    Nice work, This shape looks familiar to me Didn't the Mary Rose originally have a round transom in 1511. And only after the conversion a flat one?

    Masts and yards. During the last vacation, the possible dimensions were drawn up. (All this is largely guesswork). A few months ago, wood was sawn. pine wood with thin grain. Age?? But the tree was sawn at least 25 years ago. Nice weather to work outside, So the "lathe" was set up. Own construction, not a pretty thing. But it works. All masts parts are"semi" ready. Together with the main yard.

    If you want to keep the entire sail I would go for this option. My non-binding idea

    Nice. Looks much better than the Matchbox kit from a long time ago. I don't know an immediate answer to your question, it's going to take some searching. Scale 1/1, fore sale 😇 https://tracksandtrade.com/nl/kavel/1944-comet-a34-mk1-model-a-celerity

    Preparation of the cannon deck. Since there is no grating in the deck above, there is little or no visible interior of this deck. The intention is to make the carriages of the cannons as simple as possible. And only add the (half) cannon barrels later. The first attempt failed, fortunately no photos. The second attempt was with wooden blocks. Reasonably good, but too visible when the sunlight shines on them. The third attempt has now reduced the size of these blocks and painted them completely black. This will be the method used for the bronze cannons. Wit wooden block adjusted wooden block an final methode

    Maybe this will work. print the flags on regular paper first apply glue (pritt) around the area of the printed flags. and certainly up to the edge of your tissue paper. let it dry well. print. and cross your fingers 😉 I did mine on the (expensive) laser printer at work. After retiring, this is the only thing I miss now...

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.
