    The carbon fiber looks very good. Nice subtle effect. 👍

    Good looking build, Yves. Color and finish are well done. In smaller scales, manufacturers use scribed sheet for the side panels. Achieving a tight joint where 2 sheets abut is a mark of good construction technique. Your fitting is spot on.
  3. Canute
    Well, it was PBR.
  4. Canute
    Rich, what scale is this build? 1/48 or 1/32? Either way, looking very good.

    The picture was taken on 11-28-14, scratched just above the photographer's initials, W.B.B JR. Over on the right side, bottom corner. Somewhat newer equipment.

    Kind of a typical limited run kit with no registration pins and questionable fit. I have an Amodel Firebar sitting in its box, awaiting another session of fettling the two engine pods onto the multi-piece wings. 😜 Keep on plugging away, Alan. 👍

    Mike, take a look here: https://www.cybermodeler.com/hobby/details/sac/detail_sac_48068.shtml Cast white metal replacements.I used a set for a damaged F-4 model. Your scratch gear turned out great. Looks like it would work.

    Wonder what Elsie the cow thinks of this gizmo? 😁
  9. Canute
    Second Class compartment looks great. Third Class looks pretty dingy comparatively speaking.

    Nice showroom quality model, Craig.
  11. Canute
    Good work with the Evergreen shims. Those older resin kits can have issues like yours shows, Spiff. And the German soldier is looking good, too.

    Glen, this has been a most educational yet entertaining build log. The Longhorns and Canadian penguins add a lot to the story. Thanks.👍
  13. Canute
    I second EG. Whatever way you can figure out to accomplish that job is fair.😄

    A B-36? The Aluminum Overcast? There's one in Dayton, OH at the AF Museum. There once was a cargo version, the XC-99. It sat parked out in the infield at Kelly AFB, TX. Don't know if it was preserved. Immense aircraft, both of them.
  15. Canute
    Do you drive it or launch it?
  16. Canute
    That's quite a selection. And your choice wold be a cool one. 👍
  17. Canute
    Outstanding technique, Craig. And yes, the flash really makes it pop.
  18. Canute
    I'll follow along, Yves. if this car came from NY State, it was probably American Car and Foundry. a conglomeration of 12 or so smaller car builders. Looks like a beautiful build.
  19. Canute
    Could applying a liver of sulfur solution be used to darken the brass. It doesn't stain wood.
  20. Canute
    Those are some long-lived trucks. This will be fun with droids.
  21. Canute
    Will be an interesting build. Sharp looking car. Chip Foose cars are really attention getters.
  22. Canute
    Well done, Paul.
  23. Canute
    WOW!
  24. Canute
    Here's hoping for a speedy recovery, Nils.
  25. Canute
    Nicely done, Alan. Suitably grubby. 😁

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.
