    Hello Chuck, Those were great modification; both the reduction in size and moving after the top part. Have you consider moving the bottom part/post a little to keep that diagonal line? Same as the top part but in the opposite direction (forward instead of after). The candle will need to stand by it self to stay center. I think the thicker candle also improved the look. In the drawing of the lantern parts, the top part appears rotated 60 degrees to the rest of the lantern (the arista of the top part does not align with the arista of the lantern. I really like the way it is drawn. Although the way you placed the top is the way it appears in contemporary models with the arista aligned, I will follow your drawing in my build. my 25 cents, G

    Hello JJ, Great job! I think you got those at the correct scale. Would you mind sharing the block and rope sizes you used? G

    Thank you JJ When working with holly any little mistake shows. I am taking my time to do it right. Best, G

    My progress on planking the deck. I am following the plans for placing the joints. Wood is holly. I painted black under the mast partners but also under the comings to increase contrast. Best, G

    Thank you Rusty, I am following closely your post on your work with cherry wood. Looks great. G
  25. Guillermo Eduardo Madico
    In the instructions figures, that piece is added between step1 (3pieces) and step2 (4 pieces). G

    Thank you Vladimir and all for the likes. I finished the captain deck. I followed the method Chuck told us by gluing strips of wood first and cut them again ensuring the the cut is a perfect square. I made a template and glued the strips in a "V" pattern to keep the squares aligned. I use holly and red cedar. Next deck planking. Best, G

    N Thank you JJ, My plan is to use wood for color. Thank you all for the likes. During the Holliday break I completed planking the bulwarks, added the spirketting, clamps, and the panels for te cabin. Before adding the false deck, I finished and placed the ladders. I used cherry for the counter planks, coamings, mast and capstan partners. The base plate for the stove was painted to simulate slate/blue-stone. The stone color was selected to add some of the green color of the freezes in the deck. After painting the bulwark red, I added the margin plank. I used holly and follow the plans for the scarf joins. Next, I will plank the deck with holly. The freezes will be completed after that. Best, G

    Thank you all for the likes, I decided to build inboard to give strength to all structures before completing the moldings and freezes. It will also give me more time to customize the freezes. I am intentionally mix and matching sedar and sherry wood kits from Chuck's chapter wood installments. The deck planks are holly. I build the sherry parts out of the model to ensure they were squared and placed back into the ship (they are not glued yet). Next, I will add the false deck. Best, G

    My drawing inspired by the fontana di trevi. Turquoise blue background 1st color 2nd color 3rd color Adding black Two mirror images of this will go next to the ship name. WINCHELSEA Best, G

    Thank you so much Chuck. I am glad I did justice to your creation. I probably spent 14 hours total over 5 days; steady work, no rush. It was reassuring to know, it has been accomplished before. Thank you again, G

    After a long pause, I decided to build the capstan to get back on the horse. it was a lot of fun. Thank you Chuck for the extra pieces. I gave it a finish with water based wood conditioner. I will go back to the model now that i got some practice. G

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.
