    My local club is doing a 50 years of matchbox build which needs to be done by the end of May so I need to pause the other builds. I picked a very ugly kit.
  2. RGL
    So that’s the base coat of the camo done. I need to give it a clear coat next but, I have to start a different log as I have a club build to do…
  3. RGL
    So after hours of masking, the base coat. Touch ups then black borders to be done yet.
  4. RGL
    Masking. What a pain.
  5. RGL
    Are you going to raise the bow?
  6. RGL
    Yes, there are several configurations of engine and particularly exhausts.
  7. RGL

    Resicast were great, their site says they can’t ship to Australia but it’s sone type of glitch and we figured a work around. Going to need a bigger base.
  12. RGL
    Watch this space …..
  13. RGL
    OK, Resicast just dropped this, a US Artillery supply truck
  14. RGL
    Aaaand CZ Subs is going to do an upgrade set!!!!!! It looks ins to be a massive kit too.

    Last bit, the mobile base for the gun, I don’t think I would use this regardless
  16. RGL
    And a bit more
  17. RGL
    Because I’m in build mode, and I’m probably not going to use it but I’m throwing together the 8” howitzer as well. Lots of gaps and running repairs needed so far.

    I spent sone time last night looking at photos online, and sone have the pole in the awnings (usually stateside photos) and in Europe they are not so visible, it does give an idea mind
  19. RGL
    Finally, I’ve added the curtains that appear on every one I’ve seen. Paint next.
  20. RGL
    And later; the tracks, I just need to sand down these little injection ports
  21. RGL
    Next I’ve put off till last as I’m dreading it. At least they are only clipped togeather with no glue
  22. RGL
    So today I cut off all the remaining pieces off the Sprue and cleaned them up. every online build says the roof section has sink marks all down the centre. For once had a win and I had none whatsoever but I noticed Rock Lawler on his Propaganda site had put a strip down the middle to cover it. Made perfect sense so I did it as well and riveted mine in
  23. RGL
    It’s got amputation Written all over it.
  24. RGL
    I’ve got some very thin stuff used for 1/350 railings
  25. RGL

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.
