1/35 Challenger 2 TES Rye Field Model RM5039
Edwardkenway replied to Old Collingwood's topic in Non-ship/categorised builds
That Gorilla brand is good, their wood glue is also excellent, and the CA gel stops even me gluing my fingers to the model 😉 Can't wait to see turret interior detailing and the new kit! -
I agree with Matt, in my humble amateur opinion, both W1 and W2 look fine, no!, more than fine, I would be happy with either version, but we all find faults with our own builds, that others may not see. I know if I built another Winnie I would use liteply, not mdf, for the bulkheads, for ease of cutting and fairing. At the end of the day it is your build and if you'd feel happier doing mk3, go for it. Btw the white hull looks good and you have W1 wood so best of both🙂

I found the British TV show Called Battleground and hosted by Edward Woodward. I got two of the battles wrong, they were Gettysburg and Battle of the Nile, not Bull Run and Trafalgar. I also took some years off me as I was 13 not 8🙄 that's what happens when you try to recall events from 43yrs ago They did six episodes and they are on YouTube

Some 40 + years ago there was a tv show on Saturday morning in England that refought famous battles in miniature, the ones I remember best were, 1st Bull Run, Waterloo and Trafalgar. The tables must have been 10' × 20' and the miniatures were always fantastic, basically it's what got an eight year old boy into proper wargaming instead of setting up knocking down games. Mark do you happen to know the name of the show? I'd love to see it.

Yes this and the time and manpower expended attacking Hougoumont, which was doing exactly what Wellington wanted it to do, presenting an obstacle to any attempt by the French to outflank the allies. Typically the French tried brute force of the massed columns against a veteran unit of the Guards who knew the destruction platoon volleys could do. Despite high casualties in the first assault the French just kept feeding the men in.

A very fiddly hour and it now has two headlights, Note to self : be more careful with tiny parts 🤔 painting the camo next. Thanks for the likes and comments everyone 😉 Cheers -
I want a good modelers saw
Edwardkenway replied to Roberts Orca's topic in Modeling tools and Workshop Equipment
Hi, if shipping had not priced it out of my budget, the Byrnes saw is what I would have bought, after all the comments and recommendations on here and elsewhere I would say it's a no brainer if you have the funds. Just my two pennies worth. 🙂 -

Thanks gentlemen 🙂. It's ready for painting the camo now all the bits are fitted, although I do have to fashion a headlight as one shot off into the abyss of dropped parts 😒 Thanks for the likes and comments. Cheers -
Fantastic work Tim, some complex rigging! All in all, she's looking stunning 😁

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.
