Longlegs55 builds ZHL Soleil Royal

foremast and bowsprit now fitted and some rigging done. small boats made and fitted. thankfully i found the jigs for making the small boats, just after i had finished them!! i was about to ask what the pieces were for but realised before i asked the embarrassing question to all you more knowledgeable modellers!!

Happy new year to you allIMG_20250106_154014.jpgIMG_20250106_154001.jpgIMG_20250106_154023.jpg
 
so, its been a while since my last post but i haven't been idle.

all mast are in (and vertical!!) all spars are fitted and i have made some progress with the rigging. i've also built a jig for the sails and am just in the process of doing the sewing before i "shape" them on th jig. after that its sail fitting nad rigging before the cannons, doors and other associated parts before any final snagging. Hopefully only another few months!!IMG_20250406_191050.jpgIMG_20250406_191058.jpgIMG_20250406_191109.jpg
