    Last elements before starting with the masting: the nets of the gangways. I used a cardboard holder of a suitable size, threading very thin cotton thread diagonally between the cuts and then using another thread in the opposite direction by tying knots in it
  12. giampieroricci started following HMS ANSON 1781 by albert - 1/48 - 64 guns and L'Amarante by marsalv - 1:36 - POF

  14. giampieroricci
    fantastic!!!

    What an incredible job you are doing, Johann! Your model should be taken as an example for all those who want to equip their own! Absolute perfection!!!

    I finished the figurehead:

    After a break, I started to prepare and set up the figurehead; everything is still provisional, I don't like it very much, I had to remove some details to make room for the bowsprit, but I'm going ahead and I hope it will be more presentable.

    A modeller friend rightly pointed out to me that there is an official drawing of the time for this ship. I looked everywhere except where I should have looked! Change of plan:

    I started to set the figurehead. I looked for an image that would fit and among many, I chose this one, to be adapted in the back to fit into the spur. The challenge is very difficult, I don't know what will come out of it, I hope to achieve something acceptable

    Thank you Joachim! For burnishing metals (I almost always use brass or, alternatively, copper) I use this product that I bought in the armoury. For the burnishing process, I prefer to burnish the metal parts after they are permanently attached to the model. First, however, it is necessary to treat the underlying wood with a coat of shellac to seal the pores of the wood and prevent the burnishing liquid from penetrating into the fibres and ruining their appearance with stains that are difficult to remove.

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.
