  1. Good day, I would like to add, how" right "/correct coiled ropes were made! Great job!
  2. 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!!!
  3. On the pictures, looks like clews rising up from the mast top platform to the lead blocks on the yard?
  4. Michael, You just read my mind! :)))- fake furled vertical section! I think it will work as need!:) All The Best!!! Kirill
  5. 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",
  6. Good day Michael! Looks Fantastic! Great! All the best! Kirill
  7. Good day, Thank You very much for your attention and kind comments!:) I m glad You like my little galleon experiment .
  8. They say cold, snowing...and "0" modeling...:))) I'm not at home till May. We are working between Cuba and New Orlean...
  9. Good day! Well Can Imagine how difficult what You are doing now! However it looks Great ! With single lead blocks for main and main top gallant stay on the fore mast - it sounds good and quite acceptable solution!!! wasa_31.tif wasa_31.tif
  10. 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 :)))
  11. 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!!!
  12. Good day, Thank You very much for information about process and of using threads ! Is clear now!Very informative! All the best! Kirill
