Hello, 

my name is Antonio, but you can call me Toni. I am 22 years old, first-time builder, but have been interested in model ship building since I was a small kid. Since my father made a "model" of a tanker ship when I was just 7 years old, watching him made me want to make my own model and develop my own skills, but sadly, I never really got into it. Now, at 22, I think I'll have a nice "weekend" hobby to play with. I have managed to acquire some blueprints from a local shipyard here in Croatia (yes, I am from the far country of Croatia!), which in my model ship building club is considered "a miracle", mainly because privatized shipyards don't want to give out the plans for ship just like "that"...but anyhow, I am planning to make a R/C model of one small ship from 1958, made in Yugoslavia, of course. I have made the proper preparations so far and I looking forward to making that model. Excuse my English if it isn't perfect! 

 

P.S. If you're wandering about my username / nick, it's one of my favorite marine engines in existence - the Deutz RVBM 545! :)

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.
