    Hi! Well, almost done. Need to make and shape some rope coils to go on the pins and lay up the sheets as it is when sailing.

    Working on the two last sails today, getting closer…😀

    Test fit. Finally a safe place to display the model during house renovation.

    A little finishing left before I can put some paint on and install downlights and acrylic glass. Hope to have it finished next week so I can put the boat in a safe place.

    I finally found time to start building a show case, plans have changed… I am not a carpenter, but with some acrylic and paint I hope it will be presentable.

    I have made a file for the Cricut and have a lot of adhesive paper. If you give me your adress i will cut all the masking you need for the main sail and snailmail them to you?

    I found out today that they are not telltales but ropes to tie the sail when reefed?

  16. Norwegian Plastic
    Trying to make reefing points🙈

    Finished the first side now. The Cricut makes this a lot easier.

    Started to paint the main sail tonight. Made some masks from contact paper with the Cricut, put a generous layer of matte varnish to seal the edges and then a thin layer of Tamiya red.
  19. Norwegian Plastic
    It will be a static model but able to sail. Believe I will sail it to get some cool pictures and a video and then it will be put in a glassed box built into the wall😂

    A little more sewing today, not overly happy with the result but bad boltropes are better than no boltropes…

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.
