    I now have a few days off, time to get this finished
  2. RGL
    I’d also like to thank @Egilman for his excellent contribution to this build. Absolutely fantastic support from him. coming soon
  3. RGL
    Finished!!
  4. RGL
    Ok, pretty much done. Talk about a project that gets out of hand . IMG_3829.mov

    So my first figures. Learnt a bit but I think the quality of the figures makes it look better than my skill set.
  6. RGL
    Yes, I know there are British figures, I have 1 American and I only intend on using 4. In f they are rubbish I won’t use any. I’m never going to be a figure painter

    I wanted to add some more boxes
  9. RGL
    I would like to use this one
  10. RGL
    Figures. If I can paint them OK I might use them but I’m kinda starting from scratch
  11. RGL
    I got a base made up, I’ll spray it gloss black then place the ships and boats like a diorama but I don’t want to use water as I want to show off the undersides and it’s massive and it will never store anywhere, so once I show it later this year I can disassemble it
  12. RGL
    Done
  13. RGL
    No I haven’t forgotten, the little motorbike painted up, then covered in dust. I’ll add some oil leaks and that will do.
  14. RGL
    So nearly there. I have to fix up the lights on the lorry and learn how to do figures but if the are not good enough I won’t use them. IMG_3697.MOV

    No mate, it’s like being a little bit pregnant with this one, it would either cover the whole thing or nothing.
  16. RGL
    So the extras (dandyfunk) to add interest
  17. RGL
    Second last part, equipment
  18. RGL
    Thanks, that makes sense! The base was made by my local men’s shed for the price of 2 packets of Tim Tams. Then cut in 2 for practical purposes.
  19. RGL
    So this is where we are up to so far IMG_3662.MOV
  20. RGL
    That’ll do
  21. RGL
    So this will be the concept for my artillery convoy
  22. RGL
    Another dust coat and I’m done
  23. RGL
  24. RGL
    Wheels are on. Nowhere near finished but progress at least
  25. RGL
    Weathering begins. Undercarriage thick mud and grass added to the lowest points. Once it dries I’ll add dust effects

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.
