    Thank you Keith, I thought it would work out better, but still I`m pleased with the look, and leave it as is ... I wanted to sew a bolt-rope all around, and after several attempts in vain, for the bin, I only glued the edges of the cloth. My wife`s sewing machine goes back into its case again Nils

    What a nice "face" looking at us ! Very good work Valeriy Nils

    yeah, John, and especially in that tropical region. I hope it works out as this is quite a narrow gap between the margins for sewing something .... Nils

    Update I`m planing to make and mount two awning-canvas-cloths on the bridge between wheelhouse and wing cabs. ( at least try to do it). Therefore each two rails with fastening eyes will be mounted. The wheelhouse ceiling is at the sametime also the planked monkey deck floor with the anchor bolt eyes for the front funnel stays. The railing to the monkey deck will be fitted later. Also there are now some short access ladders to the mid hold areas on the welldecks. Nils monkey deck platform rails with fastening eyes rails with fastening eyes for the awning boltropes short access- ladders to the mid hold areas

    Valeriy, thanks for sharing your technique in applying the "putty-belts". I was`nt familiar with that methode before you showed it. You did a super job and its very inspiring and I asume it mut be a nice job for modelers who have experience and a steady hand with "Gips-Stuckarbeiten" structures. I am wondering if it may be possible to combine the way you do it and the way I usually do my hull metal-plating riveting Nils
  18. Mirabell61
    right Keith, thanks for your word, I`m on the final straight right now, but still a lot to do. when the bridge is done, there will be enough to do, so that I probably wo`nt make it before the new year. There are several awnings to be made and mounted, as well as the deck above the wheelhouse and it`s railing. also all the small stiffening out elbows around the bridge super structure, the nav.lights, life saver rings, some lockers, etc ...... Nils

    Update starting with the bridge wing-cabs today, (here card template) with those typical "Ergenstrasse-outcuts". Also the flagpost, the bollards, the Panama fairleads, the mast riggings and the radio short-wave antenna and the stairs are mounted Nils Stb. side card dummy bridge wing-cab Bollards and Panama fairleads forecastle stairways access stairways to aft midship island ( via windless-plattform) The radio antenna

    Very good looking result Valeriy, The hull structured with these "belts" give the model a realistic look Nils
  21. Mirabell61
    very neat frame sawing work Keith, it looks very promissing for the further progress Nils
  22. Mirabell61
    Hi B.E., That gallion figure is a real eyecatcher, wunderbar ! Nils
  23. Mirabell61
    Hi Ian. thats an interesting engine I have`nt seen before, it looks like a giant double action reciprocating plunger pump, only other way round.... Nils
  24. Mirabell61

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.
