  1. Fair American

    I built this ship with the goal of "painting with wood." There isn't a drop of paint on it. Woods used include Boxwood, Cherry, Ash, Pear, Walnut, Redheart, and Ebony.

    There once was a detailed build log here, but it was lost along with my detailed log on Pegasus when the site crashed several years ago

  2. Fair American - Glenn Barlow

    My rendition of the frame displayed build of the Fair American. One objective I enjoyed completing was "painting with wood" There is no paint on the completed model, all color comes from different varieties of beautiful wood.

  6. HM Nelson by glbarlow

    I added a few better focused and color matched photos to my existing album.  
     
    My back to basics kit after a multi-year layoff from modeling. It's semi-scratch built as most of the kit walnut was replaced and the deck furniture scratch built (other than the winch). I added a good deal of rigging, likely not historically accurate, but it wasn't a real ship so...  I enjoyed using Chuck's blocks and ropes throughout the ship, again replacing the kit material.  
     
    It was a nice re-introduction to modeling.

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.
