    I used Andreas thread since he said it would be OK to post topics here relating to CA and RS 1, and yes, hope to launch mine next spring. Kind regards Carsten

    Hi George, I think that white gloss is right. Gloss makes sense to me since it is easier to maintain and keep clean than matt or silk like texrures. I serched the web for photos of "the real thing" and found some of RS1 and some vessels of similar types, see below. My model. RS 1 A similar but smaller CA type The paint I used.

    I wondered about the same thing, but I painted mine gloss white to improve the look and texture, To me the plastic texture does not look quite right.

    Hi Andreas If you like the colour below you can try Bisrot mellombrun matt lakk. In reality it is a bit darker than what's shown in the picture. Carsten

    Yes sailing together could be fun, Sandefjord is not far away. My plan is also sea launch next summer, as now it is soon time for getting my somewhat bigger boat (22 feet) ready for sea. Could be nice to meet when things are a bit more back to normal. Carsten

    Hi Sundt. I am just building the RS-1 from a similar old Billing kit myself. In these corona times progress is picking up, but have generally been slow , started in Nov. 18 Status now is finished hull, remote control, deck houses/hatches, masts and booms. We could perhaps exhange experiences if convenient. I supply a link to a ppt building log you can look at if interested: https://cloud.elkjop.no/s/2061711a437d95546ce961935eb299f5107 Best regards Carsten Husøy, Tønsberg

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.
