    Hi guys, Long time no see. My professional time was to demanding, so I have been for a long time away. Still I found from time to time some spare hours to keep the shipyard of RC open. So here are the results, could have been better, but still I am happy with my self, am not a 1st class ship modelist but I feel (after 7 model ships) I came a long way through (considering where I started some years ago) and thats a nice feeling all the best to all of you Christos

    @DelF Thank you very much, very kind of you to answer to my post. Yes it seems black it is. It seems historicaly correct, but as you said the aesthetic has its value as well. About the shape... yes your answer pleases me,thats what I meant. The center is not round its octagonal and the drws of Bellabarba's book seem to be accurate. About the Mizzen top gallant that you mentioned, I have just realised that is not included by the kit. I dont know why. Do you have any thoghts on that? Never the less I think you did right to rig it anyway. Happy new year Christos

    Shrouds continue and am making my thoughts/investigations about the yards. Dontknow if they were black or pure. Do know though how they were shaped from Bellabarba's book.

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.
