    Buoy is completed and attached to the anchor. The production was a little more complicated, but resultat is OK. Now only lanterns left to build and hull will be completely finished .

    I finished the blocks for cathead and four anchors. Now I´m preparing a buoy for one of the anchors - pictures come next.

    Hi guys, I'm very glad you like my boat building . I finished the the rudder and I added a belt of decorations on the boat. The boat is in fact done.

    Jastrzab: thanks for comments. Next pictures are following special for you . Sparrow: Jan, I am very glad to serve as a source of inspiration . Some years ago I was in the same situation, but after busy years in business I have now a lot of time on ship modeling . The inside of the boat is completely ready, the rudder remains to be completed and then anchor and oars.

    Swivel guns are placed on the board, so I decided to finally finish galion.The result does not look bad, although does not reflect reality.
  11. marsalv
    Swivel guns for the deck and the masts.

    Tiller and parts for ensign staff fastening are completed and mounted on the hull.

    Thanks Jan Stropped bocks - I used my serving machine. Method of producing I learned from the Russian (Ukrainian?) modeler.

    Thanks to ZyXuz and mtaylor - I'm glad you like it I finished the belfry. I was a little angry at that, but in the end it looks pretty good. The most difficult was the production of the upper arch for me.
  16. marsalv
    And the last two pictures sheet bitts with belaying pins. Belaying pins were a little bigger, so I decided to reduce their length.

    Thanks for all your compliments Edwin - the hold down for the drill is part of Micromot drill stand MB 140/S (http://www.proxxon.com/en/micromot/28606.php?list). Today I will post some pictures from sheet bitts production. It was a great challenge for me, what I can make from the wood. The result you can judge for yourself.

    Guns and tackles are installed on the deck, shot garlands (?) are completed. I am very happy to have this part of the building successfully behind. It was quite a lengthy and difficult phase of bilding. I think the result is quite good.
  19. marsalv
    Thanks friends for your kind words, they are great motivation for further work on the RC for me. Work continues with the preparation of gun tackles - breechings, side and train tackles. It goes slowly in this size, thank God, there are only 8 guns on RC
  20. marsalv
    Hand pumps are finished. It was quite hard work (at least for me), but I like the result.
  21. marsalv
    Thanks for compliment. Belaying pins - at first I only intended to modify the belaying pins from the kit. Because I will need more of them, I decided to make my own. They are a little bigger, but at the first attempt it is not so bad.
  22. marsalv
    Thanks John, I´m glad you like my work Capsquares are now done, cannons are completed. I did not use guns from the kit, I replaced them with Amati guns.
  23. marsalv
    Gun carriages are completed.
  24. marsalv

  25. marsalv

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.
