La Palme by Tobias - 1:36 - POF

Very nice and clean work. I have a question. How is the blackening of brass achieved? Just painting it with tung oil? marsalv -
Deadeyes. Most modelers make deadeyes using a lathe. I tried a new method (at least for me) of production using a CNC milling machine.

Thank you No Idea. The last decoration is added at the end of the mainrail and the head is completely finished. Next parts will be channels, chains, deadeyes etc.

To scrubbyj427: It is not possible to make all cuts in one pass. At first I tried to mill the figure gradually from all 4 sides - without much success. In the end, I decided to mill on only two sides and finish the details on the back and front by hand. I am satisfied with the result. Lower and upper cheeks.

Now it's time to finish the head, so I had to start producing a long-delayed component - a figurehead. Making a figure using a CNC milling machine was quite a challenge for me. You can now judge the result.

Forecastle guardrail is installed with iron stanchions. The stanchions for the gangway are double stanchions with a revolving branch.

Thank you giampieroricci. I had the opportunity to see your L´Amarante model in Rijeka last year. Great model. L´Amarante will probably be my next model, so I will study your L´Amarante log afterwards. A few components on the quarterdeck have been added.

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.
