    If it helps. Did my single planking this way ( see link to post 52) And yes my filler blocks are excessive. But this way they served as a first planking. Planking in one layer went pretty smoothly

    Congratulations with this very beautiful model. And very executed winter camouflage 👍

    The fore sail is rigged There is no tack on this sail. Reason: There is no tack visible on the majority of drawings from this period. The sheets are treated with thin CA glue. Not the best method, but that's the easiest way to keep them in the right shape. Rope coils are partially attached Rope coil production Next is the fore topsail

    No But, I do have a non-binding opinion about late 16th, early 17 th century grating (post 406)

    A few "filler blocks" in front and back will give your planking more support during gluing the planks. You don't have to this , but I think it will be easier to work (Billings kits usually only have one layer of planking)

    Indeed, that drawing could be the Revenge My Pelican / Golden Hind started 6 years ago with these 2 drawings from Mathew Baker. Ps My name on this forum no comparison to the real Mathew Baker 😉

    After about 5 weeks an update Because the bathroom renovation caused quite a bit of dust...The Pelican was temporarily stored behind plexiglass. Meanwhile, a batch of new blocks has been made. For the martnets I wanted to use Deadeyes and fiddle blocks. But with 3 ropes per sail side, deadeyes are hopeless and fiddle blocks don't fit well either. So, the deadeyes became heart blocks and the fiddleblocks became shoe blocks (names come in Tudor warship Mary Rose) The martnets from the fore sail are ready. A small metal pin is used to hold them in place. Thanks for comments, likes and following Much appreciated 👍

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.
