Run out of 1.3mm black rope/thread ordered some more so this is as far as I go for the time being.

Got my rope so back to it 
Done a couple of hours this morning same stuff I'm afraid, had a change round in the shipyard yesterday and bought myself a new slip for when I start the sovereign of the seas

some more progress, the seizing takes time ( but I'm getting quicker ) so done the last 6 for the mainmast.
This is just like watching a shipyard build a real one Brian. Totally absorbing as well.
Tim I'm glad your enjoying it all comments are appreciated
Just added up the time spent on this ship build with a short break its 20 months

Mainmast stbd side shrouds are done.
Port side done.
Awesome display of model making expertise.
She's getting more and more sensational every day. Bravo Brian
Out standing Brian.
Cheers Paul
On to the mizzen mast
Seizing the .75mm rope is more difficult than the 1.3mm rope and not too keen on them but I know they have to be kept too scale

So much intricate work Brian, Victory is looking superb
Thanks Joe getting a bit monotonous might need a break
Only 2 more to do on the bottom shrouds can't say I'm sorry going to have a change and start the yards.
