Yes, I did it myself. First I made a 3D model, then CNC milling and final manual processing.

At this point I interrupted work, because I received an order to build a model of Flemish galleon. Then I came back periodically to build of model but did not take a photo. A little bit about some detail .Decorative elements to the stern.

A bit on the prototype and model. In reality, such a ship was not built ever. This is one of concepts that developed F.Chapman on request the Swedish Government in 1765. He was given task to create an inexpensive heavy frigate, which would battle with the ship line, if necessary. Frigate had to meet the following specifications: Dimensions Length 145' 6'' (imperial) Breadth 38' Draught Aft 17' Height of middle gunport above the water 6' 4'' L/B ratio 3.83 Armament 26*18-pounders, 12*6-pounders At least a decade ahead of it?s time when Chapman made the plans for this ship (the first french and british 18-pounder frigates were launched in the late 1770s). The guns are mounted on sliding carriages to reduce the number of men needed to operate them. In future, based on this concept F.Chapman built a series of heavy frigates type Bellona The model is built on the scale of 1/48 . Style of model should simulate naturally aged model of 18th century

Next, I need to remove fragments of technological frames. I took a short video that showcases simplicity of this process http://sailmodel.ho.ua/present/09098288.MP4.mp4

Then I begin to create base hull. Pine strips are glued to frames using a stapler. Total of two layers. First layer must be dried at least one day. After drying, staples are removed and surface is processing with plane .

Then I get shape of "thick" frames from 3D for the manufacture base hull. A detailed description of my technology manufacturing basic ship hulls can be seen here http://sailmodel.ho.ua/present/pres_e.htm

I use extensively in their work 3d-modeling and CNC, so I started by creating a 3D model of frigate. Using this model I check all structural elements and can get shape of frames and other parts

Hello everybody ! My favorite theme in modeling is Swedish shipbuilder F.Chapman and his ships. Previously, I have built a model of the Swedish privateer on Chapman's drawings from album «Architectura navalis mercatoria» (can see in the Gallery http://modelshipworld.com/index.php/gallery/album/208-swedish-privateer/) In 2011 I started to build another model of this album - a frigate (sheet XXXIII). This project was repeatedly interrupted, but I went back to building of model. I will show gradually all steps of building model. Baseline - Chapman's drawing. Analysis design of frigate has shown that this is an earlier and smaller version of the well-known series such as frigates Bellona (1782). Swedish Maritime Museum have excellent model Bellona 1/16. Photos of this model give additional information about the hull detailing and rigging.

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.
