    I'm about to start painting my Midwest Chesapeake Flattie and was wondering about priming it first. I have some light grey Tamiya surface primer but it says for plastic and metal on the can. Can anyone tell me if it would be suitable? Or if not what I should use.

    Great pics of an immaculate build!

    Wow, reading through builds like this I'm not sure whether to be inspired or just give up! Great work.

    As I understand it the Cazador Xebec, or Jabeque, was a Spanish ship of around the 18th century, although Occre have a misleading comment about Xebecs being in the second siege of Gibraltar as its only historical detail. As such what lengths would the deck planks be and what kind of butt system would be adopted? Also, am I correct in thinking there would be no joggling? Darren

    Interested to see how it goes. I am at the start of building the Occre Cazador. Your decks look good. That's the next step for me following their instructions. Do they always suggest planking the deck before hull? Is this unusual?

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.
