I have gotten the hull painted and the brass rod installed on the hull. I am going to wait on the bow Decorative brasswork, until after the Bowsprit it is installed. The deck houses made a little bit more sanding and then staining. I need to take some time to figure out the rest of the deck connections for the rigging.

I retroactive created this build log. I went off the build plan when it came to the light towers. I used tubing instead of the supplied wooden dowels because i want to install mini LED lights in the towers. For the mounts i used 1/4" bolts that i drilled a hole through the middle for the wires. For the lights i used Lighthouse LED 12V, 5MM flat top prewired and the power supply from lighthouseled.com. The Model is 98% complete. I lost a couple of items during a move. I ordered the parts along with my next project.

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.
