Jolle, your details are outstanding and your weathering is superb. I can see why Model Warships and ION gave you the medal. Well done.

You can use an external DVD player, connected by a USB cable. But yes, a printed booklet is always welcome.

Shadow box for model railroad - FINISHED
Canute replied to kgstakes's topic in Non-ship/categorised builds
Nicely done. 👍 -
I'm in, too. My F-4 squadron in Germany had a visit with the Italian AF squadron of the same number, the 22nd. Great deployment, excellent home cooked pasta and an Italian white wine. Tragedy struck the next day when their squadron commander decided to do a departure flyby under the low hanging clouds and took all 4 jets into an Eifel hillside. We were all destroyed by this disaster. A very bad day. R.I.P.

Floquil Marine Colors
Canute replied to Capt. Kelso's topic in Painting, finishing and weathering products and techniques
Very good to know about the color matching, Kurt. Thanks. -
That side looks very good, Yves. This was state of the art for the 60-70s. Lasers were just entering the workplace back then. Hospitals and the military were early users. We needed smaller, faster computers to effectively control laser cutters. If you can draw up something in STL format, a laser cutter can use it to cut your patterns.

Floquil Marine Colors
Canute replied to Capt. Kelso's topic in Painting, finishing and weathering products and techniques
There are vendors selling Floquil paint. Google is your assistant for them. Although I suspect the Marine colors are even more scarce than the railroad colors. You could also look at Tru Color Paint, an acetone based paint. It has some marine colors at: https://trucolorpaint.com/military-ships/ They're mostly for airbrush, but they do make brushable formulations.

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.
