    Those are Gorgeous pics - Thank you so much Yves, yep my late farther who used to work on them as well as others, told me they were basically two merlins with a lightweight body - the merlins in fact had a tendency to be to powerful for the frame, they had considered tweaking the engines for more horse power but there was a worry it would twist the frame, so they left it at just a spitfire eater. OC.

    I would have said to try some paper stuck to a board - draw some lines or shapes and like the old fill in pictures try your sprayer in the different sections to get a feel for 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.
