Montañés by Sevish - OcCre kit

Hello again, progress update
After long month i finally finished yards and furled the sails and even to hang some of them.

Tried my best with OcCre's sails , water was my friend here.

And all the yards

And attching the sails i needed some vantage point.
From one side my wife shouting me that I will brake the chair from,from the other side my daughter shouting me why she need to take picture of me, and i'm just hoping no missile alert in this crucial moments.

Finally I finished to rig the masts and yards
I did some changes to the rigging to match some of the Montañés reference photos,
but to save some time i worked with OcCre schemes.

From your views, it looks like a wonderfully done rats nest of ropes going every which way but loose.

You have done a great job with all the rigging and work on sails.

Great work on the Montañes. When I start on the ST's rigging, I'll also use yours as a guide.

Thank you very much
The rigging on the ST was so frustrating but I'll be very happy if my rigging will help you with your ship :D
