    So I’ve done up a machine gun to add to the dio then I saw this; a Minenwerfer, it is a beautiful resin kit that I may or may not add…

    Absolutely marvellous mate!

    I think that’s my civilians done for now. I’ll obviously have to change some dirt tones later when I place them in a base

    I’ve made a start on hand painting the figures. Being civilians I wanted to mix up some colours. One I get my base coat down I’ll give it a clear coat before weathering

    It’s 1500 ks to Rocky from Canberra! No ship will last that trip and your summers are a bit hotter than ours! for the rest of you, it’s this far!

    I think most of us here who have done tall ships realises that it’s all about the sequence of rigging. And it looks great afterwards. I use denier line all the time, but I’ve never used fishing line, what type do you recommend?

  14. RGL
    It’s a nice kit!
  15. RGL
    Clear gloss coat gives it a little depth….
  16. RGL

  17. RGL

  18. RGL

  19. RGL

  22. RGL

  23. RGL
    Wow, looking at Big Bertha beside the Takom Morser!

    So the concept is to have 2 soldiers collecting trophy’s oblivious of the refugees

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.
