Steven, probably rather expensive too. When I look at the price I paid for some 1/350 guns (vickers and such) ... I don't think I would like to pay the bill when I had 30 armless () rowers printed- 993 replies

Use an airbrush to keep the dust from settlin' down, Pat. That is some lovely work you have done on the gun, as did your 3D conversion friend.- 993 replies

Yes it would be a shame to have them put to work without the use of their arms! Or you pile them up with a sign: Up for grabs I think Pat has the gist of it. With some work I do need to write things down, like sequence of actions ... I have ended up with some parts I didn't expect

It seems to me you should go for the grey theme, and leave the brown as is ... easier for the administrators

Odd vaddoc, I do not have that, which theme are you using? It may be related. You could try switch theme, and find out

As Nick wrote: Glue, fill, sand, prime, [correct, prime,] paint. There is no way you'll be able to solve the gap problem without messing up your previous paint effort. My favourite youtube modeller (PLASMO) said in his Lamborghini Aventador build that he preferred to glue all parts of the body so he can avoid nasty gaps after painting and then glueing it together. It is nearly impossible to correct it afterwards. Incidentally, I have the same experience

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.
