    Next is to put all this things into my boat. I had to start with the servos. After that, I had to construct a bracket for the engine. And fix it on the right place in the boat. Nico

    The last piece before I start with the electronics is the lamp. I could order two pieces for the Riva Aquarama (KricKshop). In combination they look like the real lamp: The pieces on the Riva Aquarama: Nico

    The cross-hatch pattern is easy to do: The finish is done with varnish for cars. Before I have done a undercoating with Acrüpox in 3 steps, painting and sanding (3 times). The last time sanding was wet with a corn of 1000. Nico

    At the moment there is no electronic in the boat. I fixed the motor only to see, how the boat is looking, when it’s completed. But I have some pictures of the motor and the provisional installation of the servos. Nico

    Hello Greg, No, it was no kit, I could buy the motor over Ebay. I think it's a very rare piece. I never saw it again in Ebay and it's also not possible to find some thing about it in the internet. I am very happy about this motor, it's just the correct one for my boat. Nico

    Hello Michael, My English is not good enougth to explane the whole process. I have found a link where they are talking about Nibore. I think it's the same thing. I ordered my Nibor powder in Switzerland. http://www.balesmold.com/nibore.htm Nico

    Next step: I will nickel-plate the frame of the front window. The first thing is to polish every thing. After that I had to clean the parts with sodiumhydroxide 10 % and hydrochloric acid 10 % After this procedure I put every thing in my NIBOR bath to get it nickel-plate. Together with other parts my boat is now looking like this: Nico

    @ Carl, the material of the window is Lexan (polycarbonate). OMG means "oh my god". Next things are the curtains. I use the same cloth as for the canopy. By the way the Riva Aquarama scale 1:10 (Gallery of COMPLETED Scratch-built models) is my boat. I was driving the boat, while Roger took some really nice pictures. Nico

    Next thing is the roof itselve. I willmake only a dummy. Tho whole one would give big sausage of textile. Nico
  24. penichette
    To catch the holes in the frame of the window, a roof is just the right thing. Nico
  25. penichette
    Thank's for the compliments. Next thing is the windshield. I am using a messing profile for the frame. But first I will post once again the building of the windowpane. Nico

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.
