    Beautiful work!!!!! Why you used the iron nails? The iron oxidizes over time.......

    and here is the result:
  4. giampieroricci
    I tried an idea to remedy the problem of nailing garlands that does not conform to the drawings of the monograph, which some friends I have pointed out: Then I had a strange idea that in the end I think it has given the desired results: I tried to build the pins with washer using brass wire of 0.6 mm and thin brass sheet from which I got the tiny washers

    I made the iron arms that hold the beams
  6. giampieroricci

    thank you, friends, for your appreciation! @Remco: yes, it's just like you said: in this way, I have the necessary space, after having removed the small cardboard, to cut off the head of the nail @uss frolick: for my work I'm using pear wood for carpentry and planking, ebony wood for everything that is black and boxwood for the moldings. Probably I will use maple wood for the planking of the bridge but I'm not sure yet....!

    small forward: laying the battens on the starboard side of the bottom
  17. giampieroricci
    I started covering the bottom of the hold
  18. giampieroricci
    thank you very much, friends!!! I started to prepare the two courses of the battens "of the flowers" of the left side. A work quite long, since I've done all the joints by hand with a sharp knife.
  19. giampieroricci
    I finally finished the nailing of the courses of the topside and I have built a temporary basis to hold the model out of the yard
  20. giampieroricci
    Thank you very much Nils!!
  21. giampieroricci
    small forward: I finished reinforcements in ebony at the bow on the left side and nailing on the starboard side
  22. giampieroricci
    Meanwhile, I am continuing the bandage left side and riveting to starboard.
  23. giampieroricci
    Little progress:
  24. giampieroricci
    I finished the installation of the courses between the doors and started to finish with fine sandpaper to remove the glue residue and the excess of black cardboard. I also finished the edges of the gunboats and scuttles the oars.

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.
