    Strange French pronunciation ... I would expect "Denise" or /dəˈniːz/

    bring you salt streaks all the way from the deck level down, not merely below the waterline, it doesn't look real. Salt is left on the upper hull as it washes from the deck or scuppers, and when the water evaporates it becomes visible as a streak. It builds up during time and can take on a real stalactite type form. Have a look here (from https://www.straitstimes.com/) Not a fancy example, but couldn't find something quickly

    Is that all you broke? Try drilling 200+ portholes with 0.5 carbide drills. Good effort though. Love the way those jaws turned out with the leather.

    Steve, Nice progress, have you taken into account that sometimes you need to have a bit more weight on one side than on the other, due to the hull's "deformation"/not being equal on each side. Probably wise to number your jars according to their position. You can fill some up completely, and others you can partially fill to get the proper trim

    I wonder if they ever used naval colours at al Jason. German planes passed most of their time above land

    Nah, will have to get into that after Seydlitz, toddler

    Thanks, Lou. I still have another one of these kits, probably make it a flotilla leader, which implies a lot of kit bashing ... First things first though. Did you hava a good holiday?

    which is very expensive, all resin models are unfortunately
  21. cog
    Very well done. I really do like your display. In all a build which was fun, creative, and educational. Thanks for sharing
  22. cog
    AT this scale, colours should be lighter to make the objet look farther away, so actually your choice is quite good!
  23. cog
    Dennis, more like jumping jackies. Steve tell your daughter well done, that's not an easy feat, especially with the railings
  24. cog
    Thank you for the likes! Those are quite energising Thanks Mike. I got myself some enamels from AK which made life a lot easier on the weathering I am quite pleased with how the cam came out, Denis, still some points of improvement though ... what was that about critics ... No pressure at all, Pat. At least not yet. You first need to get all the parts before we turn on the thumbscrews Gotten rid of the jetlag? Back running around yet?

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.
