    I have finished the nailing. 7588 nails have been driven so far.....😄

    honestly, I don't really like the original coloring of the model. I prefer to use natural wood colors, but I finished my ebony stocks .....

    Thank you, my friends! Some step:

    Very complicated job !!!

    The knee of the head: a touch of color:

    Thank you all!! The helm port and the lower counter:
  7. giampieroricci
    The measures all add up. I just have to make a few small adjustments. I was particularly afraid of this part of the construction, which was not at all simple!

    some small steps forward: The wing transom knees: The sleepers: The counter timbers:

    what a wonderful model!!

    Limber boards and main mast step:
  16. giampieroricci
    I reinforced the frames that tended to detach in the upper part: The stemson: the keelson: The limber strakes:

    first roughing:

    after some time I have completed the laying of all the frames:

    a few more frames:

    I placed a few more frames. In this type of carpentry to be able to set up a frame it takes a lot of time! To give the structure more solidity, I thought of using some steel nails placed transversely at the base of the frames:

    and with this, I think I have finished the decorations of this elegant corvette!

    the figurehead:
  23. giampieroricci
    I don't understand: Why??
  24. giampieroricci
    While waiting for inspiration, the two mascon decorations remained pending; I decided that it was time to complete them and to make the figurehead as well.
  25. giampieroricci
    I started square frames. These constructions take a long time, each one is different from the other, each component has a different thickness, in short, a real challenge!

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.
