The forecourse is bent to the yard and ready to install: I took the parrel brackets off the plans from the Revenge. Speaking of which, look for a finishing run on the Revenge after I complete this model. I forgot how much I enjoyed working on it and remembered going back through the plans. Lastly, the parrels:

Looking forward to this one! As a quick note, the CAD renders included as reference drawings/plans for my Oryol, also a Ukrainian kit, had the same issue with being so dark that they were difficult to use, probably from the same issue. I thoroughly enjoy their kits though. They are very nice and build up beautifully!

It’s a Type 1934a Destroyer. I ran a quick search for a model kit of a Type 1934a Destroyer on Google and several kits turned up. You should be able to alter the markings to match the Z13.

The sprit sail is on and with it, the running rigging commences! Needless to say, the sprit sail has several more rigging lines to be installed. This is only my second ever square/ship rigged ship. The first was Mamoli’s 1/100 Endeavour which had greatly simplified rigging and no sails. That one, built a decade ago, took me something like 3 months to rig. It was an 18 month build overall. Hopefully, I do better this time. I spent about four hours today studying the rigging plan to make sure I understood it.

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.
