    More rigging 🙂 Still a lot to do, also cleaning up and some ropes I want to redo, but here she is, close to seaworthyness 😉 And I really will do some proper photos soon, but you know how it goes, no time cause stays to attach

    And great photography too! I got so much to learn still ...
  24. wvdhee
    It really does change it a lot yes, gives it 'volume' and presence 😊
  25. wvdhee
    Looking great and enjoy yourselves! 😃
  26. wvdhee
    Yards on the fore mast And that's all for now 😉
  27. wvdhee
    Bit of bowsprit rigging... I'm liking this a lot to be honest 😃 slowly but surely.
  28. wvdhee
    Nothing wrong with using pins for first planking imho.
  29. wvdhee
    Ummagumma!!

    That was just a proposal on how to add bulwarks to the quarter deck and for castle no? Sphinx never had that if I'm correct.
  31. wvdhee
    It is yes, very hard forged steel. It stays sharp for a long time and I'm sharpening it with water stones. Again, no power tools 😉
  32. wvdhee
    Good luck 😉
  33. wvdhee
    I think that I'd do with power tools though. 😅
  34. wvdhee
    Working on the yards. Since I don't have a lathe I tried the drill method, but didn't like it a lot. So I resorted to a little thumb plane, little chisel, sandpaper and patience 😊 it's ok, not really slow tbh. I prefer this over power tools actually.

    Looking nice!

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.
