    i normally use a matt varnish/ water based, and most woods are workable again within the hour, but i tend to dilute it a little on first coat

    Amerigo first , but the list at present is down to three, a nice big scale clipper, not found one yet the ferry Norland/Norstar by linkspan Linkspan Models but really fancy the Carrier Hermes, by Sirmar but just might be far to much scratch for me, plus the problem with me building aircraft, HMS Hermes (sirmarfittings.com) and as you all know i might change my mind again
  14. Kevin
    ty Mike, im enjoying this one its going to be a 1/96 carrier or same scale ferry next
  15. Kevin
    of course it depends on what it sells for, but seeing individual bits going at silly prices, i guess anything selling individual bits would recoup itself

    just seen this POCHER ROLLS ROYCE PHANTOM 2 SEDANCA COUPE. Missing Pieces in Description | eBay

    good afternoon everyone the afterpart of the Amerigo build up continues storage boxes once yellow have been put pack to wood, with a brass securing band companion ladders made up and now in place, they were a bit of a pain to look semi decent

    good evening everyone after deck awning stanchion the instructions, say 40mm bend 5mm and hammer flat the last 2mm and drill 1mm hole in the flat bit x 12 must be a better way, so i took 35mm bend 5 and added a pintle on the end by soldering x 12, these will be added to the build this week, lol i see so many snag hazards later on with the rigging, im going to curse this so very much i dont know what these look out posts are called, but again i have replaced gluing with soldering, there is not a lot of room for them, i will have to shorten the hand rail by a couple of mm NOT MY PHOTO, this is what i am trying to achieve
  22. Kevin

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.
