It hardly smells so you may like it. It also spreads like whip cream.

Michaels also has great acrylic artist paints that in my opinion are better than Tamiya and Model Expo and come in a wide range of colors. They are Liquitex Acrylic Basic Fluid (professional artist paints). When you use them they don’t leave brush marks and are very reasonably priced ($6.99) and you always have a 30% coupon. If you look at my Bluenose  log you will see how nice they are.

Thanks to all of you for the kind encouragement. Will lift anchor in the AM and start boat cleanup. Will post photos in my log when finished.  
As Always Best to all of you!  Rick

Got up this morning and started sanding the filler and then primed it with Liquitex Gesso which is a superb primer and also available at Michael’s.  Reefed my sails and am sitting back and enjoying the day.

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.
