    A bit more info about what I am selling - PRICES NOW SLASHED The Waterloo dio is a WIP with all the extras to complete it - figures, scenery, trees, fake grass sheet and some styrene pieces, I am asking for £150 including the Perspex display case that I had made for it. The Black Pearl is 1/72 scale and is based around the plastic kit, I have added lots of additions to it including wood decks, dowels inside the masts to strengthen them, wooden spars, ropes for the standing rigging and shrouds and rat lines - there is also a pirate crew in some interesting positions . Its fitted to a wood base and makes an excellent display piece and I am looking for £100. The Wall unit is all glass with two opening glass doors and Five positionable glass shelves and is six feet tall x 1.5 feet wide and just over a foot deep and I am looking for just £25 for it. The kits - M1A2, Sea Harrier, Sea Fire and Hawk and even the 1/700 scale HMS Hood (dio idea to be finished) are all for sale but no idea what prices are ok for them. They would need to be collected from the UK as due to size - delicate nature posting would not be possible, cash also preferable. Message me if you are interested Thank you. OC.

    Evening All, just an update on my Pearl, I have decided to let it go and try to sell it on as its just sitting in the display unit collecting dust. I am also selling the unit its in including all my other models in it. OC.

    To be honest the cash from it would go towards the moving costs. OC.

    Evening all, I have been having a long think about my build, and have decided to see if I can let it go (the whole package - whats been built so far - all my figures and any un made figures) just have no clue how much to ask for it as well established WIP. We have been thinking about trying to move at some point and it would be good to have my models re housed before we move. OC.

    I have never built a model loco in fact I never knew there was any, the only loco construction kit I ever attempted was one of those card kits years ago. OC.

    Fantastic, I built the "Part Works" kit way back I assume it was a different build from this one. OC.

    This reminds me of a diecast bus kit that used to be available years ago, it was made up in a similar way and even had the enamel paints to paint it after - even had opening doors by a metal slide lever. OC.
  16. Old Collingwood
    That is Superb service. OC.
  17. Old Collingwood
    Coming on nicely Phil. OC.

    Looking really nice Bob - The paintwork on the hull is First rate, and you are at the fun stage with the standing rigging - fun times like my Peral build - keep going mate. OC.

    Airfix new molds are very very good - even down to the research the company now does before releasing a kit. OC.
  23. 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.
