Just noticed after giving them some time to dry - they will need another brush over with my Mig Flat Acylic varnish, airbrusing was better and a one off application, brushing it on seams not to cover aswel and still leave a few shiny surfaces, think the brush may move some of the varnish off areas and not cover them so well.

Evening all, more progress in-between a couple of chaotic days with the local water board coming and going taking samples of our drinking water as its developed a metallic taste and smell, they are testing it in their labs and put us on supplied bottled water until they fix the problem. Anyway here are a couple of pics of my Frenchies after flat coating. OC.

Superb work - looks like a real F1 car. OC. -
We all share so much in here - sometimes not just build related, well I view this site as my family, after doing some internet bashing I found out I have lost the last members of my older generation of my family - last uncle and auntie, only left now are my cousins who I do not have contact with as life for us consists of just the admiral our Yorkie and yours truly. Life can be frighteningly short. OC.

I have a few figures I do not need - British 10th Hussars x 3 includes one mounted with horse. Marshal Ney metal figure no horse as such but I could include and unpainted one. All painted weathered and flat coated same quality as my Waterloo dio build. Not expensive just lest me know if you are interested UK based. OC.

I'm back, I put a handful of figures mainly the 2nd KGL and Lunebourg and some injured on some bottles to hold them, then i mixed up a small amount of my Mig Lucky acrylic flat coat, and did a very thin brush coat, then dried then off slightly with the hairdryer, they will need a second coat tomorrow.

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.
