    Quite a colourful one for a warship ... she wouldn't resemble an IJN overly, but in the end most look a like, especially from a distance. It's as if those manufacturers have been looking to much at modern car development ... She starts to look like a ship Greg. Nice going. I am, though, curious to the effect of your AK blue filter Cheers ... hope you keep a steady hand after your beer consumption.

    Interesting, I would get bored with a slow build, and build a "quicky" on the side to fuel my interest

    Question druxey, just curious, but won't the silkspan loose it's stretched shape when it "hangs loose" I know water colours get wobbly if they hang in moist surroundings ...

    If you are using silk and want to stain it, use the lightest colour silk, and dark stains, go from light to dark, thin dyes, or stains will spread easily, like "wet in wet" in water colours. You could try to use liquid mask to counter the spreading, but I do not know if that will work. A somewhat thicker dye would be my preferrence, another option would be a decal you can iron on the silk or whatever tissue you will be using

    "I guess ill find out where the other one goes in time. " Probably where you would expect it to go. I'd advise you to go through the instructions, it would be a pitty if you got everything painted and ready and you had to add a final detail which the set forgot to include in the instructions ... Sometimes you can see it in the general overview pictures ... Better safe than sorry mate Merry X-mas

    Yep, running after all those tiny bits flying around, trying to give them an even spray and pressure them back to their respective places on the table It's a nice challenge though ... even without your spray paint the parts look real good!!

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.
