WowGood afternoon friends.
Thanks for the kind words and likes, as well as to those who just stopped by.
I made the stays and elk stays of the foresail and main masts. I set them in place and made a snake between the forestays and the moose stays. Such a snake exists only in these places. I knitted it to the stays using a regular bleached knot. Results in the photo

To do a riggen as that, you need experience. That was why I sent out standing riggen instructions -not finished yet - not to make it too big, still missing parts 2 and 3, but due to the EXTREMLY high response- 4 -Hans -up -out of 15000, I have decided not to send the rest -apart from the member making Endeavour- I am very HAPPY that so many members can do the standing riggen correctly and in the right orderVery good work on the rigging - it is looking really good
Hello friends! Construction at the shipyard continues every day. Here are some results of the work. I completed the installation of the forestay and moose stay on the mizzen mast. Installation of mast level standing rigging is complete. The model looks like this so far

Thanks Heinrich. Glad to see you back. I hope you are fineExquisite work, Sasha. Your Victory is altogether in a different class!
Uwek, good afternoon. thanks for the praise.Very good work - either the rigging but also the rudder hinches and copper sheating.
Maybe you showed it already once, but how do make the nail pattern on the copper sheats ?
- looking very realistic and also in scale -> so high quality....
Many thanks for the informationUwek, good afternoon. thanks for the praise.
The copper plates were purchased and already had this pattern on them. In the second photo, where the rudder blade is still black on one side, the shelf with these plates lies on the table. She can be seen below the photo
This company makes them only in 72 scale.Many thanks for the information
Interesting, especially it is very good quality with the nailing pattern also inside and not only at the outer edges correct for more "modern" sailing ships -
where do you purchase them?
Do they have also sheating in dofferent scales and patterns?
