    Verry good planking Steven. If anyone comments on this. Just say. This way of planking is historically much more correct and it was very difficult to do

    Hello, First, i wish everyone a happy and above all healthy 2021. All masts and bowsprit are now mounted (work in progress) Made some useful tools from large needles They came in handy for this job. Next time I rig these blocks before installing the deck. The bowsprit mounting is extra reinforced with a nail Then "camouflaging" this nail so that it is no longer visible Ready Thanks for following,comments and likes.

    After the top plate was applied, cleaning and sanding of the hull started (with a too sharp knife 👍👎) The mudguards are cleaned up, extended and glued The upper part of the hull is adjusted and the engine exhausts extended. And i have a full bag with new clamps. Extra detailing on the hull. A previously built Mk.3 serves as example. I will see you all back in 2021

    My idea (without obligation of course) The original model will likely have been painted white below the waterline. There are archaeological findings that confirm that ships from about that time have a layer of "white stuff" below the waterline. The replica is a different story. It looks like the hull below the waterline has been treated with a modern protective layer (I don't know much about modern iron ships, but these days they also have this color below the waterline. Just above the waterline, the replica is white. Once launched it looks like the hull has been correctly painted and the underwater part is well protected with modern paint. The original mayflower I was white below the waterline when she was built https://mayflowereventnews.com/1957-the-reception/ https://mayflowereventnews.com/1957-television-news/ The first voyage

    Another very nice update. For you also a Merry Christmass and a happy new year

    Thanks, Airfix sells / sold this kit as a Mk.8. This is certainly not a Mk.8, but a Mk.3 or 5. Extending the hull was successful. Reinforcements have been added inside, so later on there is only some cleaning here and there. The chance that this model ends up in the waste bin has become very small Discovered something, this build cannot go wrong The kit was "born" in 1964 (and that was a very good year ) Thanks for following, and a merry Christmass and happy new year

    I agree with Kirill. Mixed colors below the waterline are very unusual Ps, very nice paintwork

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.
