Thank you all for your comments and likes 😊 Another parts of the decoration added. Just one notice: I wanted to start to make the decoration according to the Mc Cay´s book - but I couldn´t, check it with the engrawing. So I started to make parts based by Payne. I noticed it in several cases the pictures in the book are sometimes a mix of both authors . Jan

I know it very well. But I think you should add more ribs and do more solid hull, at first to sand it to the shape and then put the first layer of the planking from more pieces. The hull would be stronger and it could save you a lot of sanding. Here is the ribbing of the similar ship made by me ( and as you can see I used the corrugated cardboard too ).

Hi friends, I starded making friezes at the upper gunports and very soon I find out I had a problem. Distances between wales are increasing backwards from 7 to 9 - 10 milimeters. Now I don´t know why, I made the hull 12 years ago...but It was not possible to make mold or something like this for serial production ( I needed 100+ pieces), because every piece was original...🙄 .... so I had to draw them and use 3D printing. Then fit each piece to its place... but I think the result is quite good. Jan

Tops of the galleries are almost finished, I just have to make the edges. Nothing special, just take a shape, produce and glue aproximately 300 pcs of covering, paint it and color edges by the tip of finger... I had nice evenings🥰 And maybe you will notice some decorations on the round gunports😉 Jan

Simply excellent. A view of what a complete ship would probably look like today. Thanks Jan

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.
