    Very nice model, congratulations! I have also built Caterina but in a larger scale and - as it turns out - with the antenna upside down... Niklas

    Very nice build! The oars came out great. I recently made my first oars and found it to be more tricky than I expected. Niklas

    Hi! Following your build with great interest, and I like your choice of woods. Did you use glue for the reinforcements? Niklas

    Hi Mike! Been following your display case build and I am very impressed! Now looking forward for some Cromwell! Niklas

    Hi Finally found some building time on my Rochefort. I made a promise to myself to do all the frames before summer ends and have only two left (not including the scary ones at bow and stern…) After that there will a lot of faring to do. Here’s some quick pics where I am right now. Niklas

    Ken, have followed your build all summer. Very impressed!
  12. Niklas
    It all looks very good! I'm also impressed by the building speed, and still so accurate! Niklas

    Tony, all four are interesting projects. I`m enjoying the Rochefort even if it´s a little more than I can handle, still I understand that Naiad is tempting. If I had the skill I'd might go for that one, but it's your choice. Don't know if this helps: I use my small scanner when I need copies for frames etc, but took the original plans to a professional copy place that printed out unfolded copies. Perhaps not super accurate but I can live with it. Your way of doing it is of course the best way to get it as perfect as possible. Niklas

    Very nice, Tony! Now looking forward to your Brixham... Niklas

    Thanks Per! Will keep some nail-polish remover close to my work shop! Niklas

    Hi! Slow work but have finally found a way to build the frames. I've seen others doing the lower parts first and it makes sense. Here's some first results:

    Hi Per. Just catching up. This is an interesting build, I really like this kind of boat! But I would probably have given up after that earlier mistake...btw: How did you unglue the wood? Niklas
  18. Niklas
    Yes, a very nice work place (hopefully the printer don't mind some dust...) I will follow this build with interest!! Niklas
  19. Niklas
    Thanks! And now: just another day in the sawmill.
  20. Niklas
    Catching up on your build. Impressive!!!
  21. Niklas
    First frame done. It needs sanding I but will save that for later.
  22. Niklas
    Thanks. Good to be back, again...:)
  23. Niklas
    Hi all Had to take a brake from building but now I appear to be back again, hopefully with some more regular updates. Finally done with the keel. Now on to do some frames! Niklas
  24. Niklas
    Very nice! Does all the plans including frames come with the book? Niklas
  25. Niklas
    Mike, just catching up on your excellent build. Your'e making a beautiful Cromwell! Niklas

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.
