  3. RGL
    What?
  4. RGL
    Wow, looking at Big Bertha beside the Takom Morser!
  5. RGL
    So the concept is to have 2 soldiers collecting trophy’s oblivious of the refugees
  6. RGL
    This actually comes with a roof which I won’t use
  7. RGL
    So this is where we’re at; tractor taking Morser
  8. RGL
    So black and then brown chipping, and a brown wash
  9. RGL
    I’ve send you images of the instructions
  10. RGL
    Most of the big bits aren’t glued, only glued the control levers today after painting them for ease of access. I can take images of the instructions if you want

    Well that’s the base coat done. This goes together beautifully and tomorrow I’ll get a clear coat on before I start weathering
  12. RGL
    Getting some paint in the Fowler
  13. RGL
    Well that’s the build of this done, there will be a fair bit more weathering yet but I want to get the tractor together so the colours of the dirt dust and mud are the same
  14. RGL
    So today some paint. Base coat down weathering next
  15. RGL
    So I’ve now made the fun up, nice piece really
  16. RGL
    The Eagle-Man is an absolute treasure with this research. Love it.
  17. RGL
    I must admit I’m tempted to build one
  18. RGL
    Yes, that’s him, from Romania, he does great stuff but it’s damn expensive with our exchange rate
  19. RGL
    It’ll probably be about 20cm long when finished. It’s very nice, I ordered mine from the maker via facebook. I’ll paint a lot of it before I put it together due to its complexity. If that’s yours above it’s one of the few builds on the Internet!
  20. RGL
    So first off is the tractor, a couple of hours cutting it off the frets and sanding.
  21. RGL
    Whilst I wait for some stuff to finish some other projects, thought I’d do a diorama! set at the end of WW1 where the Germans had to give up 5000 artillery pieces
  22. RGL
    Well these pieces are done
  23. RGL
    When I got the fit out stuff Simon sent a couple of 1/72 pieces
  24. RGL
    I’m actually not finished, ……
  25. RGL
    Nah, I usually just give them away

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.
