For me making faux rope hanks is fairly straight forward but getting the scale and sag of the loops is another bit of modeling while the lines are still somewhat moist. I do these in batches but each one is probably 10 - 15 minutes each. I don't always try to get an actualized amount of rope in the hank as would be present if brought down in reality. There are images of down loose falls on the decks of BN when racing that definitely show what is needed when actively in use and not tied up in port. You are almost there! RichThanks Rich! Once done with the foremast shrouds and rat lines, I will add the side stays. Then it’s time to make all the rope loops to put on the belaying pins. Then I should be finished! Then I can make the lighthouse and take pictures.
