A first layer of paint With a solid base for the figurehead (dry fit) The wall of the rear cabin is painted and placed. And the planking of the upper deck has started.

Thanks Steven These shields are more like panels, only the upper deck of the rear castle should have shields. But it will take a while before I get there. And some may be disappointed, but there is no room for toilet facilities at the front. Little progress. Since I retired a year earlier than planned, I am building faster than the research I had already done. In the meantime, more is happening on the Corel yacht kit model Only extra holes have been made in accordance with the rear castle. And after measuring with the laser, the entire fore castle appeared to be a bit crooked in relation to the hull. This has now been corrected. If I didn't tell anyone, no one would have noticed... 😇

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.
