    Start of second planking, looking forward to it.
  4. kiwiron
    Trying a couple of deck planking ideas.
  5. kiwiron
    For sure, It was only looking at other builds to know how it should look. 1mm out with the inner stern makes a difference.

    Galleries done, not my finest work, but I've never said I was any good.
  7. kiwiron

    Hi Bikermart. Before you go too far with the second planking check other Victory posts around the keel where the beading line is. I'm sure the first planking should go to the stern rubber post and to the keel. Not sure if it makes sense, Check out you tube Paul Vickers Victory.

    Thanks Popeye, good to be back. Start of the first planking.

    Dry fit of gun ports, glue on once dry.
  17. kiwiron
    Top gun port. Red pins to get the curvature of the bulkheads.

    Great build. I am just starting mine, thanks to all for your help the tips are invaluable, Ron.

    Looking good Bob, when you get to deck fittings use the plans for measurements not the colour booklet. I got some Caldercraft rigging to replace the hairy Occre stuff.

    Fantastic work Robert, I've just started mine. Ron.
  21. kiwiron
    Trimmed bulkhead 1 hole before gluing to test bowsprit fitting. Thanks to others for the idea, before it was too late.

    Wow, Congrats James on a fantastic job. I hope to do this later when released. So far i've done a couple of fishing boats, the Supply and Endeavour. I'll fill in until then with the USS Enterprise aircraft carrier, Tamiya.
  24. kiwiron
    Nice work Popeye as usual,fishing boats are still my favourite.

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.
