    Here is a small update for today.

    Hi Mike! Thank you for your feedback! Sorry for my late answer - I was on vacation. OK, I will show this process in more detail a little later. Best Regards! Igor.

    Thank you, John! I used the thin cotton cloth - percale.

    Many thanks, Nils!

    Hi Patrick! Thank you for feedback!

    Hi to all! The work is slow, but, nevertheless, it is going A few days ago I was compelled to make building berth. This time the rigging turns out to be more complicated than I did before.

    Many thanks, Carl and Nils! Yes, Karl, unfortunately it is so, but I will to know about these details

    Hi Patrick! Many thanks!

    After that, I tried to set and the other two front sails
  10. IgorSky
    Then I completed the wiring of the running rigging of the first of the front sails
  11. IgorSky
    Then I made a couple backstays

    Hi John! Do I correctly understood that your model will be 30 inches long?
  13. IgorSky
    Thank you, Bob!
  14. IgorSky
    A lot of thanks, Carl!
  15. IgorSky
    Many thanks, Steve!

    Incredible work, Nils! I think that your model can be studied for hours, so that we can see all these details! Congratulations! Best Regards! Igor.

    Then I missed the mainstay through the racks of the lower front sail and tested it on.

    Then I made a couple of belaying pin planks for the stern of the boat and installed them in their places. Then I tried to stretch a loop from the thread between the plank and the board. In the future, I plan to use such loops to guide rigging in hard-to-reach places inside the bottle

    Yes, it is so, Michael! Often it is necessary to seek a compromise between the size of the part, the authentic appearance, strength and the ability to use this part in the design, taking into account the subsequent assembly of the model in the bottle. And sometimes it seems that you have already reached a certain limit .... But then it turns out that a small change in the design or technology of making a part essentially pushes this limit

    Good morning Michael and many thanks for your feedback! Every time I come up with a way to do something new, I'm also not quite sure about the result. So I'm just trying to do it. Sometimes the result justifies expectations, but sometimes I have to look for another solution. But this, of course, is an interesting and fascinating process

    Thank you, Patrick!

    Carl, I buy the needles of different diameters in a medical goods store.
  23. IgorSky
    Then I wound a few skeins of rope with a simple device and hung them around the nagels
  24. IgorSky
    Then I decided to make the fife rail), on which the running ends of the gaff will be fixed. In the original, this is a kind of metal band with nests for nagels, but I decided to make this part easier, because All the same it will not be visible under to the skeins of the ropes.
  25. IgorSky
    Next, I made the hawse-holes for the anchor rope from the pieces of the medical needle and fixed them in place.

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.
