Advice wanted - best way to display trumpeter Bismarck 1/200
GrandpaPhil replied to AlShamed's topic in Plastic model kits
I have been placing my models on a wood plaque, like the kind you would get from Hobby Lobby in the wood craft section. I used to use the brass pedestals, but lately I have been making my own cradles. If you don’t have a set of lines for the model, you can use a contour gauge to get lines for the inside of the cradles. These are wooden warships, but I would personally use the same method for a steel 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.
