    I want to indroduce my follow-up project after my La Belle. Modelling ships is an evolution. In skill, knowledge, as well in challenge. For me it is, so i will go one step further and try to draw my own plan for a plank on frame modell. I will try to build the famous Redoutable which has her part in the history in the battle of Trafalgar. The Suffren was build in 1790/91 and refitted in 1794 in Brest and renamed in Redoutable. My project is based on the contemporary plans from the Tigre availible in the NMM. The Tigre was captured in 95 and, business as usual, measured in Portsmouth. All the 74er buildt in Brest are based on the same plan, there are only differences in the details. The Suffren/Redoutable and the Tigre was build in Brest with a small gap of two years. With a very high propability both are very, maybe absolutly, similar. The plan is now to draw the whole Timberingplans and to reconstruct the ship to get drawings for a POF-Modell. First i measured the plan than i put more than 900 measureingpint into the cad to build the hull. The designing from the hull is now complete. Sorry for the poor quality from the screenshots, but i can post the pictures only in JPG.

    Thanks Patrick. I use this pdf since beginning of the project. The list of artefacts are very useful.

    Thank you guys for the recognition. The La Belle is only my learning project for preparation for my next project. Its my first scratchbuild and i have to learn all the techniques. Unfortunatly this cost a lot of time because every detail is new for me. There is any trial an error in the game. But its a lot of fun and as well a lot of passion.

    Thanks all for the nice coments and the likes. @the learner I use Magix Deluxe Video for the timelapse. But there is noch secret, any movie software can do this job. @dvm27 Thats a big problem. I spend my freetime on the buildinglogs from other colleagues or i continue with my own project. No time for nothing. Thanks for adding my channel. But with my four videos you can keep your scheduler like it is. ☺️. I have always one eye on Glens La Belle and Catherines list of artifacts, before i start a new part on my La Belle. I try to keep the details from the wreck, if its possible. Sometimes it is, sometimes it´s not, because the plan and the wreck are different in many points.

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.
