    Hull is closed! Just a snapshot before sanding Started 16 april so I did it in 14 weeks 🫠, not the fastest but enjoyed it, and glad it's done. Last few weeks it's nice weather here in Holland and there are quite a few chores in the garden and the house, so that takes hobby time . Curious to see what it will look like once it is sanded. Sad thing always is...you get really good at something when you nearly finished lol...at least that's true for me 🥲 Oh yeah...side note, after such a long phase it was really satisfying to clean up the craft room, workbench etc.

    Are you not worried about dust on your finished Indy, doing your construction work nearby?

    It's a fantastic result...so much to learn from your build log and indeed really impressive for a first build!
  9. Ronald-V
    So beautiful!
  10. Ronald-V
    That was something what I thought also simulate by cutting fine lines, and sounds easy. For the rest...nice build!

    Thanks! You are very thorough in your research.

    Love the lines of this ship! 💫 Always loved the Dutch designed ships ❤️ Why is it called "Hooker ship"? 😛
  14. Ronald-V
    Amazing! Congratulations with your succes...and seeing your ropes getting used in different builds here on the forum, that's some great advertising

    It's quite interesting to see how this process takes place....thanks for sharing this

    Fantastic model and indeed great display room! Congratulations! 💫

    Larger then I expected seeing your hand in comparison (can't read imperial system🫠) but nice job! Love these open construction little boats.
  18. Ronald-V
    No rest, straight to the next one! Nice! Good luck with another beautiful kit
  19. Ronald-V
    That's a great save! Looks spot on

    1mm is not that bad indeed...like you said, split the difference and in the end result you won't notice anything different.
  21. Ronald-V
    Those wales look beautiful! And your hull looks super smooth! 🤩 For the sand through spots...maybe some sanding dust with diluted PVA to fill it up? Or mixing some paints to match the color of your pear and cover the underlying wood with it (would test both methods first on scrap pieces). Or like you said...if it don't bothers you, then it's okay ofcourse
  22. Ronald-V
    Thanks for all your kind compliments and likes! 💫

    Update: Starboard side closed! Just 7 strakes left on port side
  24. Ronald-V
    That looks like a beautiful way of displaying her! Curious about the final photo's!

    Congratulations with finishing this monumental task! Well done!

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.
