New member, but unfortunately still working and therefore little time to devote to my passion for all things related to sailing, in particular old wooden boats & ships.  Lots of modelling experience long ago in the form of plastic kits (aeroplanes, fighting vehicles and ships), followed by radio controlled aircraft from both kits and plans.  Happened upon a decent modelling shop in Norfolk (UK) and couldn't resist, purchasing the generic cutter 'Lady Jane' as my initial foray into this wonderful hobby.

Welcome to MSW Gary,

Know how you feel. I still work so am a weekend modeler. I will be lucky enough to retire on November 6th this year.

You have come to the right place to share your hobby with others.

Once you have started your kit you might consider starting a build log. Looking forward to that if you do.

Paul

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.
