Roter Löwe 1597 by Ondras71
Baker replied to Ondras71's topic in - Build logs for subjects built 1501 - 1750
Ondras, interesting info is on these 2 pdf files. And there is a detailed drawing of a carriage with 3 wheels. https://www.academia.edu/20120786/The_Arming_of_Late_16th_century_Merchantmen._A_Masters_Thesis_from_the_Maritime_Archaeology_Programme_University_of_Southern_Denmark http://nautarch.tamu.edu/Theses/pdf-files/Hoskins-MA2004.pdf "Risse von Schiffen des 16./17. Jahrhunderts" is a very interesting book. But do not ask for detailed plans about ships from the 16th century. They simply do not exist. Dont do you are building a beautiful model -

Hello from the king's Louis XIV city (France)
Baker replied to empathry's topic in New member Introductions
Greetings from your northern neighbor And welcome to MSW -
Thank you everyone for the nice comments. (Carl, I'm not a fan of football. I also like peace and quiet). I have added some bolts in the upper wales. Bolts that remain visible on the inside are also fitted. So that it looks that these bolts run through the frame and the wale. And i have become the proud owner of some interesting books. First I will read and study before I continue to build

Beautifully painted. I use CA glue for PE parts. This is indeed difficult, to glue everything neatly in the right place.

Indeed I'm not really that good with electricity so I bought a ready-made set. The disadvantage is that all lights are at the same distance from each other. That is why it is sometimes a puzzle to get the lights in the right place. cannon deck below Welcome on board Pieter

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.
