    Fantastic job, Can't wait until the hull plating starts!

    The black bands that go onto the top of the funnel? Are the all the correct height or some of them different?

    I had no idea she was that big! Looks amazing. I envy you having a whole room to spread out plans etc. I just have one little computer desk!! I remember I almost suffocated Rigging my Bounty by forgetting to breath. Keep up the good work

    Very neat and tidy job. Interesting how the rat lines will but installed later. Are the brass handrails going to have a coat of paint? It looks real good and is coming along real fast.

    I know what you mean. Time just seems to fly! What scale is this model?
  6. S.Coleman
    Now that is a lot of small parts! You have your work cut out for you for sure. It looks great. I do admire your ratlines. Nice job.

    I like the curtains in the windows. Nice touch good work

    A kit on the market?!! I want one too! Spent abit of time reading about this ship and the fateful events that happened in that storm. Will most defiantly be checking in soon for more updates.

    That's an interesting base for the mast. What was this winch used for?
  10. S.Coleman
    I like the stern windows. Came up nice. I hope those head timbers fit without too much trouble. The whole thing looks great.

    I too love this ship and always strive to find out something new about her. You are doing a neat job! What are the exterior walls lined with? Is that paper with the windows and doors printed on it? Your filler blocks look nice and snugg. Good work!

    Hello dcaj2. If you need any billings gear for rigging eg cord, belaying pins, dead eyes blocks. Perth hobby store on Hutton street sells a selection of them.

    Michael, you can cut the flags out using sharp scissors. Be careful to cut just INSIDE of the black outline. You dont want this black line on the flag. The flags you have in the picture have two black lines down one side. I run an extra line (rope) from the mast head to a belaying pin on the deck. I have the rope CA glued on the right hand black line and fold over the left hand side to encase the rope. Using CA glue this works well. Hope this helped. Good luck.

    I do like the way you are going about the assembly. It will look great when all is together on the ship. Is that the Testors rang of paint you are using?
  15. S.Coleman
    Hey that deck looks great. Yes it is a shame to have most of it covered but at least you know it's there!.
  16. S.Coleman
    Hey looks good. I have seen some using the black bristles off an old broom as well. Yours looks great. Just a suggestion. Keep up the good work.
  17. S.Coleman
    Nice work. And at 1:64 I'd imagine it would be just fiddley enough! The clinker plank affect come up real well.
  18. S.Coleman
    A superb job so far. Nice and neat wood working. This ship was defiantly reinforced!! I like that idea of raising or lowering the Screw. Imaging the damage the ice would of done to her.
  19. S.Coleman
    It looks a little out of place to me. I think it's the flat edge on top of the carving that just dose not seem right. Other than that everything else looks great. I had the same problem popping a gun on my Rattlesnake. As Ian M describes it is a little bit of keyhole surgery. Good luck.
  20. S.Coleman
    Wow. That is a lot of dust!! Do you know how long ago these were built?
  21. S.Coleman
    Looking real nice. Looks real tricky around those prop shafts but it's coming along good. Great work.
  22. S.Coleman
    I do like it a lot! I take it that the kit comes with gun port hinges?
  23. S.Coleman
    Speechless.... Top quality at it's finest. Well done!!
  24. S.Coleman
    It is looking good. Looks neat as well.I like your use of clamps!
  25. S.Coleman
    Doing a fantastic job mate. Keep up the brilliant work.

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.
