    While I was looking at the model, I decided to hang all the flags.

    Now I'm trying to arrange a photo shoot. I will take pictures at home, because it is very difficult to take her anywhere. The model turned out to be 1500mm long, 1500mm high and 600mm wide.

    Construction completed. Now I need to do a photo shoot of the ship.

    I first pull the mainsail, let it spin, and then just tighten it with a rope.

    Is this place of interest to you?

    I knit ratlines immediately after installing the shrouds. Then there are difficulties when wiring the rigging, and I have to use tweezers. More interfere with knitting the rigging of the guy, and not the ratlines. Knitting ratlines after running rigging will be much more difficult.

    That's all for now. Now I'm doing the rest of the yards.

    Unfortunately, I only have a lot of photos for this ship. For other models, I only have final photos.

    I have been building a ship for 2 years. It remains to hang 3 yards. I think in a month I will finish the construction.

    Frames, bars on the windows I draw in autocad or in corel. Then I cut it out on a CNC machine from wooden dies of different thicknesses. I draw the decor in 3dmax, then cut it out on a CNC machine and bring it to the final with a drill. For guns I make a master model from wood, then I cast it from tin. Then all the copper is electrolyzed and then blackened with a chemical solution. It's so hard to describe everything in detail. If you have specific questions, write, I will answer. I twist the ropes for rigging on a special machine, which was made for me according to my drawings. For tying blocks, always caged ropes. I also check the first shrouds and all the loops that touch the spars.

    Since there was no spars in the book, I made it according to the book "The rigging of the ships in the days of spritsail topmast 1600-1720"

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.
