    I don't use pins on my Pelican (see link in signature). But I found this to be a clumsy method. How it must have been correct without these pins? I don't think there is a right answer for that

    thank you for the nice comments and likes. There is still a lot of work to be done. I'm thinking of sanding and painting this part first while the hull is still a bit manageable. Well, I find building the model more difficult then expected 😉 The "holes" in the rear castle will later be covered with shields. But first i need to clean up the hobby room and paint the walls. And then probably first clean out cabinets containing approximately 1450 models...

    Great work. We visited this ship in 2005 (a long way from home )

    With all frames made thinner and the last planks attached to the stern, the rough shape of the hull and rear castle is largely finished. A lot of wood chips.. And the first jar of PVA glue is empty With paint pots visible in the background, time for some freshening up of the hobby room. Current status with a cardboard fore castle

    This time an update without a misstep.. Everything went according to plan The bulwark (frames) of the upper deck : Logically speaking and thinking. This bulwark is constructed with partial planking and shields. In accordance with the waist, where there are also partly shields, why should all frames reach the top? If their only purpose is to hold up a beam with shields hanging from it? Therefore, the height of the majority of frames is only up to the planking. And some go higher, the distance between these frames is approximately in accordance with that of the waist. Saw the frames to height And then narrow them to the 3mm Then a beam is glued above the clinker planking. The connections are only to maintain sufficient strength on the model. A new "frame" is placed And the longest frames are narrowed. and to 3mm. The height is speculative, the shortest frame was the size. Starboard is ready, just a small beam needs to be attached at the top. Some extra planking is done (arrow) Thanks for following, likes and comments.

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.
