    A great action shot, Mark! The 'Maluka' looks like she's really charging down the harbour! John

    She really does look the ant's pants, Mark! John

    The model looks superb, Nils. It was quite usual for large ventilators to be turned by a gear mechanism. John

    Popeye, Just for reference, these are the pumps on my model of the 'Nautilus' for reference. I would think that your pumps are the same type. John

    That diving gear really looks the goods on that figure, mate! John

    Hello JJ, and a warm welcome to the forum from 'Down Under'. That's a very nice looking 'Victory' you have there. John

    The block looks excellent Keith - only a few dozen more to go. John

    She's really coming along well, Fred. A real credit to you. It's interesting to hear that the 'Fulani' had a crows nest. On any of my old ships, when we needed an additional lookout high up we just used the fore crosstrees. John

    Michael, all that detailed machining is a bit beyond me, but the end result is first class. John
  21. Jim Lad
    She's coming along well, Russ. That's a cunning idea for transfering the line onto the bulkhead. John

    Lovely job on the rudder and tiller, Toni. John
  23. Jim Lad
    A very professional looking job, Mark. John

    What a great experience, Ken - and an excellent idea to record some oral history while the information is still available. John

    Good to be able to finally say hello, Rob! John

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.
