The futtock shrouds are done next. Here is a brief process. For seizing i used few lines from unwoven thread.



''









The futtock shrouds are turned around the futtock stave and seized to the shrouds in three places.







Fore and main topmast shrouds are installed next.







Happy modelling..

Удачного моделирования ..

На грот-мачте не могло быть шерсти. Иначе как работать с косым гротом? Woolings on masts were used if the mast was made of composite parts. On the brigantines, the masts were made of a single piece of wood, so the woolings were superfluous.

We can blame Aleksey Vikulaev for this .

 

[Alexander74]

В этом можно винить Алексея Викулаева .

Возможно, но только отчасти. Викулаев имеет петли только в нижней части грот-мачты. А их всего 2, высших нет. Что тоже технически неверно.
