    The old paint by numbers. Great idea for laying out your colors.
  2. Canute
    beautiful finish on a beautiful car. Well done.

    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.

    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.

    That's terrible. Not protected at all. I assume you will return it.

    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.
  8. Canute
    Your joinery is superb. I'd lean towards a blue shade.
  9. Canute
    Superb build and outstanding setting. Always a stunning build.

    Very cool, Greg.
  11. Canute
    Nice.

    That seat looks good enough to need all the safing pins and flags. Very nicely detailed.

    You may want to glance at both pages, since some drawings were re-done. And some a/g munitions had restrictions on rack locations. Some of the contributors are/were munitions loaders, so they have the info. Restrictions like for the Phantom, could not carry SUU-30 class munitions on the bottom location of the TERs and MERs. Ground clearance.

    It's looking good, OC. As you add more details, you can add additional weathering effects, if you think you need it. Too much weathering now and you'll live with it. Don't overthink it, mate.

    Interesting shot. That's some kind of "reacher" car to pull cars from the ferry without getting the engine onto the ferry. Next car is a baggage mail combine. Then two or three coaches, maybe unairconditioned, since there are no extensions off the clerestory roof. next to last car could be a food service car aka diner. Last car is first class, since it does show airconditioning ducts. And the shot is probably mid 30s or later, since that was when Pullman first installed airconditioning systems into passenger cars. I'm another model railroader who wanders into other aspects of modeling.

    Good tip, Craig. I have some slots in underframes I need to open up for brake rigging. And I do have a box of Swann-Morton #11 blades. Didn't realize they are thinner. Thanks.

    Didn't realize the tranny was bolted to the rear-end. Very interesting.
  18. Canute
    Not familiar with this builder, but the decals look attractive. Will this be a Bomb Cat or TomCat?
  19. Canute
    Interesting company, coming out of WKW. I'll be following your build.
  20. Canute
    Beautiful job, Dave. Well done.
  21. Canute
    I'm in, Chris. The shutters are looking good.
  22. Canute
    Excellent work on your detailing, Dan.
  23. Canute
    Another beautiful job, Rob.Thank you for sharing your techniques. 👍
  24. Canute
    Sharp looking racer, Craig. 👍

    Isn't that the truth. Kit hardware disappearing into the 4th Dimension on Monday, found on Wednesday while searching for a different widget. 😁

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.
