    Yes, that's right. The boats will be covered from above.
  2. Valeriy V
    Nils, I am posting my plans for a workboat and a lifeboat. Perhaps they will be useful to you.
  3. Valeriy V
    Thank you Nils! I drew the drawing of the boat hull myself according to the reference data taken from the USSR GOST. I don't have a 3D printer and I don't know how to draw drawings for it. But I have friends who helped me solve this problem according to my drawings of the boats.
  4. Valeriy V
    Lifeboats are custom-made using a 3D printer.
  5. Valeriy V
    Thanks, Greg! These models are ordered by owners of private collections. I have not yet interacted with museums, but I know that they tend to acquire simpler and cheaper models.
  6. Valeriy V
    Yes, Tony, there's not much left to finish the process. I need to make and assemble the parts of the rescue device and think about how to make the letters for the name.
  7. Valeriy V
    The propeller is installed in its place together with the rudder.
  8. Valeriy V
    After polishing and adjusting the blade profile, the propeller took on a finished look.
  9. Valeriy V
    I then soaked the propeller in a citric acid solution for 30-45 minutes.
  10. Valeriy V
    This is a photo of the propeller after the silver soldering process is complete.
  11. Valeriy V
    After that, it was time to make the propeller. The photo shows the process of assembling the parts on a soldering stand.
  12. Valeriy V
    And now the mainmast cargo gear is assembled.
  13. Valeriy V
    The photo shows the cargo device on the foremast.
  14. Valeriy V
    I greet everyone and thank you for your congratulations, likes and comments. I am pleased that my small model arouses interest among grateful viewers of my process. I move on to the stage of assembling small parts on the cargo device of the steamer.
  15. Valeriy V
    I welcome everyone to the new year! Installation of cargo handling equipment for holds No. 1 and No. 2
  16. Valeriy V
    Thank you, Keith, for your congratulations! I also congratulate all forum members on the New Year holidays! And I wish everyone a good mood and success in building models!
  17. Valeriy V
    I continue to assemble the cargo device parts on the ship's spar deck.
  18. Valeriy V
    Thank you, Nils! The railings are soldered from brass wire with a diameter of 0.4 mm and coated with nickel. Holes with a diameter of 0.6 mm are drilled in the deck. Then the guard railings are put in place with cyanoacrylate glue.
  19. Valeriy V
    A steam winch for mooring is installed on the poop deck.
  20. Valeriy V
    And finally, the traditional photo with a match.
  21. Valeriy V
    Group photo.
  22. Valeriy V
    All parts of the steam winch are assembled together.
  23. Valeriy V
    Assembly of steam drive parts.
  24. Valeriy V
    Thank you all for your feedback and likes. I am pleased that my viewers' interest does not fade. I continue working on the cargo winches. Before I start their final assembly, I need to check all the parts for compatibility.
  25. Valeriy V
    BRAVO! Ras, this steamship turned out much better than the previous models. And it's just great that you didn't paint some parts, this maneuver allowed you to revive your model.

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.
