    Beautiful job on those landing gear, Dan. Paint work looks fantastic.

    What a chore! Came out great, Rob.

    Have you seen a fellow by the name of Stewart post his MFH builds on Facebook? It is amazing to me the quality of his work and the speed at which he works to finish his models. If you are inclined to do so, I highly recommend joining the "Model Factory Hiro Builds" group on FB. There is so much to learn there and so many great MFH builds to be seen. A place where you can meet and ask questions when needed.

    Great looking engine compartment, Rob. Very realistic in this scale.

    The fairings around the head rests are what I’m missing, waiting for Tamiya to provide.

    Thanks Yves. I am very pleased with the yellow paint and it’s the first time I have tried this particular brand. Scale Finishes. It’s the first time for me when yellow covered so well without many coats. Scale Finishes uses DuPont Xalta enamel in their line of paint colors. Pick any car make and year model and they can color match every color used. In theory, this yellow is an exact match for the 2010 Porsche Carrera GT in Signal Yellow.

    Over the past days, primed and painted these yellow body parts. Will allow an additional 7 days cure time despite the fact the parts spent 8 hours in the dehydrator. I’d rather be safe than sorry. Sadly I learned I either misplaced or lost three body parts. Tamiya USA came to my rescue and will be sending me the missing parts gratis. Darned great company,Tamiya. Outstanding customer service and products.

    Ding-ding-ding - Winner Gary got it right, it's a Barred Owl. More commonly known around here as a Hoot Owl.

    I'll try to look it up but at this time I have no idea. I can hear them a lot, but this was the first time to get a clear photo of one.

    With warm weather returning ( for the time being) and a local IPMS Regional show coming up in April, I am bringing my Porsche Carrera GT project out of mothballs for some paint and body work this week. I hope to finish the model for the upcoming show.
  33. CDW
    Totally agree. Stunning body work.

    On this most loverly day, a special tune for all my pals

    I've become spoiled with the iPhone. It's a much more simplified process to photograph and post updates to MSW with iPhone.

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.
