    A small digression ... I have sharpened the axis of the propeller using the Proxxon-drill. The small piece of the blank was in the patron and I decided to digress a bit ... I have tried to carve a pawn, and then tour
  2. IgorSky
    Then I decided to make the propeller. I'm not sure that it will be clearly visible under the water, but let it be ...

    I forgot that I still have not done rudder ... I have glued the "sandwich" from hornbeam strips of different colors. Then I made the rudder with a scalpel, needle files and sandpaper.

    Then I poured the first layer of "water" in the "sea"

    Hi everyone! During the last weekend I was continuing to work with this project. First I made the shrouds for the fock-mast.
  6. IgorSky
    Bravo, Nils! Fantastic job!

    Ladder to the navigation bridge... I was forced to make a new ladder
  8. IgorSky
    Shrouds ... I decided to use some photo-etched parts for making of the shrouds.

    Thank you, Nenad!

    During the study of the drawings of the ship, I realized that the boom of the front mast was also used as the cargo boom. So I made a hook.

    I prepared the bottle and measured the volume of the sea. I will fill the sea in the bottle to two parts and I need to know exactly the volume of each part.
  12. IgorSky
    Then I connected all made parts of the model together to check everything once again.
  13. IgorSky
    The next step - I made the front sail.

    Hi everyone! So I made the second anchor, and then I took another anchor, and I have painted them both.
  15. IgorSky
    Yes, Karl! It was lying on the table in front of me. I blinked and it was gone Yes, I made them smaller than they were in the set.
  16. IgorSky
    Then I started to do the second anchor. P.S. My first anchor disappeared during this process.
  17. IgorSky
    Next item is anchor. It was the first attempt to make an anchor using the PE parts. I cut off the excess metal to get the right size. Then I glued parts and processed the anchor using needle file. And I painted him.

    Many thanks, Lawrence, Patrick, David, Michael, Nenad and all whom is interesting this project! Oh, David, of course, from time to time some details disappear right before my eyes. So, I continue. I made another the running light, but with the red color.
  19. IgorSky
    Today's small update - another attempt to make the running lights.
  20. IgorSky
    Many thanks, Michael!

    Many thanks, Lawrence! After a long break, I again continue to work with this project. Yesterday, I decided to use new bottle. Since I need to continue my experiments with the using of silicone for the manufacture of the sea, I think that this shape of the bottle best suits my needs. Best Regards! Igor.
  22. IgorSky
    Oh, Michael! I hope that soon everything will be okay with your leg, and I wish you a speedy recovery! With my best wishes! Igor.
  23. IgorSky
    Many thanks, Mike! Have a nice day and good luck to you!

    Many thanks all who was enjoying this mini-project! Subject of miniaturization long been interested in me. And gradually I am moving in this direction. In the course of this project I had some new ideas that I will check later. However, already a need to find other materials and other tools, other methods. Thank you for your feedback, the words of encouragement and your interest! Best Regards! Igor.
  25. IgorSky
    WOW! Very good idea! Many thanks for sharing, Frank! Best Regards Igor.

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.
