RolBerg replied to RolBerg's topic in Building, Framing, Planking and plating a ships hull and deck

kit review 1:48 San Bartolome by Pavel Nikitin
RolBerg replied to James H's topic in REVIEWS: Model kits
Was this a real ship? Looks a little cartoonish but very beautiful. -
If you live outside usa witch most people do Proxxon is a brand they sell in many country's. Cost a lot but it is a niche marked and the options for mini hobby tools are slim.

Most beautiful build i have ever seen. i can't imagine how it is possible to get all those tiny details on something that small. -

Thank you. I have built RC aircraft from wood before and plastic models so i think i will be able to build something more advanced then the most basic models. I will try on the Black Prince first but if i see that i need something simpler i will buy the model Polaris from OcCre. I don't think they sell Model Shipway models here and importing these even if they are cheap to buy at a store they will become twice the price or more when shipping, import charges and vat is paid. It make more sense to import an expensive model. Many years ago i bought the model Harvey from Artesania to my dads 65 years birthday and he had never built a wooden ship before just some plastic models of aircrafts and one small plastic ship (that i know of). But he built that boat with no help from others or internet in under 3 months and the result was perfect, so if i have a 1/4 of his natural talent i will be fine.

Hello. Yes i will do that so i don't do any major mistakes and learn to do it the right or best way on my first build.
-
Thanks. Looked at the drawings and building instructions to the Black Prince and they are pretty vague so i will be asking a lot i guess.

Hello from Norway I am new to ship building and found two models from Mamoli that i will try to build first. I bought them new from a guy for 120 usd for both. If i do well i will go for a large model of either Wasa, Soleil Royal, Victory or Santisima Trinidad. Will put out pictures during the build, so now i just have to wait for all my tools to arrive.

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.
