1669 Soleil Royal - ZHL [COMPLETED BUILD]

I completed the lower part of the foremast
I'll prepare and install the deadeyes on the top (not sure if this is the correct word in English; "hune" in French). I feel it will be easier to do this now.
Feedback welcome on this; need to see how to attach the lower deadeye.

Cheers

Hello
I have installed the shrouds on the main mast.

Once I completed those, I realized that I did a pretty poor job with the shrouds on the foremast, especially on the starboard side, the upper deadeyes being not parallel to the deck/rail, as you can see below.

I therefore decided to redo those shrouds....
 
Excellent work Gilbert. The foremast shrouds look to be in perfect unison with the angle of the deck railings. Well done!

Here's how she looks now

Next, I plan on installing the upper mast sections and preparing the yards (not sure if this is the correct word in English, please let me know); this will certainly take some time ...

Cheers
