last update.... today the KWdG went into it`s glass case in my hobby room.... The shelf was lowered a bit in order to compensate the case hight, an with the admirals help the glass surfaces were cleaned inside / outside before closing the bonet and everthing was fitted into position. This now closes the project... Nils

Xebec by mij - FINISHED - 1:60 scale
Mirabell61 replied to mij's topic in - Build logs for subjects built 1751 - 1800
Hi Mij, I very much like the way you are building the modified Chebec after the basic Amati plan in scale 1:60 Well done ! I am also at the piont of building this ship and am in the preperation phase right now. The bought plan from Amati was though enlarged by 25 %, turning out the model length to 90 cm, and so then being in a scale of 1:48 instead Very much liked are your carvings and the way you did these. Lovely the eagles and the bow figure head. I just came across your log by coincidense and wish you all the best with the further fitting out of this nice model for the case if it is not already completed at this time...... (the fore last post by Mark is over a year old...) Nils -

Hi Karl, sorry to hear of the damage and the related give up of the model... are you again going for 1:36 scale and for the aft half only ?. Wish you all the best with the third run for it... Nils -
Jack, thanks for sharing this wonderful build log with your fellow members, you did a splendid job on it, just as you and your freinds did on the real thing. I loved those pics when sailing on the Adria under that sunshine sky and the blue waters... Nils

Hello Piet and Michael, many thanks for your kind words ,..... Piet, if I remember right, the "Musi" is or was a coastal freighter with aft and mid-deckhouse. We exchanged by PM some time ago...The scale 1:50 will be fine... but you`ve said it, there are some other projects waiting for completion in the row Michael, thanks for your congrats and words,.... Hope that you have meantime adjusted everything to the right places in your new home and that you and your wife feel well there. BTW. (perhaps I missed the last pics somehow) but were there any pics of the final status of the full restored "Albertic" liner, when you returned it to your client ? 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.
