This is my first build and I have pretty much got the hang of things so far with the decent instructions I’m a couple weeks in and am waiting on some paint and stain to arrive before I move on. More painting and than rigging and making the sails.
It’s been some learning by reading and some guessing I am excited to get this one finished and start my next build.

I’ve been avoiding doing the sails long enough and got the main done today and should be able to finish up tomorrow leaving only a different stand than what the kit came with. So for my first time doing sails it could be a lot cleaner and I may remake them eventually but I’m liking it and looking forward to start my next project. I did take a break and build their dory kit but didn’t take pictures along the way

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.
