Yes they do looking great. I also love the way they turned out.
I will also recommend to change the long guns,they also incorrect If you talking about OcCre Santisima Trinidad

Send me PM when you will consider to buy them.

Cheers

Thank you
It's huge but as it's going to my costumer i'm not concerned about space.
But in my home i also don't have space for those big models.
I'm saving the space for specific model that I want to build

I see. But now you've made me curious. Which model will it be that you want to present in your rooms later?:D

Best regards

Hello all ,
I'm so busy starting to fall behind the schedule.
I almost finished to work on the ship and then the mast spars and rigging.
Ladders fanders and fictional rails IMG_2411.jpeg

And me after almost 16 months of build about 420 days and something like 2000 hours IMG_2409.jpeg

I still have to do the longboat the lanterns and some minor fixes.

Till next time
Cheers
Guy

The next phase begins the masts and rigging

And mounted on the ship but not glued yet

And after i placed them ,the shrouds are tied on all of the three masts (fore mast not in a he photo)

And the first dead eye on the fore mast

And now only 47 dead eyes for the shrouds to go

Cheers

Dear sevish! The lanyards in the deadeyes of the shrouds and stays should be the same color as the shrouds and stays themselves. Yours are black, so the lanyards should be black too. The color of standing rigging depends on the impregnation of the ropes with a special composition consisting of fats, resins and other additives. The impregnation protected the ropes from water. Consequently, the lanyards in the deadeyes and the deadeyes themselves were also impregnated.

Thank you for the insight.
I can change it but that's not the problem, I have other considerations to think about how much of the ropes I'm willing to change (commotion build issues).
I'll see.
Thanks
