    The result was such beauty
  2. KarenM
    At the same time I cut out the decoration for the stern
  3. KarenM
    It turned out almost like in the picture
  4. KarenM
    I gradually began assembling the side panels based on the pictures. I still couldn't find any drawings.
  5. KarenM
    I cut out the guides for the roof sides.
  6. KarenM
    I made an arch over the entrance. Meanwhile, I was thinking about how to make the sides of the stern.
  7. KarenM
    The figure was cut on a 4-axis CNC machine.
  8. KarenM
    I found information about door handles in the Endsor book
  9. KarenM
    I ordered silicone for molds. While I'm waiting, I made a figurehead on a CNC machine. Then I made ship holders from bronze.
  10. KarenM
    Made master models of guns. Now it's time to make silicone molds.
  11. KarenM
    In order to make holes in the deck for the masts, I had to make the masts first.
  12. KarenM
    I have a question, what kind of door handles were on ships in the 1660-1670s?
  13. KarenM
    General view of the ship.
  14. KarenM
  15. KarenM
    I've made all the gratings and ladders. I'll sew up the middle of the deck with slats and take on the guns.
  16. KarenM
    The steering wheel control lever works.
  17. KarenM
    On the lower deck, I decided to make the gun carriages without wheels. They will need to be glued well so that they do not accidentally come off. When I glue the deck with slats, it will be impossible to get to these guns.
  18. KarenM
    The rudder feather fell into place
  19. KarenM
    Made a rudder feather. Soldered the hinges from wire.
  20. KarenM
    I am tired of hitting wire with a hammer to make loops for ports. I bought myself this unit. Now the wire is flattened very quickly and very quietly.
  21. KarenM
    I pierce the inside of the gun port covers with copper nails.
  22. KarenM
    I glue the hinges to the port cover and hammer in copper nails made from copper wire.
  23. KarenM
    Then I blacken the loops with a chemical liquid.
  24. KarenM
    Then I drill holes for the nails.
  25. KarenM
    Then I bend it into a loop.

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.
