'll find plenty of advise, help and encouragement from everyone.

     

    One of our members, Adam (SkerryAmp) has created 'The Model Ship World Ship Kit Database'. http://mswshipkits.ampitcher.com/

    You can search the database on skill level, manufacturer, scale, kit type etc. It is certainly worth having a look.

     

    You also might have a look in the Ship Modeling Database of articles for information about Model Ship Kits - What to expect and Kit selection http://modelshipworldforum.com/ship-model-plans-and-research.php

     

    I wish you smooth sailing and happy modelling.

     

    Regards,

    Anja

    Welcome aboard Ed,

     

    There are some America builders here, but only from Mamoli. Haven't seen one from Bluejacket.

    I don't know if there is a practicum, but maybe one of our other members can help you.

     

    May I advise you not to share personal information like email addresses or phone numbers. This is a public forum, non-members can read this as well. Members can reach you by sending you a PM.

     

    Good luck with your search and your build.

     

    I wish you smooth sailing and happy modelling.

    If needed you'll find plenty of help and advise and everyone will answer any questions you might have on your build.

     

    Enjoy your stay here and I wish you smooth sailing and happy modelling.

    Hello Bruce and welcome aboard,

     

    Whatever you decide for your first build, make sure it has your interest and that you really want to build it.

    That way you'll be more likely to get through the trials and errors.

     

    And when you're ready, I hope you will join us by contributing your buildlog here.

    This is a great place to learn and share tips and techniques.

    If needed, you'll find plenty of help, advise and encouragement from everyone.

     

    I wish you smooth sailing and happy modelling.

    Model Shipways (Amati) Bluenose Plans?

    in Wood ship model kits

    Posted · Edited by Anja

    Hello Dave,

     

    Not only The Black Prince from Mamoli, but also Bluenose from Amati.

    You are a busy person. Did you start a buildlog yet for the Black Prince?

     

    Commercial use of plans is only allowed when written permission is granted by the draughtsman and/or owner of the original drawings. I think the plans are protected with a copyright.

     

    Construction plans for Bluenose are still available with Amati. contact@amatimodel.com

    Or check their website for retailers.

     

    Regards,

    Anja

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.
