The head rails of a ship have got to be the most complex area to deal with .  I keep tackling other aspects of my build but I know I'll need to address them eventually. This I know for a fact.

Built & De-Commissioned: HMS Endeavour (Corel), HMS Unicorn (Corel),

Abandoned: HMS Bounty (AL)

Completed : Wappen Von Hamburg (Corel), Le Renommee (Euromodel)... on hold

Current WIP: Berlin by Corel

On Shelf:  HMS Bounty (Billings),

Do a search here for "Berlin by Corel" and you'll find the build log for the "Berlin" by Maggsl_01 in 2016 (I think) and scroll until you see how he made his head rails. Study the photos closely and compare them to your plans. 

I'm currently following Pete Jaquith's build log for the 1847 Topsail Schooner Eagle for my current build. Those logs and photos are an incredible source and visual aid that are an amazing way to help you realize that it's not as hard as you think!

P.S......Thank you Mr. Jaquith..........!!!

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.
