Correct black color in surface between white square rail and coopered surface 4. Paint white rail 5. Correct color on water ports surface 6. Paint first and second "brown" rails 7. In mean time discover and looking for solution how to make final standing for Her, make it and then turn Her over 8.

Wish you luck with new build Right now Im on a bussines trip in a room without internet (using cell phone expencive net) and can not post long posts. Try to analyze plans and logs if other scratch builders. Keel lines and lines of decks give you answer with adding some space for connection of ribs. My english is poor to explain better right now Hardly wait for progress Nenad -

Try think about next middle solution: Templates for hull lines from one of kits, and then proceed by Campbell plans and/or photos. Or, harder way, Campbell plans and making your own templates. Yes, you can do this !!!!

60 people were our quests in those two loooong days in our home, and only one wanted to se Her (except me). I think this is one of most important celebration in every parent life. Kids are grown and (almost) ready to spread their own sails in ocean of life And we are a bit older... Only 14℃ outside with continious rain, and I am to lazy to deal with rudder. Add After a hour and half of stearing to something idiotic on TV, could not resist, and went down to make some tests about idea just dropped I stole needles from Admiral forbiden sewing box and smugled them down . With Dremel thing I resized a bit needle's head, cut 2mm under head and make it sharp (also with Dremell) and have got perfect little nail which matches perfect with holes on hinges. Then drilled by hand test hole 0,5mm, put top of this little nail in CA glue, and push it in a little hole. Just perfect. And lesson learned: Nenad, you should think earlier, before start making hinges about how to make this little nails. Also, Nenad, you should think on time about diameter of holes. And, Nenad, you should make nails first before making hinges. If you one day or ever start to use your brain, Nenad, if you had one, rudder could look much precise, neat and better- 4,152 replies

Line of moves ... I was wondering ... It depends how much clumsy and unpatient you are. Higher level of unpatience, unneccesary hurry and hands with their own will causes higher possibility to break something. Threre are not only planes to look planing moves, we must think about ourself charactrer too Maybe first to make all such a things, then to finish all little holes and other on bulwarks, and, just before masts mount them I am not clever enough which way to chose Keep good work my friend

Is something wrong in next picture: while cutting grass think about job issues,and doing your job think about how to resolve some position on your build. Or we are wrong. Or too much dedicated. Very nice build we watch here. -

Rudder is finished, "only" to mount left And hinges will be "metalized" in something like dark bronze color, which can hadrly be seen on photos ( camera ...) This pictures were made throught the magnifier glass .... little more details, but it is undesired playing to get right focus Next is another two days in factory, two days of family party, and then She will be on line again- 4,152 replies

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.
