Finally, after 3 months and a half, my ship is now completed All the yardarms are now on, and also the anchors (which I finished as closing ceremony ) Anyway, I'm still working on the display case. It shouldn't take too long. Anyway, here are the updates! Spritsail and main yards riggings were easier because there are lesser riggings in front, in which I can do the riggings more comfortably. Spritsail Lift Main Yard And some 'forcing' were done to make the yards look parallel The Yards Lifts Running Rigs Also, added more lamps on my ship.. The mizzen riggings are harder to handle because all the backstays are blocking my hands to rig on the pin rail. Mizzen Lifts Running Rigs And the anchors... Anchors Messy Forecastle And finally the full view Flag pole is on too, with a lamp attached. Starboard Bow Port The whole process has been very fun and enjoyable. Thanks MSW for creating such a good site, to share and learn together. That really benefits me! And thanks to those who helped me on this.. without references and opinions here, I couldn't finished my ship as such satisfying result Thank you and thanks again for dropping by my build log! OK, it's time for the display case!!

Hi ALL, Thanks for your kind words Nick, Glad that you like my cabin. Doing miniature like those is all about patient Your Hermione is a larger ship, so you'll have more things to fit it the cabin Maybe you can make one figure of Emma Watson in the cabin, since she's Hermione in Harry Potter :D (I don't know y I've came out with that idea, maybe I just love her so much )

Some quick updates ^^ OK, it's time for redoing works.. The Ratlines! Thanks for sharing the methods, the result turned out great! Method Used Also, I used cow hitches instead of clove hitches at the first and last shrouds. Cow Hitches Are Used at First and Last Shrouds Total of 392 knots... The feeling doing the last knot of the last ratlines was really good! XD Ratlines Completed Then, I continued to the gaffs.. Main Gaff In Position Stacked up the threads in a circle at the end.. Mizzen Gaff Running Rig Mizzen Gaff Running Rig Current Look The 2 pairs of hanging blocks will be braces for the spritsails. Next move is to put the yardarms on, and my ship is really upon completion

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.
