    Thank you very much Bob for your nice comment Bob, there is a little walk bridge that connects the promenade deck with the forecastle deck. I trust its better that this that would have to go on first, otherwise there is no sufficiant access for mountung it, when the shrouds are in the way Nils

    thanks Patrick, good idea with the salt spray and streaks of rust, I may take it up later on......, for crew and passengers it`s not so easy with the suitable scale, but I`ve been gathering typical "turn of the century" passengers and crew members, for sailors and officers I recently found some nice figures in scale 1:144 from North Star Models Nils

    Update cleats on forecastle deck edge, mounting of spare anchor, and fastening of five turnbuckle screws per side, for the shrouds (M1 threads, left / right) and foremast backstays Nils

    beautiful work Danny, planking, treenailing and surface treatment is top notch ! it must be a very delicate job to safely hit every frame twice for a planks rest (from sheer to keel) with those staggered treenails, well done ! Nils

    Wellcome to the log B.E., I´m very pleased you joined in and many thanks for your kind comments. I love those old plated steamships, even taking in account that the "rivets" may be a tiny bit overscaled sometimes. This build is continuously setting myself before finding solutions how to do a certain details after another, but thats the fun in straining the old brain, it would be boring without.... It`s probably going to get harder when the superstructure details get started Nils

    Thank you very much Patrick, as the two staircasess (forecastle access) were too short , I took some raw etched patterns, clipped them to length, folded the sides and the stairs, and soldered my own side rails on made from 0,5 mm wire. Hight is now 34 mm instead of 27 mm Nils

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.
