    Base coat down.
  12. RGL
    This one’s base would be terrible as a gun platform thus the Mk1
  13. RGL
    That’s the base done
  14. RGL
    Great story and what a find! Bet they were scrapped for metal

    Weathering the railroad track with pigments, then some splatters of oil. I’m happy with how this looks so far. Tomorrow I’ll add it to the base then put ballast around it
  17. RGL
    Railway track base coat down, weathering then add it to the base. Once I’m happy with that back to fixing some errors on the build

    I’ve just ordered some new heads and a figure as RGL’s infantry officer son says there should be spittle

    The track!
  26. RGL
    All together, the railing are a complete one piece print which are a paint and would have been better off as individual stanchions
  27. RGL
    Easy enough to throw togeather. Bit of sanding at the join of the deck and re riveting which I still need to work on as I’m not quite happy but I’ve obtained some resin paste which is UV light sealed
  28. RGL
    I got this off a Facebook Buy/Swap/Sell for about half of retail. It a very big 3d print. Missing was a traversing arm and bracket and some deck fittings which the owner of the rights to the kit was good enough to send the Stl’s which I got printed locally. It fits perfectly on an old base for a tribal class destroyer and I got a set of railway tracks to sit it on.
  29. RGL
    And I’m done, thinking of calling it “the Bollocking”
  30. RGL
    So the diorama idea so far
  31. RGL
    I think this piece is done. New hands arrived today.
  32. RGL
    I’m really not happy with the hands on two of the figures and will probably amputate them and replace with something a little more looking like hands and not plastic blobs. I’ll have black oil pouring into the engine

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.
