    Hi. I've finished my work on bow ( only figurine of Agamemnon left to paint and attach ). I find this part of work as one of most difficult during hull construction . I'm going to work on quarter galleries in the next stage .

    Thanks DaveBaxt . I Think that Caldercraft kits are still one of the best on the market . Comparing to other models that I’ve already built caldercraft kits have good wood quality ,cnc parts, plans , a lot of photoetched parts .Casting parts could be better - you have to spend some time sanding them ( but it’s typical to all kits manufakturers ) . Kit was devoloped some years ago that’s why you won’t find there pre cut gunports or laser marked decks . Project of quarter galleries isn’t modelers friendly and you have to spend few evenigs on them to get good alligment .Manual for this kit isn’t half as good as new manuals from Occre or Vanguard Models . You have to guess how to place or make many things . I was lucky that I chose Victory for my first model from this company because it has simply better manual ( 3 books instead of one). In conclusion - it is good kit (with a lot of parts )of famous ship but you shouldn’t start it as your first model.

    Thanks Asat . Yes , She is a Maine Coon , but a small one - only 5,5 kg 🙂. I,ve already finished coppering of the whole hull and fixed the rudder .

    Thank you for kind words. I've finished coppering one side of the hull . This wouldn't have happened without support from my assistant 😄

    HI David Fantastic model , and you are making excelent progress . It is difficult to achive ideal smoth finish in wooden hull . Maybe you shold try another coats of putty on it . And after sanding try to spray the hull with surfacer 1500 - 1000 . It will show any imperfections

    Hello Everyone. I'd like to present my current build . It is HMS Agamemnon from Caldercraft . It is my second Caldercraft kit (first was HMS Victory) and overal fifth wooden model ( USS Constitution from Constructo , San Juan Bautista a partwork kit , ORP Błyskawica and DKM Bismarck - partwork from Hachette) . There are lots of avesome builds of this kit on Model Ship World . I was inspired by Vicnelson , Hennie ,Sjors , SaskienSoCal builds . I've been working on this kit for about one year . After I had finished first and second planking I've sanded the hull and fill gaps with Tamiya putty . Then the hull was sprayed with surfacer 1000 and afer that painted with admirality paints . Now I've started coppering the hull

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.
