Soleil Royal, 1:70 by Jack.Aubrey

Followers 0

A model of the Soleil Royal, published by De Agostini as a partwork.

Construction began April 18th, 2010 and ended on August 8th, 2014, after 1,550 days. Obviously, in this period I did many other things, not only ship modeling, which explains the long time passed from the beginning and end but I'm rather slow and I can do nothing to be faster.

The model has been heavily customized by me, in practice it came out as a model with totally different colors and woods and also the presentation mode, where, for reasons of space, I sacrificed the masts and yards to be able to build a display case of a reasonable size.

Here follow a good number of images of the model as finished, where for obvious reasons of photographic techniques, I removed the plexiglas cover. However, some photos al the end of this gallery will be presented with the complete display case.

Regards, Jack.Aubrey.

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.
