    Thank you Tony The first part of the railing is finished, the system of sliding the hollow posts on the pins works.. Reinforced with long pins.. Further work, installation of the top mirror plate..

    I work on the bent parts of the stern railing..
  4. Ondras71
    Thanks for the like. On a vertical drill, I drilled holes for the support bars of the railing posts. These guarantee the exact shape.. And he completed all the wales at the stern..

    Thank you very much Hubacs Historian. I continue with the railing of the aft deck .. The edges of the painted strips are fragile, I will have to retouch in one place.. Rounded railing parts .. I tried the wax with which I will paint the moldings of Wales, if it does not destroy the paint with the varnish and it's great..

    I appreciate your words Backer and Louie da fly Thus covered the railings of the main deck and stretched from it wales. Railings and rails glued with long pins..

    Czech modeler Doris Obručová advised me to use an external matt spray topcoat. I tried matt Vallejo varnish .. Tests outside the ship have shown the best way to pour a horizontal layer of paint ... Bingo Then dry with a hair dryer and .. the surface is matte! Ship finally unpacked .. I will not edit any more..💥 O.

    The dyeing is already finished after two months, the retouches have stretched a bit. Red sprayed somewhere again. I damaged the acrylic paint with alcohol .. Spraying with matt clear lacquer is also not without problems, semi-gloss paints do not want to matte. I'm studying how to do it..
  11. Ondras71
    I'm fighting green. The first did not cover at all .. I had to use the darker one. At the same time, the front wall was redesigned.. The result is not so bad.. Retouches are still waiting for me and matte lacquer comes on top..🧐 O.
  12. Ondras71
    Blue done, only a few retouches .. I choose the green color .. Ready for green color..
  13. Ondras71
    Thank you Landrotten Highlander. I have already ordered a lighter green, after the adjustment the sides would not be the same. Ondras Hips ready for blue ..
  14. Ondras71
    I went green. When choosing colors, I tried to catch the shades of Vasa colors.. But the green is too dark after spraying.. I will have to order a light..😲
  15. Ondras71
    Thank you very much Backer!! I'm starting with the diamonds on the front wall, I want to find out what they will look like .. Preparing for the green ..
  16. Ondras71
    Thanks for the like.. Two days spraying colored strips..💣💥 Unmasked, a few places to repair, but satisfaction.. Now I have the most demanding belt with blue and green cubes waiting for me.. O.

    Greetings. I'm just starting an airbrush for a wooden model, I've studied model fibers, especially for plastic models, there's a lot of information. The finding is that it suits everyone and everyone recommends something different, it is important to buy and try and try until you get used to it. After a few experiments with acrylic paints, I am satisfied with the result, the brush never again .. Good luck!! Ondras
  18. Ondras71
    I'm starting to masking .. ..🧐
  19. Ondras71
    I have already finished the white one, a lot of layers were needed for the dark wood. But the result is beyond my expectations..💥 Another question, on the German plan from the book "Risse von Schiffen des 16./17. Jahrhunderts " and on my Czech adaptation, is a different shape of geometric shapes. But the Czech one has a simpler square one, so I'll probably use it..😇
  20. Ondras71
    Thank you very much and I really appreciate your words friends.. Knee of the head hips reinforced against twisting.. Made a spray box 1 meter wide from a paper box and discarded kitchen hoods .. After training outside the boat, I start spraying ..💣
  21. Ondras71
    Thank you very much Boxbuilds and Louie!! I continue to produce parts that will be painted.. And I'm already training dry with an airbrush..
  22. Ondras71
    Greetings. I like to see a building from my period here .. Aren't you planning a keel, sternpost and Rudder made of wood? Ondras
  23. Ondras71
    Thank you very much Boxbuilds!! Thanks to new information on the construction of Dutch ships, the Knee of the head was repaired.. and Beams shaped..
  24. Ondras71
    Thanks for the like.. Due to the need for dyeing and the need to create all the parts that will be dyed, I started making Knee of the head. I studied the construction of Knee of the head, it is nicely covered in the Czech thread by Doris Obručová for its construction Sovereign of the Seas .. https://www.modelforum.cz/viewtopic.php?f=177&t=43575&p=882705&hilit=klounová+paluba#p882705 A study of Dutch ships, I found that the grate of the deck drawn from the folded slats is from a later time, historically more faithful is the grate of longitudinal planks, as in the plan of the Pinas Vitsen by Ab Hoving. Production of Knee of the head.. Delivered paints and accessories to the airbrush..
  25. Ondras71
    Surrounded and waxed. The pins finally hold the wax-glued parts firmly.. I'm starting to make railings .. Waxed gratings of the main deck ..

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.
