    Finish looks very real to me. EG, nice job.

    I was always of the mind that the only stupid question was the one you wanted to ask but were too afraid or too embarrassed to ask!

    @ccoyle Chris, what type of glue do you use in that applicator, post #12 ? I found that applicator in my local Hobby Lobby, tried to use Elmers yellow wood glue and disaster. Glogged it up good. Spent an hour with good ole isopropyl cleaning it out. Was intending to use it on my wood boat model. What glue(s) do you recommend using with it.

    I had a recruit in my basic training company at Fort Dix that one upped the Drill Sergeant who caught him dozing in the bleachers in the cold in February during a lecture on tear gas training/use. SGT : Private are you sleeping during my lecture ? RECRUIT: No Sergeant ! I was just checking my eyelids for holes ! The SGT admitted that was the best comeback he'd ever heard from a trainee.

    I don't know what scale your kit is but @Chuck sells a very easy to use grating kit complete with jig that is suitable for 3/16" or 1/4" scale. It's available at his Syren Shipmodel Company website priced very reasonably.

    I have that one also and use it interchangeably with the cordless version.

    WeCheer makes a very good cordless rechargeable mini which is compatible with the Dremel bits. Got mine thru Woodcraft.

    OC, you could try the stick method a lot of sign painters use when painting a company name on their glass doors/windows. I would get a 1/4 or 3/8 inch diameter Maple (or other hard wood) dowel, put a rubber tip on one end, start with a 24 or 36 inch length, trim to comfort. It should be long enough to span your diorama and rest the rubber tip on a work table surface. Hold the other end with one hand , rest your painting hand on the stick. I've seen professional sign painters use one and it's amazing how steady they can be.

    Yes Indeed ! Hot tongue and Cold shoulder for dinner ! 😉😊😇🤫
  23. Jack12477
    Looking good !

    OC, try taking a Probiotic. The antibiotics kill the good bacteria in your gut. You need to replace them.

    Nice simulation of a parge coat, OC.

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.
