    I've used metal lifeboat by kit Amati, But I'd like to cover boat with false-leather cover (i've creased a piece of paper then paint it) In your opinion is better light or dark brown color?

    hello and thanks for your comments! I wanted to build a dystopian bounty, in a world where the ship had not been burned by the mutineers and held in Pitcairn Bay for a long time. so I coated the keel with copper and used the AK burnisher, quick brush strokes. the copper was stained with cyanoacrylate glue so it was easy to create a smudge effect. then I drybrush some acrylic color mixed by myself to give copper oxidation. with a drop of glue cyanoacrylate then I glued some paper tissue painted in green, black and brown to simulate algae a little, but without exaggerating! I'm glad you like it See you soon!

    Hello construction updates second planking copper shield hull aging
  12. Gct86
    First planking complete. I must sandpaper, but I hope this is a good first planking.

    Meantime I've completed (excluding hatches) deck planking and caulking. For my Bounty I though a "worn out" finish, post-mutiny period. So I've putty planking whith black milliput. Milliput is very hard to apply, but I like the result.

    For example: Here seems almost correct: Here not (must sandpaper a Little bit):

    Thank you. Actually I have to sandpaper a lot because there is a "belly" too big in the center of filler blocks. Using a 0,5mm strip I'm trying to understand the correct curve of hull.🤞

    I'm trying to make bow filling block, but I don't know if I'm right. Any advise? Thanks
  20. Gct86
    Ahaha sorry Thank you by the way
  21. Gct86
    Thank you Dave! Many times I watch your videos on youtube! Your bounty is amazing and you channel is an inspiration. I try to learn somethings from videos and forum, but for me is very fun to think so much about problems and founding solutions myself. For example I have discarted filling block on stern. Probably I was wrong, but I want to see what happen.

    Amati kit has several mistake. Istruction tell me to glue a 4x4 millimeters (sorry I'm european😂) plank for keel, but other keel components and falsekeel are 5x5 🤔 I check all the joints and I hope to glue without mistakes. AOTS hms bounty helps me with some details (I can t reach perfection, but I will improve a little my model) See you soon

    Waiting for start, I've cutted a piece of wood of bounty deck shape to bending planks. Amati have a similar tool in stock. It should work
  24. Gct86
    I'm afraid...

    I ve painted flags whit tissue acrilic color on both side with small brush and mask tape.

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.
