Wow Ferit, I admit that I had no time until now to look all the pics of your build. That's the first pics where I see the deck of your Berlin. It's looking gorgeous, great work.

Thank you so much for looking and the kind comment B.E. Here's a little update. The planking include the rails at the starbord side are finished so far as possible at the moment. The ornaments at the end of the rails (I don't no the right term) were uncharted waters for me. I decided to do the rail and ornament at one piece. I made a simply stencil because it needs several of that ornaments. The shape of the rail is done with drawing plate and the ornament with cutter and curving tools here you see it at the model I desided to close the spaces between the bulkheads at the port-side based on some trubble during the planking That's looking so I believe the planking will be much easier at this

Lovely little clamps Mark, thats a good idea. I'm convinced your planking will be fine by your quality of work

Congrats Ray, very well done the coppering. I'd like to do it also at the Leopard and this is a good manual for me.

Very nice work Ferit. I have one question. When do you getting the shrouds over the top?

Nice work so far Juan. One question about the dinghy. It seems that the space between the rowing benches are bit to small? Is that right or I'm wrong?

Much thanks for the kind comment Timmo. It's going on with the build. I added two rails during the last days. But I want to display how make the planks above (or under) the gunports at first. First step is to mark the position where the plank must be wider Then I saw the plank with the bandsaw and sanded it Thereafter it must be fitted to the other planks. I did that with a chissel. That's the easiest way to do it for me. Here you can see the result. And now some photos of the current progress.

She's looking very nice after final sanding Ray. The book from Rif Winfield of 50th is good investment. My main concern is also the ornate carving, but that will go off all right.

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.
