    I have been given the Mamoli Victory to build. Unfortunately, the first instruction sheet was missing. I managed to get a scan of their "Table 1" but I am missing the "Table 2". I am hoping that someone here could help me on this one. Thanks in advance.

    I really would love it if other kit manufacturers would try to build the model from the kit. Every so often, I come across something that makes me wonder - did they actually try to do this?

    If you are airbrushing, Tamiya acrylics can be thinned with standard hardware store lacquer thinner. A lot cheaper than Tamiya thinner. This also works with Gunze acrylics (Mr Hobby). Don't even think about trying it with any other acrylics unless you like a big gooey mess.
  24. GrantGoodale
    Very nice build. Did you build the case yourself?
  25. GrantGoodale
    Did AcrylicJob also provide the base? I am working on one for my Royal Caroline and it will have to be 36" x 27" x 12" - rather large.

    Well done. Whoever invented wood filler should be up for sainthood!
  27. GrantGoodale
    Those old kits are starting to resurface these days. I am currently working on a resurrection of the Billings Danmark (3 of them!) Best of luck
  28. GrantGoodale
    That is some serious equipment. Very well done.

    Very nice work. I like the look of the decks. For more info, go to http://combinedfleet.com/ HTH

    For those who want to do this version in 1/350 - good luck. To the best of my knowledge, the 1/350 is the 1941/42 version. As for the wood colour - they used hinoki cypress and not teak. FWIW
  32. GrantGoodale
    Great work - thanks for sharing. I am working on the 1915 version with the Trumpeter photo-etch. I think that I might chicken out with those torpedo nets
  33. GrantGoodale
    Many thanks for the info.

    I am working on the Panart Royal Caroline. They include a brass sheet with various bright work: I am used to working with photoetch but this one has me stumped. The green area is raised. It seems to be a paint coating rather than a peel-off layer. How does one work with this? I was given another partial Caroline kit and it has thin laser cut wood: How do I go about dealing with this? (Sorry for the crappy photo) Any ideas will be very much appreciated.

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.
