    Deck ventilators added, catapult and crane.

    Roma’s focsle. I need more work on the painting yet as I’m not quite happy. The ventilators are fantastic and need work to bring out the detail at this scale. I’ve added paravane chains and the anchors. I’ve also added aftermarket paravanes to replace the rubbish kit ones.
  3. RGL
    Thanks, they fit in well!
  4. RGL
    Ventilator mushrooms and ammo lockers
  5. RGL
    I’d like to thank the admins for what they do. Great work!
  6. RGL
    Well done mate!
  7. RGL
    This is what I was talking about, covers a heap of radius and cheap
  8. RGL
    Nah it’s stuffed. Get yourself a set of jewellers mandrels, they are cheap and will last for ever. I use them all the time and they are 90% cheaper than the PE Rollers
  9. RGL
    The mushroom ventilations, once I get the configuration correct I can paint and place. So much small detail required now!
  10. RGL
    I’ve mainly finished the central piece, I need to do up a rolled canvas dodger and then the thousands of mushroom ventilators
  11. RGL
    Getting there; the plan is to finish the centre section tomorrow
  12. RGL
    Starting to come together now!
  13. RGL
    After a full day, ready to do the rigging on the mast.
  14. RGL
    The bridge. Minor alignment issues
  15. RGL
    So this afternoon I removed the main armaments from the 3D lattice. Once tidiest up and painted they will look amazing
  16. RGL
    And some weathering
  17. RGL
    Redone. I’m happier now.
  18. RGL
    And it starts again
  19. RGL
    Nup, not happy, I’m going to remark and make the pale grey much lighter.
  20. RGL
    Base coat of the splinter camo done. Filters next.
  21. RGL
    I think Pontos and Infini give Flyhawk a run for their money as they probably a generation ahead of them. As to 3D, it’s a new art; I won’t get into it as I couldn’t draw anything and I’m happy for others to do the heavy lifting
  22. RGL
    So this afternoon’s work!
  23. RGL
    So I’ll take the dogs for a walk then start masking the whole deck again and all the dark blue bits.
  24. RGL
    Fixing the bleeding
  25. RGL
    Painting the bow, white, dark red, red then pink. I need to finish off the bleed through, then completely re mask the whole thing

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.
