    I think whats halting me is yes mojo has gone for a walk, but also I'm a bit ott over how much electric will be consumed using my LED table lamp/hair dryer and air brush compressor, I have gone a bit ott over saving electric consumption in the house where as before I was a liitle less worrying. OC.

    Morning all, My next plan (when I can kick my but) is to get my dio on the table and place somemore of my figures down after cutting their base plates away - many will be in the orchard and some on the road. "Where did I place that mojo injection thingy - bob......." Keep the faith all OC will do it........................some time soon. lol. OC.

    You have done well with these Two, I have the Mig Dust/Dirt I dry brush it on my figures, the splatter tech is something I have not tried (guess it takes a few tries to get a feel for it) OC.

    Looking really nice mate. OC.

    Excellent work with the sprayer Kevin, really came out nice, Vallejo Surface Primer is ok on figures as it shrinks down onto the plastic, but its also quite fragile and soft - it scrapes away too easily, and it leaves a slight shiny surface that makes colours a bit difficult to adhere to. OC.

    Indeed Kevin, The say the cap for most is going to be about £3000 + a year thats about £300 a month compared to under £100 a month we was topping up - crazy times. OC.

    Not sure when I will be back on this - I will be honest I have been frighten'd by our price increase in energy - gas and electric, they estimate it will be 300% more each year, that has led to me to become a bit OCD about using electric things around the house - especially my modelling lamp on my bench, we have even stopped using our cooker - only using our microwave for meals now, and even the kettle for drinks I have started only boiling a bare min for our cups. The increase in power charges is Ridiculous. OC.

    My late farther used to work on them along with Spits, Hurricane's, Lancs, Short Strirlings. 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.
