    Evening all, a bit more progress this evenening - I firstly found out I had foregotten to put on the hub caps on the wheels - it was a bit of a pain as some of then where partly obscured by the side skirt, it wasn'y much of an ordeal though, next was part of the rear cage - this was painted while still on part of the spru, it was then dry brushed and fitted. OC.

    Evening all - yep its been raining so you can tell that means time at the bench, so I decided to attach the side skirt on the side where the track is on, after fitting this I was able to make and fit the rear mud guard, this was then painted a few coats of Nato Black the dry brushed White to make it look nice and dusty, then I did the same to the front guard - same paint/dry brushing, then I made up one of the thermal housings then painted/wash and dry brushed before fitting. Starting to look quite busy. OC.

    Evening all, firstly we took or poorly princess to have her post op check up - all absolutely fine she is healing very well - next appointment next wed. This eve I was able to do a bit more on the tracks - I painted the inner treads with the same Nato Black then it was wash/weathering time - the idea is to make them look quite dusty from off and on road use, after I was able to feed it along the wheels then attach the last link before attaching the rear drive sprocket. I think it turned out ok - certainly dusty. OC.
  22. Old Collingwood
    My pleasure Ken. 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.
