My granddaughter was watching me the other day doing some work on my Cutter, after 5 or so minutes walked off saying that she wouldn't have the patience to make a model. 🙄 So I think that unless it's instant gratification like a video game, they tend not to bother. That said there are younger people modelling.

Looks good, I liked those small bomber kits when I was younger as they didn't take up too much room 😏 Denis(popeye the sailor) is the fella to tap up for tail heavy bomber solutions 😉 -
Do you mind if I ask, did you have the gunport pattern made or did you cut it yourself? It is taking shape, looking good

Thanks OC and mugje, and thanks for the likes. So planking continues slowly, with the bulwarks between the mainwale and the sheer. I'm forming the gunports as I go instead of cutting them out later. ( there will only be six guns mounted) I mocked up a cannon to check clearance. Just a cardboard cut out and glued to a scrap of what will be the deck. That's it til next time. The shipyard is being re-modelled to make room for Winchelsea so work stops as I have no bench at the moment. Cheers

What a great idea, I'll borrow that if I may. Cheerful is looking really good, your planking is very tidy and looks perfect with the wop finish 👍

Yes, I love the stories of the Trojan war and subsequent tales of Odysseus trials and tribulations trying to get back to Ithaka and Penelope. I will enjoy watching his ship being built.

Hello

Yes, very nice looking ship. Have fun with the rigging of her

That's a smart motorboat😃

Looking good Liam, first planking doesn't necessarily have to be perfect because sanding and filler will help to get a nice and smooth base for the second planking. Edit your second post beat me to it 😉

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.
