    Hi Jeff, Thank you very much for following my build and your kind remarks. I am doing my best but unfortunately my free time is really limited. Frederica

    Hello rfolsom You were quite fortunate that the planking covered the damage done by your birds. Birds always love pecking on wood. Hi Jeff Thank you and yes, you are quite right. Pets and models do not mix well. That is the reason why my pets are never allowed in the workshop unless they are supervised. Even then it will only be a short visit. In and out within a few minutes. Frederica Hi all, I had to place an additional piece of wood on part 2A so that the fore deck would sit in the correct position. I have started the first planking I placed the garboard plank. For reasons of ease I used a plank which is wider that the ones supplied in the kit. The first planking has almost finished with just a few planks remaining to be placed at the top part and also the formation of the rounded shape of the stern. Frederica

    Hi Sjors, They are keel supports and will not be planked. There are another 4 decks that will go on top and will be visible so they will be planked. Hi Mobbsie, As I said, my birds are not allowed in the workshop. If I let them in I know they will chew on everything they find. Keeping the workspace tidy is not so difficult. Before taking photos just drop everything on the floor It's so simple. Thanks for following my build and keeping Sjors in check. We don't want popcorn all over the place because then the birds will go mad to come in. Frederica

    Hi Ian, Don't worry about Vasileios. He has enough room to work on his Victory. Hi Sjors, The only thing the birds can do is chew up all the small parts. That is why they are not usually allowed in the workshop. Frederica Hi all, I started placing the bulkheads. The keel supports and deck supports have been glued in place. Frederica

    Next comes bulkhead number ten on which parts number 18 must be glued before the bulkhead itself is glued in place. I placed parts number 18 one by one and using a modeler's angle in order to get the angles right I glued them in their place. Our two friends. Tame, hand fed cockatiels which usually fly freely around the house most of the day and very often like landing on our heads. Frederica

    Hi Sjors, Make yourself comfortable next to Anjia I am quite busy these days but I always find a little time to devote to the beautiful Royal Caroline. Hi Richard, Thank you. I like her very much too. Frederica

    Hello Jeff, ZyXuz, Ian and Anja It's always nice to have an audience. I will do my best to produce a nice model. The Royal Caroline is a beautiful ship and she will have all my attention. More progress soon Frederica

    Thank you Pawel and Joe. I will keep all of you posted with new photos. Frederica

    I made the rabbet and bearding line using a craft knife and a chisel for the digging out. I built a construction using metal brackets to keep the keel straight and steady when all the parts which form the basis of the ship are stuck. I dry fitted the bulkheads and supports for the keel in order to check out their fit. Frederica

    Hi to all, I am starting to build Royal Caroline by Panart. Some photos of the kit's contents. Frederica

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.
