Evening all, more work after having a day off - I have been populating the top of the turret, I started with the main sight its comes as a unit with a few parts including the clear styrene, again to shade this I painted the rear of the clear with a few coats of Red, then fitted the doors, the top/doors is just dry fitted until I mask up the glass area. I have also been adding some other fittings to it. OC.

Evening all, I managed a few more hours on this today - I decided it was time to offer the lower and upper hulls together and glue in place, there seems to be a slight moulding error as the lower is slightly thinner than the upper, so I worked from the front hull first getting glacier plate lined up and glued, then I worked my way towards the rear and the engine bay, again a few slight errors of lining up so it was trial and error till I reached a good half way stage. On the one side above were the skirts will be a top hatch side piece was showing a recess so this needed to be filled with putty and sanded. All in all not too bad - but the lining up miss match under neath is a surprise. 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.
