Dear all, after a long time I am in the workshop again 🙂 this is my new model Taka, kind of boat which has been in service till 1990's or so in black sea region of Turkey, mainly used for cargo or fishing purposes. the model will be a diaroma, so no planking below the water line. I applied some weathering to one side, later to be applied to all parts. Mehmet

Hello everybody I started my model "Çektirme", a classical coaster. These coasters have been in service for many years in black sea reagon for mainly cargo transportation between docks. due to mass usage of timber, production was abondened around 1990's. this type has both sails and an engine, typical of the ones in service around 1950's. I am finished with planking, some weathering is applied via coal powder. details are applied via pastel powder and brush. eventually all the body and the deck will be painted, so I used not much detailed weathering.

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.
