    WAK doesn't seem to be a kit company for the noobies.

    How's that trip down the rabbit hole going, Greg. You might need another prime mover.

    Looks like more of an eggshell/satin, Gary.

    Nicely done, EG. That's a lot of back and forth, making these design changes. Will love to see this as a 3D print model. The various branches of the model building world is adding products almost daily.

    Phil, we are here to help. 😄 The SLUF was the jet I wanted to fly after I got my pilot's wings. The AF chose another career path for me. 😉 That model came loaded with weaponry in use in the late 60s/early 70s. Very nice. My Phantom had 4 Sparrow radar missiles and the nose mounted cannon. Pretty bare bones. Nice work on the antennas and sensors.

    Phil, that looks like a Vought factory model, given to new pilots checking out in. I have an F-4E, looking very old. Very nice of you to restore it. The gray scheme is one of the later schemes for the SLUF (Short Little Ugly Fella). I do question the SAC markings, since these were tactical aircraft. Active duty bases were at Davis-Monthan, AZ, Myrtle Beach, SC and Korat, Thailand. And there were numerous Air National Guard bases. A-7s were at Korat to replace the USAF A-1s that were being retired. They flew Sandy missions as part of the combat search and Rescue (SAR) missions. Looking forward to your refreshing the old girl.

    Nice work on the Titanic, Paul. Ahh, the mighty 'ood. This is a great source for info on HMS Hood at https://www.hmshood.org.uk/

    Turned out very well, Tim. Nice job.

    I'm in on this build, too.

    The multi-function display screens really bring out the high level of detail in this beauty. And it's all stock. Wow.

    What is the media used in the tumbler. I have an ultrasonic cleaner and a tumbler I use for cleaning cartridge brasses. The ultrasonic uses several liquids depending on the task. The media tumbler uses a variety of cleaning/polishing media, like corncobs and walnut hulls.

    Most printers can print both letter sizes of paper. The paper tray is adjustable , but you might have to also make an adjustment via the printer's software controls

    You lose a finger some place? 😁

    That discarded pelisse looks very good.
  15. Canute
    Fiddly bits for sure. Nicely done.
  16. Canute
    Well done, turning this old kit into a very nice build.

    Super work on that early MiG. The Russians seem to like vivid cockpit colors, like the turquoise in some MiGs and Suchois

    This old WSO hopes you do this great bird in an air to air configuration. I moved a lot of mud, dropping assorted weapons, but my heart is always in air to air. flights.

    The old paint by numbers. Great idea for laying out your colors.
  20. Canute
    beautiful finish on a beautiful car. Well done.
  21. Canute
    This reminds me of a TV show I used to watch, Orange County Choppers. They did custom build theme bikes. I'll be following along, too, Rob.
  22. Canute
    You guys have your hearts in the right place. I feel the same, since all but 1 of my 5 dogs over the years have been pound saves.
  23. Canute
    That's terrible. Not protected at all. I assume you will return it.
  24. Canute
    Quite the show. Somebody was a huge Richard Petty fan, even had the Petty blue paint nailed. 😊

    That last is a very interesting shot of barrage fire.

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.
