    Thank you so much, Albert, for your help. I actually missed that passage in Boudriot's Band.

    Loving work. Keep it up! Andreas

    Hello! This kit reminds me of when I built the Alert. Therefore, I'm following your build with great interest and am curious to see what you create with the kit. I wish you continued success! Andreas
  25. Cpt.Barbossa
    Admirable work, which I follow with great interest. Thank you very much. Andreas

    Hello everyone! Thank you so much for your kind words and interest. 😉 The construction of the frames is progressing well. I have a quick question for everyone. It concerns the infill pieces between the frames that have a drainage groove. These positions aren't marked on the plans. However, I assume the A'rtésien also had them. Is there a specific arrangement or position for these drainage grooves? Source: La Vaisseau de 74 Canons J. Boudriot Have a great weekend everyone! Regards Andreas

    Hello everyone! Happy New Year 2026 to all! 😉 The frames that have already been made have been sanded to size at the level of the sternboard. Now it's time to make the remaining frames all the way to the stern. Regards Andreas
  28. Cpt.Barbossa
    Hello everyone! Thank you so much for your kind comments, I'm very pleased and motivated! I've continued transferring the waterline plan. The frames have also been transferred to it, the sheer board has been cut out, and everything has been aligned. This (hopefully) provides a good foundation for setting the frames. I wish everyone a happy new year and good health! Regards Andreas

    Thank you so much for the kind and encouraging words, and I'm very grateful to be a part of this wonderful forum! I absolutely love this hobby and enjoy being able to share it with you all.

    Hello everyone! First of all, thank you so much for your likes and interest. Chris, thank you for your motivation. I found your work on this excellent, as well as your entire build log. Continuing with the cleats, which are now finished. For a first attempt, I'm very happy with the result. The finishing touches will be done during sanding with the frame. Regards Andreas
  31. Cpt.Barbossa
    Hello everyone! Thank you so much for your positive Feedback:) The eight forward double frames have been completed. Before I continue with the frames, I want to finish the bow section and attach the sternpost. So, it's time for the cleats. This is my first time doing this; let's see if I can manage it properly. Regards Andreas
  32. Cpt.Barbossa
    Hello everyone! Here's another quick update: Frames 1-31 are finished, and frames 1 and 2 have already been pre-painted. Best regards Andreas

    Mike, thank you so much for your praise and your interest in my project. This is the second ship I've built using only the plans. My first scratch-built model was the La Vénus in 1:72 scale. You can find a link to it in the first Artésien report. Regards, Andreas
  34. Cpt.Barbossa
    Hi Tobias! Thanks so much for your kind words. Tackling the Artésien in 1:36 scale was a great decision 🙂 I'm really looking forward to seeing your progress again. Best regards, Andreas
  35. Cpt.Barbossa
    Hello everyone! Thank you so much for your likes and your interest in my project. First up is the construction of the double frames. Best regards Andreas

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.
