    Another way it could be put "well i'm closer to the kettle if I'm model building - Want a cupper dear"?????? OC.

    Was this from one of Airfix poly bags (some were not put in boxes but were in a clear bag with a stapled piece of card along the top) dating from the 70s? if so I too have built one of these as a kid. OC.

    You should do a Dio with some of your tanks Patrick - they would look Superb. OC.

    Know what I would do with the fresh decals - put one over the join line in the flight deck - great way of covering that join line. OC.

    Thanks for the link brother, i'm here now, I feel your pain with vision mine has gone quite quick - I used to have to use reading glasses with a prescription strenth of just 1 I'm upto 4 now, but to model build I still need magnifiers ontop of my glasses. OC.

    I'm not sure you know, but doesn't matter either way as I have seperate magnification, it looks tidy - no leads apparently recharges off an internal battery from a USB lead. OC.

    Yep indeed Jason Type 45 HMS Dragon - much much larger ship. OC.
  25. Old Collingwood
    I have seen Dragon in real life - they debated wether to remove the motif but decided to keep it. 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.
