    Hi everybody, 40 years ago I got a kit of a wooden brig as a christmas gift … the task of planking the hull in combination with poor instructions and the lack of available informations set an end to this project. As I still love wooden model ships I have decided to try it again. For the restart I have picked the Albatros from Occre - 1:100 scale and already did it past the stage of planking … and I love it… I am addicted to frigates of the 18th century and have read all of the Hornblower books and have seen all the movies so HMS Indefatigable from Vanguard Models is the one I want to build in the future. On my way to her I will have to learn a lot and get used to the techniques I will need. In addition I want to get used to the Vanguard-style and plan to work my way up by building one of their cutters, the HMS Grecian, the Speedy and the Sphinx before I will finally be able to try the Indy. All help I will get from you is highly appreciated an maybe … some day … I will be of help to other fellow shipbuilders. Kai

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.
