hi! here we go again, I made some progress I build the jig frames and I started to assembly the keel and Bow which I tried to make it look bit more real than the Plan which it seems assemble only in 2 huge wooden pieces, I try to use black paper too for caulking , then I have to work a lot o sanding to get better effect, but for the very beginning it seems not so ugly stay tuned Cheers
-
I did some progress in framing and I found out that my previous drawing were wrong , due my less skill to set the printer, so the more framing I was assembly the more mistakes I found out. then I finally got the right blueprint of the project in the proper ratio and I decided to start over. stay tuned , you'll see the progress soon

Hi Tmj, thanks for your encouragement, I'm fully aware that this could be a really challenge and bold endeavour, and if I fail ,( and I will for sure ) I'll remake it and remake it again. and I'm sure from this forum and from esteemed modellers as all of you are, I can get great support and suggestion. cheers

here we go, I decided to make my first model in Admiralty and I collected the plans from the internet site, spend times to study and thanks to this forum I figured it out how to try to build my first model. I choose " la Licorne" because I like the French -British frigates. and she got a bit history: 1755 she was a French frigate then captured by British in 1778 soon more pics shall be attached to check the progress. I'm ready to listen and to read all suggestions and criticism on it. I hope all professionals here can be little patient with an amateur as I am.

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.
