    Thank you all for the nice words..... It makes me feel that I have done it right ( also with the white spots on it ) I can always tell every one that's her age.....I get also white hair...... Now i can go on with the other stuff...... I was thinking why not planked the poop deck and place it ? I'm happy that I have not done it yet ! There should be 4 cannons under that deck !!! Pffffffffffff But again, thank you all and also the people who find that like button ! Sjors

    Upper gun deck is planked ! A strange thing but I have white parts in the wood. I have try to remove it by sanding and then 2 layers of tung oil on it but it don't work. So I let it this way. When all the fiddly stuff ( gratings , ladders , steering wheel and betings and more of that funny stuff ) are in place I think you don't see it anymore. Otherwise remember that in de early century's also the wood was not the same ( I don't know who told me that but I like it ) Between the planking I have make the false keel and frames of the 32 Ft Pinnace..... Mobbsie told me that those Pinnace 's are kits of them own. So for the price of one kit , you have 5 kits ( 4 Pinnace's ) Enough talking, time for pictures ! Sjors

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.
