    Other pics of my twelve pounder cannons

    @ Dubz Another detail: the smooth crown of the stern was never sculpted to facilitate the evacuation of water splashes, and preferably tarred to protect the wood from cracking caused by the sun
  3. CRI-CRI
    One detail: textured smooth nails are never nailed with exposed heads Nails are poisonous for modellers health 🤢 Under 1/30 scale : strengstens verboten !
  4. CRI-CRI
    The gun's natural wooden carriers with brass twelve pounder cannons The underwater hull is quite visible, without any préparation...
  5. CRI-CRI
    I found small capsquares for the twelve pounder guns
  6. CRI-CRI
    Next job : guns, twenty two, one made...
  7. CRI-CRI
    All knees were added over headquarter
  8. CRI-CRI
    Commander's speakeasy is installed 😋
  9. CRI-CRI
    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... 😋

    Beetween the stern and the first bulkhead
  11. CRI-CRI
    Today works completing rear half gun deck
  12. CRI-CRI
    This afternoon, I've prepared to morrow works and stored garlands for next Christmas 😛
  13. CRI-CRI
    I never said "never", I shall see later this question... 😉 It's the problem of this kit : poor quality of some accessories... 🤔
  14. CRI-CRI
    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... 😣
  15. CRI-CRI
    Complete great garland simulation (brass pieces not painted) :
  16. CRI-CRI
    My solution, using a wood filler hidden behind the great garlands Therefore, these garlands can be glued nearer quarter gallery than the kit solution
  17. CRI-CRI
    Rectification over garlands : the kit provides 24 garlands for 14 places, allowing the extension of those that are too short
  18. CRI-CRI
    Two other pics with light of sun...
  19. CRI-CRI
    Stern windows done, and preparing paint of decorative drops and fourteen garlands
  20. CRI-CRI
    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 ! 😊)
  21. CRI-CRI
    Other side
  22. CRI-CRI
    Today works (frames not glued)
  23. CRI-CRI
    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 ?
  24. CRI-CRI
    I dont understand use of the two parts named : "Spiling guide", and "Back place" (they are near laser cut longboat parts) Some ideas ?
  25. CRI-CRI
    Seven parts for upper convenience's kersey...

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.
