    Had a few days off, as even using Microset the admiral could smell it said it got up her nose like a vinegar smell, so I thought best not at the moment till I can get good ventilation like every door and window open. Cant wait to crack on with it though driving me nuts just being on the laptop hearing all the news so fed up with this virus already. OC.

    Why dont you put a thing strip of something along the whole length both side to cover it? it could represent a re enforcing point. OC.
  9. Old Collingwood

    Thank you Denis. OC.

    Its good stuff and lasts as it only releases a small amount, the tube can block but if you put a thin needle down it with the end bent over or worse case heat the end of the tube with a fine flame like a candle / lighter it releases the glue again. OC.
  15. Old Collingwood
    Good to see you making a start Revell do a very good plastic glue called Contacta has a fine metal tube so its nice and tidy. Pic off the net. OC.

    Thanks Ken, because I am worried (more than I will admit) I have been reassuring the admiral that all will be ok and we will get through some how almost like magic, and it will all return to normal, but I went very down missing a family member to reassure me. So i wanted to try to shrug it all off go on my build and just carry on - but I couldn't. OC.
  17. Old Collingwood
    Thank you for that, I did try as Im trying to pretend if I close my eyes it will all just have been a dream. OC.
  18. Old Collingwood
    No progress today not really in the mood to be honest, Its been one of those days lots of worry about getting the supplies we need, the admiral has been rough with a tight chest due to worry and stress (she has a heart condition as it is). Im sure I will do more on the mossie. OC.

    Microset and Sol are little bueties arnt they - so impressed with how they settle down a decal. OC.
  20. Old Collingwood
    Thank you Denis, I think I will be ok with Revell's Contacta cement as it does not give of fumes when it dry's. OC.
  21. Old Collingwood
    Thanks Ken. OC.
  22. Old Collingwood
    That looks Stunning Kevin - really nice work. OC.
  23. Old Collingwood
    Thank you kindly, it was just a case of being steady and working under good light. OC.
  24. Old Collingwood
    Anyway life must go on - models we all need to build - I continued the restore job on the cockpit - just paintwork even created a few more painted frames - just about finished I think - next job to mask up and spray the fuselage around where the cockpit sits. OC.
  25. Old Collingwood
    Thanks Mark, it will all be down to how careful I can be with the painting and placing of the canopy and final fixing down. 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.
