100% Agree!!! -
Michael, I dare say, you are the first person in my memory who tried, and by the way, very successfully and very authentic for the 17th century, depicted retracted topsails !!! My respect and respect! Great job!!!
-
On the pictures, looks like clews rising up from the mast top platform to the lead blocks on the yard?
-
Michael, You just read my mind! :)))- fake furled vertical section! I think it will work as need!:) All The Best!!! Kirill

Michael, Why didn't You make topsail furling like this? It looks like ,not the first time( not the first Vasa ,not first galleons), people try to avoid any possible ways making this pure style of 16-early 17th topsails furling ... which makes me crying every time... again not! :((( :)))... don't understand why?... it is so specific thing in topsails furling for this time...details You could read in Harland book "Seamanship in the age of sail",

Michael, funny thing I was 100% sure You made those small deadeyes from copper strip :))) together with chain as single unit and that white middle area was light reflecting on the photo but now I see it was made from plastic strip and painted at the ends as wood ... very interesting how mind could play with seen objects makes You believe in existing of fiction things :)))

Michael, you are a very modest person! Perhaps such things for the participant are happening unnoticed, but from the outside the difference is very obvious !!! Rex makes his rigging differently, not as detailed as you ... if you follow the link that Mark left, this difference is obvious ... So that's great ! The more good models and ways to create them the more interesting !!! All the best!!!

About the NRG
If you enjoy building ship models that are historically accurate as well as beautiful, then The Nautical Research Guild (NRG) is just right for you.
The Guild is a non-profit educational organization whose mission is to “Advance Ship Modeling Through Research”. We provide support to our members in their efforts to raise the quality of their model ships.
The Nautical Research Guild has published our world-renowned quarterly magazine, The Nautical Research Journal, since 1955. The pages of the Journal are full of articles by accomplished ship modelers who show you how they create those exquisite details on their models, and by maritime historians who show you the correct details to build. The Journal is available in both print and digital editions. Go to the NRG web site (www.thenrg.org) to download a complimentary digital copy of the Journal. The NRG also publishes plan sets, books and compilations of back issues of the Journal and the former Ships in Scale and Model Ship Builder magazines.
