    It’s actually a bit of an illusion in the photo, I haven’t trimmed down the top plank yet, so once I do the bowsprit should drop down into place. Good eye though, feel free to point out anything else that looks off!

    Here’s where I ended up with it. Just used leftover rail that was already profiled and painted. Not exactly what they are supposed to look like, but close enough.

    Thanks for the heads up Peter! I'll check the stairs that came in my kit. I'm also running into the issue where the cap rails on the bow don't even come close to fitting. I saw on your build log you had the same problem and had to make them from scratch...guess I will be doing the same.

    All the work just to cover most of it up.... I also cut off the top of the frames prior to putting the deck on, seems like a much easier way to do it.
  28. jks1981
    10 cannons and 1 bulleit....
  29. jks1981 started following HMS Endeavour Bark 1768 by S.Coleman - Artesania Latina - 1:60 scale, HMS Winchelsea 1764 by Matt D 1:48 and L'Hermione by Spike1947 - Artesania Latina - Scale 1:89 - First wooden ship build

    The first cannons go on

    Was on the fence about buying the AL micro shapers, decided to go for it.
  32. jks1981
    Thanks Scott - Cutting out and trimming the gun ports has definitely been the toughest part so far!

    Gunport framing done
  34. jks1981
    Hi Scott. Thanks for the comments, I'm still plugging away at the gun port framing... Are you planning on starting the Hermione soon? Keep me posted if you start a build log, would love to follow it. This site is so helpful. James

    Wasn’t happy with the blue I had chosen so decided to re-do that part using the colour suggestion from another thread here on MSW.

    Framing in the gun ports. 3 down, 27 to go...

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.
