    Can I please take up some of this space and users time to showcase a guy who is like our own - commited to model building, he has created a Superb range of Display cases that are basically - made to measure. Give this chaps site a look over - he is based in the UK so I can not vouch for his distribution over seas (you would have to check with him). Anyway here is his info - https://acorndisplays.co.uk/ OC.

    It has a Image stabilizer on the lens with Two settings - One is a basic version for static objects and the other one is called Sport Mode, thats designed for moving subjects, both give about 4 stops of stabilizing, but I use high enough shutter speeds with things like that - normaly over 1/1000sec generaly higher, no need for a monopod or tripod also its all about mustle memory like firing a rifle. OC.
  22. Old Collingwood

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.
