I searched for the answer here, but I may have used the wrong nomenclature, because I only got one answer and it didn t have the information I was looking for.. I have added the fittings to my ship, and they are all silver in color. I have not painted them, yet. The only other build for the same kit that I am making has them painted matt black. I am hazarding a guess they were made from either wood, or iron, possibly steel in the late 17, early 1800's?

Hi; Question: How do I decide what color rigging to go with? My Mamoli model the Royal Mary has all Tan line - do not like it much as the color is too light. My Bounty had black rigging and looked good. I see some models on this forum with shrouds that are black line for vertical and white line for horizontal. Did every century have different color line? Does it depend on what country the boat is from? Does it depend on the type of rigging? I always like to built my models historically correct, so who knows the answer, if there is one. Thanks, Marc btw. If my era boat is to have tan lines I will give it tan lines.
