  3. RGL

    Masking and painting, dryfit’s OK. Weathering next

    Centre ventilation shaft and 50 cal stand, as well as metal shielding around the rear superstructure top deck
  8. 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
  9. RGL
    Back into Eskimo, I wanted to grunge her up a bit more
  10. RGL
    Nice detail, I think I got most of my references from the Facebooks
  11. 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 .
  12. RGL
    You know, I hardly even look at them.
  13. RGL
    I’m now back on this build, having received some splinter mattresses from Micromaster
  14. RGL
    A bit over a year later, finally an action shot of Strasbourg
  15. RGL
    Yes, I have 2 tribals to finish then a couple of Vendetta’s in 1944 and 1945 and a big project for the end of the year
  16. RGL
    Unfortunately it was pointed out to me it had t even made its maiden flight before Langley was sunk ! Somewhat of an accuracy issue!
  17. RGL
    Thanks all, done now! Off to the digital library
  18. RGL
  19. RGL
    Pretty much done, I’ll look at it with fresh eyes tomorrow
  20. RGL
    Downhill now
  21. RGL
    Some nice chains and anchors, and the clean up crew
  22. RGL
    And it begins
  23. RGL
    I’ve now done 99% of the painting and prep; these are the Black Cat replacement guns (the smaller ones are kit provided ones with the PE from Eduard and a replacement barrel. The three types of ships boats are from black cat and there is just no comparison.
  24. RGL
    It’s a Pitcairn auto gyro
  25. RGL
    I expect I can get Langley pretty much done over the next week or two; but here’s a new photo, the yanks first helicopter ship!

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.
