  1.    popeye the sailor reacted to a post in a topic: 40mm/56 Twin Bofors by oneslim - FINISHED - scratch diorama by Bob W
  2. jrsiii50
    Hello, I'm interested in putting together a Bofors quad mount diorama in 1/32. I realize yours is scratch built. I'm thinking about getting 3D printed models from Shapeways.com in the right scale and populating with figures from the same site. I'd like to include the quad mount in a tub, a single 20mm Oerlikon and a Mk51 fire director. These were arrayed in a relative compact area port and starboard on the main deck just forward of the number 3 turret on BB-55. I presume I would need some photo etched parts as well (gun sights, shell casings, shells and clips, etc. for both 40mm and 20 mm). Any comment, advice or guidance from you would be most welcome.

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.
