Interesting new model ship company
James H replied to Erebus and Terror's topic in Wood ship model kits
It's La Couronne, most definitely. Apart from the obvious shape, this is how he described it to me in email. -

James H replied to Erebus and Terror's topic in Wood ship model kits
I can tell you that I will shortly be receiving all three of their current releases for review here at MSW. I will also undertake an immediate build of one of these....possibly La Couronne, to begin with. -
Moving topic to correct forum. This is for general site questions.

Hi all, Well, this is quite something for me.....the first build log on Model Ship World V2.0. My last work was published on the old version about 12yrs ago. My apologies for being so tardy. Over the last years I've been busy working with plastic models and magazine publication stuff, and whilst I still have some commitments left to fulfil, I thought I'd dust off (quite literally) my 1/80 Caldercraft Mary Rose kit. Thirteen winters and summers haven't warped the old frame and she's still rock solid. I started building this one year before I launched Model Ship World in 2006, along with Chuck Passaro. It's about time I did something. The basic frame is built and the decking is in place under the fo'c'sle and sterncastle decks. It's also under half an inch of dust, so I need to clean this thing up. Glad I bought it when I did. The price is about £100 more nowadays! I don't intend to leave it as plain as shown in the finished model photo. Instead, It'll be full of red, gold and green in the same way that the Anthony Rolls depicted her in the 1540s. Over the next months, my time on this will be very limited, but I'm at least hoping to get the hull planked and sounded outdoors during the summer months. Has anyone else here built this kit?

Yes please! I’d love to try carving, but I really would be terrible at it, so I’ll go with your resin parts.

New Member looking for plans to the Blue Shadow
James H replied to Donald D's topic in New member Introductions
I agree. Mamoli will be able to send you a copy at cost, or maybe electronically. -
What's the size of this one? I quite fancy building this one, maybe to kickstart my wooden workshop again.

A pleasure! -
Hi Piotr, Please let us see some of your work. Love to see it. We can then look at making Triton plans available to you, but these now have a $5 fee payable. Contact us for more info.

When you visit a topic and want to find the last post that you read, well now you can. As from today, recurrent visits to topics that you have previously read, will be punctuated with a separating line which shows the last post that was there on your last visit. So....you just need to read from that point onwards!

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.
