Swan class 3D model in progress

Fore Topmast Staysail is done... at this point the ropes are criss-crossing each other in a very unrealistic manner. if you spot such rope, please ignore, because unless I do a full simulation of all ropes and sails at the same time (pretty much undoable at this scale), there's no way around it.- 130 replies

hi all. just wanted to post a small update. getting sizes and proportions of staysails at the moment. next is making textures and then puffing them up with the wind, and only then come digital ropes again...- 130 replies

I'm still to this day fascinated how you guys are able to spot such small details! I thought of omitting drainage holes, but now I obviously can't anymore... 🤣- 130 replies

spritsail is done. next up, the jibsail. this time it might take a while, as I have to make those forward/aft sails first. previous sails I've made earlier, just had to tie them...- 130 replies

Druxey, that's also on my to-do list, along with furled sails, so one will be able to mix and match them as-needed. still debating on studding sails, though...- 130 replies

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.
