Old Collingwood & Kevin,

 

I appreciate the nice comments on NEW JERSEY - Thanks very much. I will hopefully be back in the "shipyard" once I get a shed converted to a model shop and that is slowly in progress at this time!

Popeye,

My project at hand is actually converting a shed to a model workshop. THEN the shipbuilding will continue!

 

Kevin,

Ditto - got to have a PLACE to build things and right now that's not the case. I'll happen, it's just going to take $/time.

Popeye - Sorry it took so long for me to see this - Thanks for the kind remarks!!!! I had all the Tamiya 1:350 IOWA kits and also 2 of the Life-Life predecessors - which I think was a better kit overall!!! Hope my build log over on MSF helps you out!

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.
