    Very nice work on the sleeping car.

    Great looking weathering on the truck bed. Looks real. 👍
  3. Canute
    Nicely done, Dan. A significant development in early jets.

    This build will an epic journey, Kevin. I'll be following along.😃
  5. Canute
    Nicely done. 😁
  6. Canute
    I'm for the second option. Save wear and tear on your plaque. 😉

    OC, I think Gator Grip glue is available, but you need to email Kenny to get it. I'll second Alan's recommendation for using it. I apply the regular (thicker) with a paint brush. I keep a cup of water handy to clean the brush. And I let it tack up for a minute or so. Parts seem to stick well.

    I've had similar issues with clicking on the star. Should take me to just after my last entry/view. Sometimes it does (usually), but sometimes it just geets me to the page.

    Will be another great build, Greg. I seem to remember Gambier Bay was sunk off Leyte. Launched her birds to harass the Northern pincer. Ziggy Sprague's task group flagship? Read "Last Stand of the Tin Can Sailors" .

    Michael, sounds like the phone apps we have for model railroaders using Digital Command Control systems. Do you have room for a speaker? 😁
  11. Canute
    Beautiful work, Michael. What pressure can you use, if it's going to operate?
  12. Canute
    Nice one, OC.
  13. Canute
    Chris, that has everything but the kitchen sink in there. All that's missing is the wiring and tubing. WOW!
  14. Canute
    Sounds like an inertia system. We had them in the F-4 and I suspect most fighters would have similar systems. We have them in cars now, too, since most everyone has some kind of upper body restraint system.

    Nice work on the tins and you "other" diorama, Alan. 👍😁
  16. Canute
    Get well soon. You're both in our thoughts and prayers, mate.
  17. Canute
    Yikes! And it'll be well-done here. 👍

    Kevin, I like it. It fits in with some stories told by a friend, who sailed diesel subs early on in his career. After every cruise, his wife made him burn all his clothes, due to the odor. So, the look you achieved works, at least for me.😉

    I disagree, in a fun way, Javlin. The older fighters (early jet age and earlier) were almost all gun fighters, so yeah, nothing hanging off the wings except maybe fuel tanks.For Viet Nam and later, gotta have some missiles on the fuselage and wing pylons. An F-4 or F-15 with 4 heaters and 4 radar missiles, gotta love it. Even a Tomcat, with 4 buffaloes, looks fierce, at least to this old fighter guy. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and yours, gentlemen.

    Leopold is progressing nicely, Denis.You have that chocolate problem, too? It's a real burden. 🙄 merry Christmas to you and yours and have a Happy New Year.
  21. Canute
    Great idea with the ground up ceramic for desert sand. The car looks very good.👍
  22. Canute
    No rush. The holiday season is when many builds go in vacation. And congrats on the chair; I just got an an early present of one for the workshop, too.
  23. Canute
    As OC said. Looking forward to seeing more of your build.
  24. Canute
    Gary, this quite the performance. Bravissimo! 👍👍👍👍👍
  25. Canute
    No doubt in my mind, Denis. High sugar content does that to some of us. 😁 I just figured you had been captured by the Christmas elves and were incommunicado until after the Day. Nice work on Leopold, sir.👍

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.
