    Hmmm, I could look it up in my destroyer book, but am currently abroad. I'll have a look when I am back home.

    I like the way the cockles turned out RGL

    I don't think it matters where they would stow them, Mark. When you consider the damage done on those ships ... splinters flying everywhere ... if not bomb fragments, parts of the ship would be flying around That's probably a leftover from the 1600 and after period ships. To avoid men from having the idea safety was an option during battle, and in that time to avoid splinters from a shot up boat to fly over the deck, decimating gunners NIcely done so far, RGL. "Just" one last tedious effort

    I wouldn't use acrylics 😉 Told you I'm lazy 😆

    I wouldn't have bothered masking to be able to paint canvas. A brush would have done the job just as well IMHO, or am I just lazy ...

    No Mark, that's the place where they stored their deck chairs. You wouldn't want them to sit on (partly) shattered chairs, now, would you!?

    Not to shabby mate, she actually starts to look like a vessel with some teeth (missing) ...

    Nice lockers, RGL. Lots of distinguishable detail.
  9. cog
    I hope not to many crossing from red to white and vice versa ...

    Never said camouflage is easy to apply ... even selecting the proper colour isn't easy ...

    Nice painting, I found that some tape works better against bleeding than others. Further more a q-tip rubbing the edges helped me to avoid most of the bleeding. Nice painting though

    strange dogs they have downundah. The one in front we would call a cat up here ... You wear a straitjacket too?

    Which is why you can build it faster if you use 3D printed parts ... where is the agony and headaches, the joy of loosing parts in the carpet monster's jaws ... the search for the missing "link" ...

    Yupz, still here, and sometimes there ... hope you are doing well, Chris

    Yes, send them over mate. Never enough of those items

    Oh slimey, using Mr.Surfacer, and sponge bob to give it structure. Nice touch. Enamel as from Humbrol, or do you stick to Tamiya enamelish? Nice going mate

    No oilcanning ..., not that the Roma would have much of it visible (if any), compared to the USN builds
  18. cog
    That's 35 cm!!! A huge ridge if you'd ask me.
  19. cog
    Don't prime it next time, or use black!
  20. cog
    What about "sitting ducks"!
  21. cog
    Back to your old tricks, ... beating it up. Those for ugly warts around the mast are winches? No 3D, or brass improvements for them?
  22. cog
    Hence , the change to flattops ...
  23. cog
    Maybe you can use putty to get that effect ...?
  24. cog
    You know what he is like, Pat. Especially if builds do not go fast enough
  25. cog
    same goes for the Roma

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.
