Lively, 1813, Private Armed Schooner

This model is based on model plans that I got from the late Jim Roberts when he started North River Scale Models and which are now part of the kit sold by The Lumberyard.

The model is Plank-on-Bulkhead construction with hull planking in Cherry and Holly. Deck planking is Boxwood and deck furniture is cherry.

Everything is from scratch except the cordage and belaying pins.

This is one of the first models where I employed metal casting (cannon and anchors), scratch blocks and deadeyes, fashioning a figure from polymer clay, and making a set of sails using white glue to add tablings, reinforcements, and reef bands, etc.

Model is 1/4" = 1' (1:48) scale.

Do you have a build log for this model. I have the Lumber Yard Kit and that's my next project.

Sorry, I never saw this. I built it years ago – well before MSW or other ship model forums. I hope you'll post your own build log, or maybe you already are!

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.
