HMS Beagle by Krupi - OcCre - 1:60
Pete D replied to Krupi's topic in - Kit build logs for subjects built from 1801 - 1850
Thats what I thought when deciding to paint as advised . A very good job . Excellent work -
Decided to do the anchors and chains . Looked like an easy task , but the anchors are a bit cumbersome to work with. Guess the end justifies the means in this case

Started working on assembling the smaller ship's boats . Not that easy to work with such small boats

One of the methods that I have used , is not to depress the whole pin into the wood . Leave it out about 2 mm . This means you can pull it out once the glue is set. Works with both glue sets -
Here I have done some of the main deck fittings. Out together the capstan and fitted the chains. Put together the housing cover

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.
