    She's looking great Tom, I know exactly what you mean, it kinda pulls you in, they are a very friendly bunch in there though 😊 I'll look forward to more updates on Niagara and your B-25👍😃

    That takes me back to being a child when I used to hang all my 1:72 planes from the ceiling with fishing line😊

    Thanks, must admit I've stalled on Triton as I need some more wood but can't get it as the budget won't allow. As for Winchelsea I'm still fairing the hull and it is a BIG hull😲

    A lot of people do them red ochre, my carriages on Sherbourne are red. My two pennies worth!!👍😀

    Thanks 😊 I've already got a card Tiger I to do Jack, just waiting for the card to get here. I did look at a Sherman or a kubelwagen with some sort of gun in tow

    Hello script, I'm going to sit in on this one!😀👍

    Yipeee!!! I've finished the dauntless! Today last bits have been glued on and the decals put on. There may be some paint touch up to do but that's it. I'm happy with the final product, but the Admiral has said and I quote "I don't mind a ship or two but I'm not having any bloody planes knocking about" so in a box it will go to be forgotten in the model graveyard of the loft.😕😕😥😭 Thankyou all for hanging on in with me and all the comments, likes and off build conversations 👍 it's been a fun change from wood and I will definitely be doing another although I don't know what subject matter yet, but don't tell the Admiral 🤫 So the photos: thanks again everyone who has followed or looked in, stay safe and Cheers 👍😉😊😊

    welcome to MSW

    I do buildings when my grandkids school projects require it but also used to scratch wargaming scenery in 28mm and 15mm scale. I've still got some terrain builds in a box in the loft. If this carries on I might start making more as I don't need to buy materials for it, I just use cardboard and other stuff that would usually get thrown away.

    Good job, looking forward to more updates 👍😉

    Are you sure they won't be needed in case the people rise up because of lockdown??😆😉
  21. Edwardkenway
    Thanks OC. Yes it was last bit of the canopy and I'm surprised the first bit of this kit I've dropped! But at least it doesn't look to out of place without it.😏
  22. Edwardkenway
    They look fine nell bombers😊👍, have to say my favourite Japanese aircraft are the val dive bomber and the kate torpedo bomber .
  23. Edwardkenway
    Many thanks CapnMac. This first plastic kit I've done for 40+ years and I got to say they are much better now with the fit.
  24. Edwardkenway
    I'll have clothes on under the clear coat so it doesn't cause offence 🤣🤣 Thanks Kevin, Some is freehand some I did cut up bits of masking tape. Thankyou both for your advice👍
  25. Edwardkenway
    I was able to get into the workroom today and got some more done on the dauntless, basically there is only the decals to go on. The canopy painting went ok, not brilliant, definitely won't win any prizes for neatness but it's passable. (Except the rear piece which I broke when I dropped it on the floor then stepped on as I got up to retrieve it 🤬) Thanks for the kind words and likes. Cheers 😁👍 Before go I have a question, can I put a matt clear coat on before the decals or after?

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.
