    That's a very beautiful build, Francois! This one is on my to-do pile.

    A little bit more from Facebook. 1/86, similar scale to the new HMS Victory, but a smaller ship.

    Perhaps HMS Sovereign of the Seas/Sovereign/Royal Sovereign?
  15. Marco_van_H
    They are announcing it on their website already, but no further hints.

    Very nice. HMV always delivers, in design, paper and print quality.

    It is available, I have mine at home already. It looks good. https://kolderstok.com/products/test?variant=48902049366342

    If you decide on the Caldercraft version (I did, and very much recommend it), there is a very useful build report of the prototype: http://www.jotika-ltd.com/Pages/1024768/Victory_Front.htm

    I'm just now seeing your build report, Hennie, it's very impressive

    Thanks for the review! An improvement I notice over the AL Vasa, is that there are proper deadeyes now, instead of lasercut ones. With the Vasa I wasn't too enamoured with the single planking in limewood, and the way it looked after varnishing, but at least this hull will be fully painted/copper plated. Looks like the lasercut and PE parts are excellent. Again highly detailed and easy-to-understand instructions, but a printed version would be welcome.

    My home-made solution to an ever growing problem.
  26. Marco_van_H
    Very nice build, gives a good insight how this model was designed. I enjoyed building this one too, I finished it in a light wood paint as to keep the details visible.
  27. Marco_van_H
    Looks very good! I ordered my set through Scaldis late last year, so it's on the to-do-list.
  28. Marco_van_H
    That's a great build, congrats! I built this one too several years ago, I remember it to be a lot of fun, but the end results was not quite as intricate as yours.
  29. Marco_van_H
    Looks good, nice touch sorting out the walnut strips of different colours.

    Thank you all! Gregg, that ship is the VOC East-Indiaman Batavia, which got infamously wrecked off Australia on her maiden voyage. It is a model published by Kolderstok in the Netherlands (https://kolderstok.com/en/) (kolderstok is Dutch for whipstaff). There's a full replica in Lelystad, which I visited a number of times to photograph for the model.

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.
