After a long hiatus, I am back at my bench working on the Occre model Essex.  Life has taken me away from ship modelling for the last few years.  I don't have any pictures yet, but must say so far am impressed with the quality of the Occre kit.  The bulkheads fit together very well with the false keel and there was virtually no alterations that had to be made.  I am taking my time with this model (have a tendency to rush ahead).  Will post some pics later.  Feels good to be back.

I'm assuming that this is the start of a build log, so I moved it for you.

Thanks ccoyle for moving it to the correct area.  I was one of the long time members of the original Model Ship World before it crashed.  It is good to be back again.

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.
