Newbie to ship and boat building

Sorry about the delay, a trip to the ER for my ticker , I am ok just to high reading of blood pressure, very high lol Plus the Grandson wanted this doneSo now the second planking is finished 🙌. I did pretty good this time. I ended up having to put a stealers on the Bow and stern but it's planked. Because I did the Sea of Galilee boat the planks on that kit came pre tapered, I thought that I would do the same so, I tapered 10 planks and after the first three planks were on. Then started at the keel and work up. It worked out well except for the stealers but they are under the copper. Now its on to the coppering. @Keith Black I value your opinion very much, but I like shinny things lol I have no intention of using @aliluke method for his copper lol sorry. The shinnier the better for me . I even intend on keeping it shiny by polishing it yearly lol. If it turns out well , if not I will scrape it all off and paint it white. So I am off to learn how to copper, I used my third hand and at the 60 mm mark I drew the water line, I will tape it before I start. But I don't know when I get to that so I will leave it off till I start. I can't thank everyone enough for all their help , but here is another thankyou. Later my friends 😚 PS captain Marvin says he staying lol

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.
