    I decided to do a bit more on mossie as the tv was rubbish, so I thought I would have a go at the props and spinners, these are a Three piece unit considting of the prop a backing plate and the spinner cap, first I cleaned up the prop and discovered it was a bit to thick and lacking shape, simple adjustment by samding it to reduce its thickness while also giving it some shape. I then dry fitted it. OC.

    Hi all, thank you for all the likes and comments, so while waiting for the paint on the fuselage to harden, I decided to do a bit more detailing on the wings with shading and highlighting to give it a bit of realism. OC.

    Here is a pic off the net showing a flight of new Seafires (Mk 11's I think) they were delivered to Lee on Solent where my dad did some of his service. OC.
  24. Old Collingwood
    Im sure my late farther told me something about this - it was quite a rare event as Lee on Solent airfield only had small runways so to get something B17 size land there was quite a thing. https://www.iwm.org.uk/collections/item/object/205147231 OC.

    I had to have several looks to see it wasn't wood - very good job. 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.
