kpnuts got a reaction from druxey in Bugatti Type 35b by kpnuts - Italeri - 1/12 May 4

I have a story for that, a wealthy banker stored it in a barn at the start of ww11 so the Germans didn't get hold of it and maybe died or went abroad and forgot about it.

Hi all more done to this, did the exhaust with a combination of pastels and paint, quite pleased with how it's coming along, doing the corrosion on the water pipe with a combo of talc and pastels ground up (need to get more texture on it yet, may use a bit of salt)

I didn't look for one tbh I got this one cheap in lidl and thought on a whim I would make it a whale tail to match the workshop managers car.

Hi all sorry been away for a while (got sidetracked by my art for a while) but I'm back now.
Our workshop manager has one of these but his has a whaletail (how hard could it be i thought) well let me tell you it's not easy as it seems this is my final try at it (5th go)
His car is in copper metallic so that's what I went for, his engine and gearbox are different too so some changes required there too.

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.
