    Thank you, very much. I finally got the hull done, it some odd spots but i'll get better as I go.
  6. ImNewToThis
    So, because the side view of the diagram is unclear, I have to go off of the top, front and rear views to line up to vertices accordingly, correct? Now that I look at the top view, I do see the water lines, and THAT is what I line my vertices up to, right? By the way, if I'm bugging you just let me know please.
  7. ImNewToThis
    unless those grid lines ARE the waterlines, but I dont see how I would match the vertices to space them like you did. I must be missing something, I do that often.

    ok yeah I have a bit of a problem, the hull diagram that I use doesn't have the waterlines like yours has, is there a way to estimate it? Or do I have to search for another diagram? There might not be another one, so I'm hoping there is a way to estimate it. This is what the diagram looks like, its missing the waterlines that you match the vertices to.

    Thank you, I'll try that when I have the time and let you know if it works or not. This is also my first blender build, so it may take me a while but im a quick learner and very comitted.

    For this top curve (bottom figure on the picture) yours is on the lower of the two pictures

    I went along with all of this and got far, but there is one thing I couldn’t figure out, how would you shape the hull to match the curvature of the top view? I’ve tried a couple different things, none of which worked. Then again, I’m new to this. Literally. I’m attempting to build the hull for a NYC railroad steam tug, if that helps. I couldn’t find any great diagrams to use, so I had to improvise, still got it to correctly scale, however.

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.
