  1. Chris.
    The gun's natural wooden carriers with brass twelve pounder cannons The underwater hull is quite visible, without any préparation...
  2. Chris.
    I found small capsquares for the twelve pounder guns
  3. Chris.
    Next job : guns, twenty two, one made...
  4. Chris.
    All knees were added over headquarter
  5. Chris.
    Commander's speakeasy is installed 😋
  6. Chris.
    No checker-board : the real one would be painted, without any interest, and not with wooden little squares, which never existed : the future Republic of United States had less money than United Kingdom... 😋
  7. Chris.
    Beetween the stern and the first bulkhead
  8. Chris.
    Today works completing rear half gun deck
  9. Chris.
    This afternoon, I've prepared to morrow works and stored garlands for next Christmas 😛
  10. Chris.
    I never said "never", I shall see later this question... 😉 It's the problem of this kit : poor quality of some accessories... 🤔
  11. Chris.
    Finaly, I decided to let provisory the model without the great garland and other back molded figures I don't like very much these too simplified accessories... 😣
  12. Chris.
    Complete great garland simulation (brass pieces not painted) :
  13. Chris.
    My solution, using a wood filler hidden behind the great garlands Therefore, these garlands can be glued nearer quarter gallery than the kit solution
  14. Chris.
    Rectification over garlands : the kit provides 24 garlands for 14 places, allowing the extension of those that are too short
  15. Chris.
    Two other pics with light of sun...
  16. Chris.
    Stern windows done, and preparing paint of decorative drops and fourteen garlands
  17. Chris.
    Thanks, dear modeller friends ! Before the break, a short visit of the glazier, improving the windows... (more difficult is to show it in photo... They are too transparent ! 😊)
  18. Chris.
    Other side
  19. Chris.
    Today works (frames not glued)
  20. Chris.
    Other question : There are two complete sets of pieces for making the seven rear frames of the great cabin: is this a simple precaution, or should two be used for each window with acetate placed between them ?
  21. Chris.
    I dont understand use of the two parts named : "Spiling guide", and "Back place" (they are near laser cut longboat parts) Some ideas ?
  22. Chris.
    Seven parts for upper convenience's kersey...
  23. Chris.
    Today works
  24. Chris.
    Yes, it is, and the wall were removable to make easy the gun manipulation (time of war) With the wall installed, cannons were removed (time of peace...) I am peace lover 😊
  25. Chris.
    I think it would be better adding a separation door between Officer conveniences and the quarter head Great cabin

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.
