    Stunning work on the rigging Michael just wondered if you know that there are a set of sails for the Vasa . If you look on the Cornwall model ship site they sell them. I have fitted them to mine and they don't look to bad . BV

    Grabbing the seat on the front row and have got a bag of popcorn, looking forward to this Hennie BV

    I must agree with Ulises I don't think that filler will fix that the best way to go is to buy a much simpler kit or do a part work with comprehensive instructions so you can cut your teeth on getting the hang of how these kits come together . Hope this helps BV
  6. BLACK VIKING
    Wow absolutely stunning BV

    Looking forward to your build Hennie I built the Deag Sovereign a few years ago as I am really interested in 17c ships. On the go at the moment is the Vasa from Corel and the Solie Royal on the back burner so really interested in what you are going to do to her BV

    I used a three shift pattern on mine and it looked ok not to busy unlike the four shift I used on the Sovereign. Hope this helps BV

    Lovely work on the planking. Just a thought you could use a sheet of Perspex with the hull sitting through it with water affect on top and you could see the hull underneath. BV

    Hi Anton I have built the Deag Sovereign and they didn't say why the red band on the lower hull ? So can't help you out on that one cracking work on your Sovereign by the way BV
  11. BLACK VIKING
    Wow that is one warped keel , there is no way to build a straight ship with that. Looking forward to seeing your fix . BV
  12. BLACK VIKING
    Wow well done on finding that out before you cut out all the gunports as that would have been a nightmare:-( . Looking forward to seeing your next update. BV
  13. BLACK VIKING
    Coming along very nicely Pucko. Nice idea with the templates for marking out the gunports a lot better than the Sovereign of the seas as you had to measure every one. Great work. BV

    Lovely start Greyhawk really looking forward to to seeing this come together BV
  15. BLACK VIKING
    Wow stunning work Michael the attention to detail is brilliant BV
  16. BLACK VIKING
    Those planks look a lot better. Hope you get over the flu quickly and looking forward to seeing your your next update Happy Christmas BV
  17. BLACK VIKING
    Hi Mr Pucko the good thing with Deag is they supply a lot more wood than you need. Having built three of their kits I have lots left over BV
  18. BLACK VIKING
    I would definitely ask for a replacement pack Pucko . I know it's only the first planking but its not the quality you should expect BV
  19. BLACK VIKING
    Brilliant news Daniel can we have a link to their website BV
  20. BLACK VIKING
    Very nice work Sjors I must admit I built the belfry but once placed on the deck it just looked to big so made my own BV
  21. BLACK VIKING

  22. BLACK VIKING
    Thank you all for the help and advice we have now got it sorted BV
  23. BLACK VIKING
    Hi Donln if you want a ship that's not to hard to build the San Felipe from them is a nice start I have built it and it looks brilliant when finished BV
  24. BLACK VIKING
    Wow that's brilliant Neptune thank you very much now off to look for some chess set Cheers BV

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.
