This is an incredible build! Amazing work! -
Thanks Glenn. There’s an incredible amount of work and investment that goes into this, lots of design and redesign and I haven’t even began physically building it yet aside from what I’ve shown. It really adds another layer of admiration to the Winchelsea project as well as others such as the work Chris produces. JJ

Hi Matt, the figurehead was produced exactly as the figurehead for the Winnie. I provided a 3D model of the knee to @Jack H along with the rough dimensions and paintings of the contemporary figurehead and Jack did the sculpting work in Zbrush. From there the file can be produced into a real wood sculpture with a CNC machine. Keep following this log for updates on all the stern carvings as they are in the works currently. I’m finishing up the initial structure design of the model right now. I hope to be building the actual prototype by September.

Beautiful work! That looks so good with the pear(?) deck beams. Good luck with your move. JJ

Thank you Don. I think you’ll like it out there. Bend is growing into a destination spot but still has a small town feel and great weather year round.

Thank you Rusty! I should have some updates to the digital model soon. Thank you @rlwhitt. I recently purchased the Boss LS-2440, so far I’m very happy with it but of course I’m still learning the ropes and how to fine tune it.

This will be my last physical model update for a bit as I’ve returned to work which means I’m away from my laser. Before I left I just wanted a nice mock up of the basic Skelton so I cut the outer aft transom frames just to give an idea of the overall length and height of the hull. For the next couple months I will be “assembling” Part1 of the kit on my computer to make sure everything required to make the hull is included and fits correctly. This will also yield all my cut files for that part of the model. Stay tuned for updates.

Thank you Chuck! That means a lot. I’m currently working on the 3D assembly and cut files for Part 1 of the kit and will be posting updates soon. Thank you Fred! You Brits just built so many elegant ships that we can’t help ourselves but model them!😁

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.
