    Hello, I have a question about a paint that matches the same color as the copper plates from Caldercraft. I'm currently building the Pickle from Caldercraft and I'm busy with the coppering of the hull. In the building manual, Caldercraft advices the use masking tape at the waterline and paint a nice straight line between the waterline and the copperplates if you don't get a nice straight line with the plates itself ;). It looks great on the pictures in the manual so I think it's a great idea. But now I'm looking for the right color of the paint that matches the tile color. Maybe has someone here on the forum already did this with a good matching result? I'm curious what kind of brand and maybe paint number you used. Thank you in advance

    Hello I'm Ronald, 35 years and live in the Netherlands. I am a member for a while and I don't know if I already introduced myself, so here we go. The first time I checked in I began with the HM Pickle from Caldercraft, but life happened like with a lot of people and I lost sight of the wonderful hobby. But here we are again in 2019 and picked up where I left with the Pickle. Just finished the hull and now busy with installing the copper plates. So a short introduction, I don't post a lot of things but mainly read. But a introduction is always okay

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.
