costeo Posted March 17, 2016 Author Share #33 Posted March 17, 2016 Hello everybody! The last small things in this area. The rigging works are close but I have only the kit plans... and I'm so far from the kit. If you have any detailed plans for the earlier 17-th century galleons rigging.... it will be very welcome!

costeo Posted April 15, 2016 Author Share #34 Posted April 15, 2016 (edited) Hello everybody! Although I have a lot to do at the hull, I felt to change the register. I started testing how to make ropes and blocks. There're just tests.

mtdoramike Posted April 15, 2016 Share #35 Posted April 15, 2016 This has got to be one of the best builds going, I love the finish you have given the wood and those strategically placed nail heads are superb. For some reason I never gave this model much thought, but after watching this build log, I'm very impressed and now I'm considering this model. mike edmay and Bobstrake 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

md1400cs Posted May 21, 2016 Share #48 Posted May 21, 2016 Costeo. Hello just discovered your build log - This is my first experience in model ship work. REALLY _ you have set the bar Very High indeed for all of us. (:-) Superb work. And as has been noted, by several members, your wood tones are so visually pleasant. I will be happy to follow along as well - and certainly learn from you as well. Oh and has also been mentioned - This is a kit that has probably been overlooked by many - great ship indeed.

md1400cs Posted May 21, 2016 Share #49 Posted May 21, 2016 Costeo, Hmmmm- Just visited the OcCre site to check out this kit. You should add to your header (Kit Bashing) (:-) Just in case you are not familiar with this idiom; kit bashing is when a builder uses a kit as an entry base and adds huge amounts of superb details to the basic kit. That, in my opinion, is where your work belongs.

costeo Posted May 21, 2016 Author Share #50 Posted May 21, 2016 (edited) Thank you, Michael! Very nice words... yes, really, is my first experience, but it was my dream. When I started to post, the name of my topic was "starting from a kit" and then was automatically changed. I don't know how to change the header.... sorry!
