    Thread hijacking? Ive never heard anything so absurdly ridiculous. I couldn't see the extra pictures Ive sent you on the thread, so maybe looking into that would be great. As for your description of the ship you're probably correct. Now my history may be lacking regarding these ships but I built a 4ft plank on frame Cutty Sark some years ago, so telling me the modification of my ship isn't worth my while isn't the question or advice I was requesting. I drive a modified Porsche 911, a 57 Bentley and virtually built my own house, so do you wish to advise me about any of those too? Now if you could refrain from the condescending attitude it would be greatly appreciated, and telling me to read the rules as if you're talking to a child doesn't help either. I will be deleting my comments forthwith, in the event your toys fall out of your pram. I only hope the rest of the bloggers on here are not as troublesome as you. Good day!

    Thanks for the reply and Indeed it is. It's written on the name plate. With all the auctions selling or who've sold this ship, they've called it a clipper for some reason.. 6 guns on the top deck and 8 guns below is more like a frigate would you not say? Cheers Gaz.

    Hi guys. Ive just got what was thought to be a clipper ship for the sideboard. Its called 'Siglo xix' and can be found when googled. Thing is its got 28 guns. Its a nice little, or large mass produced display piece that needs a bit of work and detailing. Now while im waiting for my account to set up, could you point me in the right direction as to what on earth it is please. A 28 gun would usually point to a 6th Rate Ship as in a RN frigate? After looking at this ship its got 28 guns. 12 guns on the top deck and 16 lower deck guns or 8 guns per side. As a member pointed out Siglo xix is Spanish for 19th Century. Cheers Gaz

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.
