    Mods - quick question - why do some of theses longer posts not auto locate to the latest posting - Often I have to manulay scroll down to get to it. OC.
  12. Old Collingwood
    Loving all that internal detail - splendid work. OC.
  13. Old Collingwood
    Mark how about adding the first posts and going up to the first tops level either shrouded/channels or un shrouded but with the channels and deadeyes fitted. OC.

    Thank you for the very nice comments - yep I will get out my tiny brushes to paint the small details, will probably do the same with the PE railings that still need to go on, as I can not airbrush them when on and think the paint will be dameged from the handling with tweezers etc. OC.

    Evening all, hope everyone's holidays are going well - so I decided that one days tv and couch was enough so I did a wee bit more on Hood, there was some more ammo lockers and vents to be added including some rather nice resin vents, they will receive a few coats of paint next. OC.
  16. Old Collingwood
    Really nice work there Chris - those railings make such a difference at bringing all that detail to life. OC.

    Just found out we have a connection through our builds - HMS Penelope, HMS Lance and my HMS Aurora all served together in November 1941 in Force K - cool. OC.

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.
