    Fairings added
  2. RGL
    Because they will have fairings over them I wanted to get the gravity engines done so I can mask off. Using a black base then silver, with a purple, blue then red to represent heat
  3. RGL
    So this interior is now done, as you can see from the final image, you won’t see much
  4. RGL
    Time to paint the inside
  5. RGL

    Dryfit time
  13. RGL
    Done
  14. RGL
    And done
  15. RGL
    Final 3 figures. Lots of recasts out there, I’ve done as best as I can to buy from the makers, the chap holding the teddy bear (it’s supposed to be a sword, I removed the hands and replaced them ) first cast was nowhere near as good as the second one I’ve ordered. This stuff is not like Copper state models figures, it’s obscure and you don’t know what you’ll get, the bloke in the MOPP suit is fantastic, the sniper no so much. My plan is to have these down this weekend , then I can start to complete the dio

    Glad you picked up on that, both deliberate to add to the ramshackle
  17. RGL
    Thanks Pat. I thought that the survivors would need other modes of transport, so I throw a little motorcycle together
  18. RGL
    The kids! I still have 3 more figures on order, but dammit I’m close now.
  19. RGL
    The rescued! A pot of paint for scale
  20. RGL
    So the crew! And a bunch of kids to be rescued
  21. RGL
    Working the crew, about half done now
  22. RGL
    Today’s effort on the crew, getting there.
  23. RGL
    Painting the crew
  24. RGL
    Not at all gents, it makes perfect sense and that’s why I asked! I’ve decided to go with such sage advice and add some more thick get to ‘pads out’ the bow wave . Thanks boys. The white stuff you see in the foreground will dry clear and I’ve thrown some leave in it for effect.

    Ok, thoughts?

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.
