Hi! I've been browsing here for a while, learned a lot, and have completed the  Lowell Grand Banks Dory - Model Shipways 1:24 model. I figured it was time I joined!

 

I've just started the Norwegian Sailing Pram - Model Shipways, 1:12 model, and am thinking about starting a build log. But I see there are a lot of build logs for that particular model already.

Remember, your build log may help another. No matter how many logs there are of a given model the techniques used to build them will differ. And passing on this information is the idea behind this site.

Current build: Hemingway's Pilar

Previous build: NRG Half Hull

Previous build: MS Bluenose

Welcome aboard, Dan.  I assume that is Chapel Hill, North Carolina?  Nice part of the country, I lived in Raleigh for about 8 years, many moons ago.

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.
