Wish me luck as i have started on the rigging all yard arms are attached and painted only thing to say is the thread supplyed by Revell is rubbish its to stiff to work with so i have swaped for some better thread.

Super quick build Peter, it's looking really good.

It was hard enough keeping the masts something like straight and plumb doing the rigging on my diddy 1/700 battleships. It must be very tricky to achieve on such a big a scale as this, so good luck. Rather you than me, but I'm sure you'll crack it....

Rigging is starting to look good. Doing the running rigging is one of my favourite parts of doing ships.

 

[papa 695]

Great work so far Peter, it's coming along nicely

 

[Guest]

I really like your work by now!!! I can't wait to see it finish!

 

[Guest]
