    A few more second planks fitted. Looks really scruffy on film. Peregrine sat astride Endeavour to get the shot of the bow. The uneven walnut colouring of the second planking adds a strange difference to the hull but I am going with it.

    Second planking now being continued. Bit scrappy at the moment but a final sanding when finished should smooth it all ok.

    cheers for the comments...the smallest ship I have taken on and probably just as challenging if not more so than my previous corel builds.

    the only thing i am changing is the second planking width.....going for 3mm planks instead of the kit 4mm planks

    A little further on with Peregrine. I always try a little furniture as I progress. Staircases not fitted yet. I am using all the cast metal fittings with this kit to see how Corel intended their finished article to look like..warts and all. The castings aren’t that bad actually, just need a few touch ups.

    gun ports looking spot on....i had several issues with my gun ports which is documented in my build log, but yours are coming along nicely.

    Canons placed on the deck to get a feel for how they will look.

    yes...corels fitting can lead you to drink......keep going with her...it will frustrate and annoy but will eventually reward you..

    A little more deck planking.

    fixed some of the second planking and a start has been made on the deck planking too. The white metal capstan isnt too bad a casting....will need some filing and paint but should look ok. A metal primer will be applied before any paint
  28. harlequin
    is the correct answer....I never get too hung up on mistakes....i like my builds to have knocks and scrapes on them....a perfect looking model ship looks too sterile and soulless....you are now part of your Victory and it tells your story of the build......looks fine to me.

    hi from Lancashire.....i'm a former paratrooper that likes ships....I know...unusual....get yourself a simple kit and give it a go....you really don't need too much kit to begin with.

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.
