Craig I have been seeing more of that technique showing up on YT builds.I like the technique over just doing pre-shading of panel lines breaks up the color ever so slightly.I like the effect you accomplished in 1/72 it would seem as one moves of in scale more you can play. -
Well Mike it's hard to say a full white but it's real close look at how the forward gun projects itself on the building.Then their is a building behind the center of the ship a couple hundred yards looks white.I think if you go for this pic as your driving force for the build white with a touch of grey better yet find some other pics of peace time no matter the ship as long as Japanese Navy.

Mike I missed this one lovely details and the deck is gorgeous bud!!So what's going on with the build now rigging is not to be feared with something like EZ-line.Looking forward to the final dio.

I am sure it well EG.The only problem with the Dura-Aluminum was through handling and I guess the acid from the fingers it changes color like dingy hence the photos outside in good lighting (inside/outside) she's a beauty.Hey,I can just say it's weathered naturally -

I have to say this build was a pig paint wise and through the last little final assembly steps.The paint here in NMF is by far not my best I could almost throw it out but I do not have a Korean Crate in the cabinet. -

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.
