    Thank you Greg! It's really hard..... but I try!

    One of the advantages of this scale is that you can use all the wood waste from previous jobs!

    I started my new project, a little ambitious, on an almost impossible scale: I always admired extremely small models, always convinced that it would have been an impossible job for me. It's a challenge against myself! Obviously I started from the keel and it is already difficult to be able to keep the straight line.

    I started a new model with Navyboard technique. For this project I am using Harold Hahn's drawings and the model will be in 1:72 scale. I hope to be able to do something good!

    I have been following you for a long time! Your work is excellent, clean and with an enviable precision! Your construction method is absolutely extraordinary! It would be nice one day to be able to see your model live and meet you in person!

    How is a small decoration born? Many ask me what technique I use or what tools I use for the small decorations of my model. I thought that maybe a video can give the right answers. Obviously it's a lot of speed up, it took me about three hours to make a small frieze like the one in the video, but I think you understand it well .... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6cl5zRTmyYM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OzEC_9yf4Sg

    Finally I decided to give the model a decent base. I thought of a geometric design with various shades of wood:

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.
