    Planking of the quarter deck. There seem to have been different methods during this period. Fully planked or with a grating of beams in the middle. The grating appears to have come into use later. Mostly on ships that sailed to the tropical seas. Possible to cool the area under this deck. Or to give the helmsman a better view of the sails. Who knows? This model gets the full planking. With 3 openings : For the block of the main sail. For the ladder between main and quarter deck. For the removable cover for the helmsman. Planking of this deck is done in the same way as the main deck. Planking on the stern area is also "weird". 4 planks are not in the length but in the width. Reason: If you look at the opposite side, here are the same planks also placed in the width. Correct or not ?? I don't know, but it is logically acceptable. These 4 planks are in the width at the bottom Thanks for following

    Nice work on this model Steven. Better slow but steady, then fast but wrong. That is also my way of thinking about this hobby.

    Nice "car" . Looks like something from the CVR (T) family. Was this specially designed to give driving lessons. Or is this a Sultan command vehicle?

    The first time i see a kettenkrad and a kubel on scale 1/350. Great build on the Graf zeppelin, and the planes. And everything else of course.

    My idea The cable goes through hawse hole n° 33, is attached to n° 40 and is stored in the cable tier n° 25 (And certainly not use a chain) Photo and info from the book "Galleon The great ships of the armada era" by Peter Kirsch. And on my 16th century English Galleon Golden Hind. The 2 cables of the anchors will "disappear" in the 2 holes in the hatch.

    I guess that it is something you don't have to do every year 😁. Actually, it was 20 years ago and painting became urgent Made some progress and started with the deck. The finish between the deck and the frames is just the same as the deck below. First a plank is made that is glued to the frames. Supports are glued to the rear of this plank. The plank is glued and then the first 2 deck planks. The holes between the frames are closed with small planks. These are first all made separately (and numbered) and then painted before assembly. And the alignment of the "nails" in the deck planks is indeed not in line with the alignment of the deck beams. But once the deck is completely planked, this error is no longer visible.

    Great work on the dry dock (and the cross section of course). The navy sail training ship, was this the Zenobe gramme??

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.
