    Excellent!

    Thank you very much! The Hustler is a wicked looking plane. It just plain looks lethal. I had a lot of fun with this build.

    Thank you all very much for the comments, the likes and just for stopping by! The Pulaski Hustler is now finished: This made for a quick, fun build. It isn’t perfect, but I’m very happy with how it came out.

    Very cool!

    Looking good, OC!

    Thank you very much! The external stores are painted and attached. The rest of the model is done. Once they dry, I will seal them. The first coat of gloss coat on the base is drying. I will probably put four or five coats on it to give it a good shine.

    Thank you all for the comments, the likes and just for stopping by! Yves, The model looks much shinier in person. It actually looks like metal. The Pulaski Hustler is almost done. I apologize for the condition of my work area, it is a disaster, but I’ve been busy. The decals are on, but a small bit of detail painting remains on the aircraft itself, as well as some touch ups. The underwing nukes still need painted. The base needs gloss coated. The entire plane needs sealed so the decals don’t peel off later and the paint is protected.

    I think the paintwork on the plane itself is mostly finished. I still need to paint the external armament and apply decals.

    You did well with the scrollwork.

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.
