    Yep slowly getting used to them - not done any model work yet though. OC.

    Great new project Craig looks like it will be a Stunner, bad news about your manual - cant think why Royal mail would be so slack, its a shame you do not have Waynes number or address the guy from chasing cars (I know it sounds like a dumb idea but he was a Ferrari specialist) and just wondered if he may have had a spare one knocking around. OC.

    Lots of extra magnification is the key (was) when painting my figures, the hardest was painting the Red White and Blue on the French Shako cocades (those small round disks under their plumes). Looking forward to what you do next - Market Graden would be cool with the Paras - I used to know an old timer who was serving over there at the time - he was dropped over by a Dak with his chute. OC.

    Could get the I gallon Red bottle and if you do not want to drink the wine first - leave it in and build the scene in a "Wine World" yes that was wine world not "Waynes World" OC.

    What an Excellent video, wonder if something like that could be made (minus the ships) then pushed through the neck, if it was less mass or deep, with the ships made and pushed through and placed after. OC.

    As Dan says - you could use a fine drill bit the same thickness as the leg extrusion, you can get sets of very fine small modelling drill bits. OC.
  25. Old Collingwood
    That is true that is brother - I remember my late farther telling me when he was serving on a base if he was not repairing or poilshing something - he was told to "Go Paint Something" 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.
