    Creating gallery windows, it is so small and hard to handle, i still think to make windows frames white color to make it more visible, i am still not sure. Few work moments.

    Hello, this is my galleon ship construction. It is my second ship build. I will share photos of the build, hope you will like. Friesland The highly ornate Friesland dates from about 1663, when she was launched as part of the fleet of the "Seven Provinces" of the Netherlands. As part of the allied Aglo-French fleet, she took part in the Battle of Solobay in 1672. Mamoli's double plank-on-bulkhead kit, based on reliable Dutch documentation, features 80 turned brass cannon and over 50 gilded metal ornaments. The model is a magnificent replica, complete with authentic deck detail. Cast zinc frames ensure proper squaring and alignment of gun ports, while remaining hidden from view. Silk-screened flags and cotton rigging line reflect the rig plan of the original. Thirteen sheets of plans and step-by-step instructions allow you to build an extraordinary showpiece. Advanced Level Mamoli Kit No. MV24 Length 31"/Height 28"/Scale 1:75 Few photos of the box and inside the box.

    Your windows looking like real, very fine detailing, did you use Micro Krystal Klear? I hope to learn making windows too in the future. Keep good working!

    Thank you Vince, Max, Dan Vad, for reply, i will use these good ideas in the future. I just got big ship building board to keep the ship in place and used metal frames from sides to keep it still. This will work for now.

    Thank you for the answers Mark and Jim.I want to place long ship in the holder, i know it is very important step of the ship building. I just made some holder, but it is hard to think where to place bolts to hold the ship and later remove them easy, with no harm to the ship frame. Here it is what i have made already. Any ideas are welcome. thank you!

    Hello, i was searching info on ship holder while glue all bulks and start the kit. I have seen some people use some wood and place bulks in there to keep it stiil and then glue. Is this the best thing to use? I have seen some rotating holders, are they necessary? Please tell your opinion.

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.
