    Nothing wrong with that, you should have seen my first 1/48 kit the famous (for all the wrong reasons) Tamiya Sea Harrier, I even built Three of them over the years could not get any of them even close to passable. OC.

    Does anyone know how long you need to wait between spraying a Tamiya Laquer paint rattle can, and being able to hand paint a layer of Acrylic paint ontop, I know its safe this way round but dont know If I need to wait for the Laquer to Fully de gas first (no worries if I have to wait as I have other jobs on hand) OC.

    Evening all. some good progress today - first I worked on the stabs, they needed a bit of scribing then they were glued in place, next was the rudder - not much fuss just glued straight on, next I worked on the cockpit glazing this was masked using tamiya tape, I placed a larger than needed piece onto glazing then cut away the excess, after completing the nose glazing and rear section they were then glued down. Here are a few pics also showing my other spit (that wanted to get in on the photo shoot). 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.
