That looks much better indeed. Your wicker-work (don't know if that's the right word) looks als much neater. -
Maybe you're right haha, how big would a mouse be at this scale?
-
Finished the Fore stay...pictures are not that great because the light is weird now. But you get the idea 😁 The mouse looks a bit oversized...but I can live with that with this model. I did not serve the line. Because my knowledge about this is not sufficient at this stage. You can also see the gammoning.
-
I thought so...it looked way better then the Caldercraft thread
-
great job! Are you using the supplied thread?
-
Trying to make a mouse that sits on the fore stay. Not perfect yet... but learning. It's okay for now. The hard piece on the inside is made of polymer clay, but I need to refine the technique on the homemade jig
-
Seeing it for the second time...I don't think it's to bad...I probably can work with it 🙂
-
I took a look in the Pegasus box and found out that the false keel isn't straight. It's made of MDF and my understanding was that this didn't warp that much? What would the best option here? Did someone asked for a replacement from Amati? How is the service of them? Or maybe I'm gonna trying to fix it... that's also an option. I don't know how mdf exactly reacts...

Thank you so much 😊
-
Yes I know😁, also a good reason to choose for this particular build 😊
-
The quality of the materials in the Pegasus box are looking great indeed. Tomorrow I will scan the box to look if there are no parts missing. I don't either know exactly how to rig the tackle pendants. My thougts where...That I will come across them when I go systematically trough the manual. But maybe someone else can jump in with the answer?

Great carving GrandpaPhil! Especially at that scale!
-
You're doing a great job! She's comming along nicely

Just ordered the HMS Pegasus from Amati for my second build at Cornwall modelships The doubt was between the Syren, Granado and Pegasus...but in the end, the Pegasus was just the most appealing to me. Big step forward in complexity, but I think I can manage it with the help of the forum
-
Tnx! You're ship also does look great! Nice clean work👍 I have at the moment not a job so a bit more free time 😉
-
Ratlines are done! Nice to notice that you get very proficient at tying the ratlines at the end...😊

Offcourse the knots are overscale executed, and probably wrong...but it's more clear I hope. It's the top shroud that rests on the hounds at the top of the mast. Personally I think I need to use the left eye splice?
-
I will have to make an eye splice in the middle of the rope...let me see if I understand this correct. The manual says: "For the foremast, to begin, measure an 850mm length of 0.5mm black thread. Using a length of 0.25mm black thread, form an eye splice at the mid pointof the 850mm length of 0.5mm black thread to form an eye of approximately 6mm in diameter". How would attach this eye at the 0.5mm black main thread? Just a loop like this ___!___ with the O on top? Or like -----O-----? Maybe I need to shoot some photos to explain...
