Ulises Sorry about that - I new that if I had followed the instructions it would have created that big problem with my Sergal Sovereign - You will sort it out I'm sure. FYI - since mine is mostly scratch built the Sergal instructions were of little use. But as you also "see" the Sergal build instructions are "assss" backwards. Especially after initial framing (which I of course followed) -- Now good luck perfectly locating the hull cannon door openings to the inside dummy cannon drill locations - that's another issue with Sergal's very poor construction instructions. You are doing fine work so far.

Patrick, PKD, Frank, EJ, thanks for your very kind words much appreciated. Finally working on the beakhead bulkwards. I have put this off for too long - mostly because I did not "get" how to correctly scratch the two sides, given that the lower deck support framings as well as the deck were scratch built. I think that I have it down now -- will post when it's all done. Thanks for your likes, comment, and or just dropping by. Big continued thanks as well to members that are following this project. thank you

Hi – have not at all visited MSW for what seems like a couple of months – yikes!!! Been busy with a new work opportunity that required a lot of seat time, new learning, re-certifications and a test Grrrr. But during my free “mental time” I only worked on the SotS –, doing almost nothing else - good therapy (;-)) During that time finished up the forecastle. Here are some images (probably too many). As always thanks for dropping by, likes, and comments. Next up the side support railings for the bowsprit deck….. OK - Now back to a more normal routine -- need to catch up and click likes at the great build logs that I am following here. Lot’s of catching up to do. Cheers,

moreplovac, Very nice indeed - thanks for the step-by-step instructions. Had not thought of Golden Oak stain (always used tea), nor cutting strips - excellent work looks very good. Let us know how the glued together strips hold up after much still needed handling of the sails. Your ship is also looking great; your rigging work and details are 👌. Regards,

You and Kirill are absolutely beyond any comparisons working in plastic - such awesome work. Wow!! Also, for me, I'm constantly learning, and will hopefully add some of the details to my work from reading your notes and other very knowledgeable builder's comments who are actively following this build. Cheers,

Peter, I really like this shaping detail - I don't remember if you covered that earlier - in any case I need to copy that 😉 . May I ask how you made that shape?

E.J INDEED - Love Lagavulin - my all time fave of the super smokies - Congrats on your new ship the Royal Caroline is a beauty - we've all seen amazing logs on this awesome ship - good luck - I'll be on-board as well. You are way ahead of me - I can only handle one at a time. 😬 but your thoughts make sense..... PS: your rope work looks great - I'm a bit nervous I don't think that I have enough of Chuck's to do my current build. I did not notice that he was dropping that products from his company, so did not buy any extra - yikes lol Regards,

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.
