    Added some details such as support struts and splinter mattresses. Not 100% sure on the breakwater configuration behind the hedgehog
  2. RGL
    Bridge, extended bridge wing for 20mm cannons,
  3. RGL
    By late 1945 the A turret had Ben replaced with a hedgehog, and the B turret with a 4” gun with metal skirts. The underside of it from all my research appears to be closed in.

    Nearly done; Zulu needs a single Pom Pom
  5. RGL
    Well done Craig!
  6. RGL
    And we’re back, two final 1945 versions
  7. RGL
    So nearly done, just awaiting a 4” gun in the mail and a few Other guns (still in development).
  8. RGL
    Railings added. Nearly there
  9. RGL
    Not that I’ve seen or on the plans, it may have been a snob slip type paint. one gun and the railings to go!
  10. RGL
    and nearly there
  11. RGL
    Yep, be pretty crap in a heavy sea too! I value added to the davits and starting the place all the items that take forever to paint.
  12. RGL
    Pretty sure they’re manual, not the ready use shells on the edge of the deck
  13. RGL
    And filling in the gaps
  14. RGL
    Superstructures glued on
  15. RGL
    So everything is now painted, let’s get some glue on!
  16. RGL
    And how they look in 1/350
  17. RGL
    The final pieces in the paint cue…..
  18. RGL
    Wow
  19. RGL
    Superstructure dry fitted, painted and weathered.
  20. RGL
    Masking and painting, dryfit’s OK. Weathering next
  21. RGL
    Centre ventilation shaft and 50 cal stand, as well as metal shielding around the rear superstructure top deck
  22. RGL
    Funnels done, lots of extra details needed, but it appears by later in the war the little platform on the smaller stack had been removed
  23. RGL
    Back into Eskimo, I wanted to grunge her up a bit more
  24. RGL
    Nice detail, I think I got most of my references from the Facebooks
  25. RGL
    I’m painting up some 1/350 Pom Poms at the moment, the level of detail is offensive! I’m sure he’ll scale them down .

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.
