    Devil is not sleeping ... or just retrograde Mercury ( who believe in Zodiac ... I do not ... until now ... still do not ... but ... ) Flood in the kitchen with 150 liters of water on the wooden floor ... a real party ... so Her Majesty is gonna rest a while until I finish this show and repair all damage See you soon, folks

    Thank you, Vlad. As I said somewhere in this, I think, the slowest build on MSW log, couple of years ago, I made terrible mistakes with lines of main deck, so, I decided to overdetail Her Majesty, to try to "pull up" whole thing. That approach lead me to this ... ant work ... (which is, really - nothing, comparing what, for instance, MSW member Igor Sky do!!!!) However, it is fun to test your own limits, and to learn. Thank you for watching and following

    Atttempt No 4. and that is final solution. I just can't do it better. (for now 😁). Top and the bottom are soldered, another little beadt are glued with CA. Acryl paint will harden all structure. All made from brass wire 1mm and 0,3mm.

    Artempt no 3 (right) More elegant and much better But ... WITH MISTAKE !!!! So, here we go again 😭😭😭
  6. NenadM
    Attempt No2. A bit more elegant, much stronger. Yesterday I made this from toothpick and 0,3mn wire, today from steel large paper clip and staples. As usual with me, obviously there will be attempt No 3 as final
  7. NenadM
    And finaly ... Maybe, if I find a way to make it more elegant ... Once upon a time ... Maybe

    Slow, but forward, with many embarrassing factors. One of this is, adding one more to my 100 hobbies ... Mobile phone Photography, taken on my trips and travelings around Serbia Pretty contagiuos ... particullary when you find that you can produce some really nice photos ... Enjoy, if you like

    Next attempt, with holes for little hooks, drilled before soldering, and with front cover. Dia of rings: 4mm upper, 5mm lower. For me, it is impossible to solder hooks on rings in this scale, so I decided to drill holes, and to mount hooks after final mounting when time comes to mount whole spar on it's place. In next post you will see what I mean. In this point rise question about material for hooks, which max dia is 1mm. For now, I am considering posibility to make them from staples 😲
  10. NenadM
    Metal works on bowsprit, attempt.no 1. Rings are 5mm dia and 4mm dia Made from folder mechanism 🤪

    Hello and good luck. Answer to your questions, particulary colors, depends how you imagine your model to look like - in which period of Her life. I have done some research, and decided to show her in present stage, mainly there are many useful photos if Her on internet "Coopering" ... 4000 pieces to put them in scale as on C plans ... a lot of them... If you are not a kind of "hot head" self testing monkey as me, main filter what to do or not is simple question - will it be visible at all? Pls let ne know when you start your log All the best

    CORONA impacted everything. Courts are closed, my job stops, and I am docked in house, going out only for neccessary shoping So, days are long, but filled with domestic and garden works. And naturaly, all of my another hobbies are activated (guitar, painting, writeing short novels, wood carving, cooking, gardening, book reading, music research, history research, furniture making, home decorating, and some kind of internet social life ... ) so, days are short again ... So, Her Majesty is on a hold for a while .. I hope that you all are well and healthy See you soon

    So, here we go ... some kind modelbuilding for dummies I hope you will, and I kindly ask all of you, as much experienced modellers, to check attached photo, and to correct me with adequate names of masts and yards Little explanation. My country is continental, and throught the history, sailing with clippers particulary was not possible, so, in Serbian language, there are not adequate terms for this I made some kind of draft drawing, just as reminder of order for further research of any particulary part, as beggining and entrance to deep and dark forest named masting and rigging

    Hello to all I am forcing myself to learn about masts, yards, spars, rope lines, sails, and all little parts, about which I know - absolutely nothing! A lot to learn about, particullary because for a most of them, there are not Serbian words Enough for solid headache I thing that, without understanding what really happens there, it can not be done on adequate way. Also, informations I collect can help me to decide what to make accurate, and what not to make, or to make in artistic or apromaximate way Time demanding stage of build, in my case. All is, on some way, connected with all another ! Wish me luck and patience

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.
