More progress on HMS Terror. The false keel is nearing completion. I have revised the way I have been laying the planks to make bending around the stern and bow. Following advice I have revised the planking to make bending the planks. I have also started sanding the planks on the finished section ready for the final planking. -

I realise that, that why I’m going to have to lengthen them. -

Thanks for the pics, the supplied planks were not long enough to reach all the way to the transom so I’m going to cut them back a bit and add extra -

I finally managed to get some bench time with HMS Terror today and got one side of the hull planned with the first planking layer. It went easier than I expected. -

I am a complete novice at wooden ship building, so you should be able to learn from my mistakes 😁 Thanks, I'm approaching that point with some trepidation. 🥴 -

Finally managed to get back to the modelling bench. planking now ‘pencilled in’. Then the first coat of Oak varnish I have now started ‘roughing out’ the hull frame ready for the inner hull planking. Thanks for looking more soon I hope. -

This is my first ship build other than the odd plastic kit version. I normally build plastic kits, mainly aircraft but over the past 12 months my modelling mojo has deserted me and I’ve only finished two builds. I mentioned the above to @James H and he said he would send me something completely different. How pleased was I when this beauty arrived in the post complete with a keel clamp and plank nipper that James didn’t need anymore. When finish she’s supposed to look like this: so I sat down at my bench and this after got a good start. All being well I should have some more done tomorrow. Please do leave suggestions and tips, I’m new to this 😀

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.
