    I have remodel the hatch to the cabin. I think it is matching better with the ship then the White one and this one can be closed.

    In case anyone would be interested in seeing some photos from the start of the build I have managed (with admin of the web) to restore the thread Back from 2006 till now. IT is available here: http://www.mo-na-ko.net/php/portal/viewtopic.php?id=713 On the First and second Page There is still some problem with loading photos but from third Page it works OK.

    Hi, I'm reposting my build from 2009. Unfortunately my thread was lost and I do not have photos from the build anymore. I plan to continue on this project. Here are some photos with current status. The wood used is beech and it will be only wood use on this, no colors only matt varnish. So far I have build all the frames and plank half outside of the hull. I do have also some inner planks in place.

    Now question...... Leave it in wood colour or paint it Black with gold ornament?

    Rails are done. They are not glued to the hull yet. Once attached and sanded all should be smooth.... I hope🤔 I was really afraid of this task but I have to admit that it was not that bad. I think the result looks good...... At least I am happy with it🤣 And now to one week off.......

    Hi AVBiker, Your RC looks great! My rails are not according to the plans as hull and stem from Panart has different shape. I did not want to use the brass wire So I'm trying to create rails from wood. The shape is done to fit the model. PetaV
  14. Peta_V
    Both sides
  15. Peta_V
    Workings on the middle Rail.
  16. Peta_V
    First step is finished. Main rails shaped in place
  17. Peta_V
    After final shaping it sits pretty good I would say. Far beyond my expectation! 😲

    I take all my courage and started with my bigest chalenge. I don't like the way Panart did the headrails. They use only shaped brass wire. I want to make them from wood. I started with shaping the main rails. I believe I'm very close to the "OK" fit but still some work to be done. First paper stencil: Wooden rails and planty of re-shaping Fore mast crowsfeet also in place
  19. Peta_V
    Today I played with crowsfeet. I think it turned out pretty good. Happy with the result 😎

    Finaly I have triple masted vessel! 🤑
  21. Peta_V
    Starting with mizzen mast
  22. Peta_V

  23. Peta_V
    That is fantastic stuff. Thank you very much. His videos are top and in EN...... UNBEATABLE.
  24. Peta_V
    Main mast finished. Mizzen next!

    Hi Antony, thanks for your comment. Lego bricks comes from one very old set from my childhood. I have many Lego sets and still like to build something time to time. Those few bricks will not be even recognized in the quantity I have

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.
