    You have mail PLANKING scale 1:1 The planks are of sawn oak; their lengths vary between 2m and 6m. The average plank width is 300–460mm; thickness varies between 50 and 70mm. I used this data from an English wreck for the dimensions of the planks.

    My brother-in-law fishes in his spare time. I told him I caught a really big fat fish. But the hole in the ice was too small to pull it up... He didn't believe me. Home now, today or tomorrow i will look fore info and answer on your Questions.

    Indeed, a very intriguing view of the upper part of the fore castle 🤔
  6. Baker
    Most drawings of that era show the fore mast in front of the fore castle

    Very good for a first model. Most important, learn and enjoy building

    If I were to redo mine GH it would be without. because historically more accurate

    Nice Is the scale 1/100 (signature) or 1/300 (titel) ?
  10. Baker
    Nice find on the coins and nice military models in the background. I did a Nato manoeuvre in 1983. Cardboard frames are looking great.
  11. Baker
    Indeed, very beautiful work

    Indeed. For this, solid wood is always better than plywood.

    Large update 😉. The strakes normally follow the lines of the planks and seal the seams between two planks neat indeed 👍 Here indeed there was no clinker planking, but removable shields. Good and nice work

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.
