This is going to be interesting! Will you paint the ship, or leave the bamboo showing?

Thanks for the compliments everybody! I really enjoy reading them. Mike, your farther than me! You've got your bulwarks done, and we both have planking to come. I'm going to go on a vacation for over a week on Thursday, but I may be able to finish my styrene templates before hand. I can also buy some wood filler today, so everything will be ready for hull shaping when I get back. If I finish my styrene templates Today I'll show some pictures. Happy modeling everyone! Until next time.

Nice Sal! Using wire for the foot ropes is avoid idea. You just have to reduce shine.

Welcome back John! The deck is looking good. That is a good idea, glueing the plank to one side!

Hello folks! I finished lining off the hull, at least if that is vertical lines. I found a problem with the building board, but that has been solved. It just means the starboard station lines are off by a little bit. I also got a lot of styrene boarding. There are 5 boards of decent size. I glued the paper hull templates to a board with some elders school glue. I started cutting these templates out. I will give them a proper trim when I am done cutting them all. Until next time!

Looks good! The lowest one that attaches to the hull appears not to be fully attached. Was this a dry fit? Again, nice painting!

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.
