SPANISH GALLEON XVII. GALEON DEL AZOGUE [COMPLETED BUILD]

@Colin B, I'll heat them up, and squeeze them over a flat surface, to make them strait again, if it doesn't work out, I'll get new ones from the supplier.

Ramon, sorry for breaking into your log, BDW, your work is still very inspiring, thank you.

Hallo Ramon my friend,
you know very well, that i like your "style" making models very much Thumbsup
I have one question to the anchors you just installed. One the photo shown on Saturday (photo 1 and 2) the "iron part" of the anchor is looking darker, a light black or iron look, now installed they have a more rust-color - are you showing the anchors also slightly weathered?

Yes, I have rusted them. It is almost impossible that these anchors were not rusty
 
I have a question about older large ships as this, why did they carry two anchors per side?

I can see one on each side to use for one on port and starboard.
