They look great. When I did mine I found them a little flimsy but more than anything I keep hitting them during the rigging process. I like what you did with them.

It has taken longer than I wanted for this next update. Still, I'm finding small hours here and there to get some progress.
For the last weeks, I have been working on the mizzen mast, where I has to make some alterations to make things fit, and on the bowsprit.
The details are in the pictures:

This week, I had a lot of time and get to progress on the bowsprit. I have added its sails to get an idea of the level of detail and test the ropes. I'm happy with the results and will continue with the rigging of the masts.
Looks great.
Good morning. Ooh she is starting to get busy. That is so cool. Very impressive. She is going to be a beauty. Cheers Grant
Good morning. Very cool hanks indeed. I see so many spindly little ones however these are full bodied and look pretty real. Nice. Cheers Grant
I'm still continuing with the rigging, and in the meantime, I have been looking into a plateau for and illumination of the ship. I have managed to find a mirror, replaced the frame and added a led strip. I will create a holder for the ship from plexiglas.
Good morning. The mirror makes for very interesting viewing- I like it. Cheers Grant
