Hi all,
I'm creating the leather pirate ship, and have finally gotten to the point where I'm ready to start rigging.
- Ship is built and weathered.
- Mast are in, not counting the spars.
- Deck furniture and such are in and secured.
Given that I've never done any kind of model ship, I've got no idea what order to do the rigging. I can easily look up YouTube videos, but I don't know many of the actual terms to look up.
So, two questions.
1. Should I attach the spars and the bowsprit before starting the rigging? (Seems like I should)
2. What order should I do the rigging in? Is there a website you could referr me to?
Thanks in advance.
