    The Mursia book is in Italian. And I see Zoran from MarisStella has it in his library as well.

    Found another one that should help: Luciano Keber - Traditional boats of the Croatian Adriatic, ISBN 953-6568-10-1.

    http://leut2.leut-krk.hr/leut2wordpress/ This page should prove inspiring. The guy is an expert. MarisStella's kits are indeed very well thought-out. I'm going to continue building their Pelig model this summer. Oh, additional information can be found in Mario Marzari's book Trabaccoli e Pielghi by Mursia. Try Mursia.com. Great build, read through your log this afternoon. Regards, Rafael.

    Wonderful, Elmir. Will study your build log when I have the time. Thanks for sharing!

    Ya, you fix the parts in position with Play-Doh (or a similar compound) and then apply glue.

    Kevin, you might consider getting a Hold and Fold (thesmallshop.com) or an Etch Mate (misiionmodels.com) bending tools. Also, I suggest you spray paint the etchings BEFORE folding as it is far easier to touch-up paint after folding than it is to paint these tiny etchings when already formed. Keeping the folded etchings in position could be achieved by using a moldable material like Play-Doh molding compounds, then applying CA and removing Play-Doh. It worked for me. Just suggesting. Am following with great interest. All the best, Rafael.

    Wonderful work. It was good to see a weathered model, seems a rare oportunity in MS building. But weathering everything, including the crew really works, doesn't it. Gives it charm and warmth. Love it!

    Hi, Danny, what is it you're using to blacken brass?

    I wanted to build Thermopylae, but then... You're doing a very good job with it. Will follow your log.

    Just dropped by to see the development. And then my jaw dropped to the floor. Darn! What a fountain of knowledge and craftsmanship you are.

    Oops. So, hi Dan. ust a quick question. Is there any chance of having the old format back? This one seems rather useless for what getting tips from others are concerned. Or maybe I just can't use it properly. I just placed an order for Krick's Gulnara and will be in need of advice. Have a good day. Rafael.

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.
