  1. That is your own choice. If you are satisfied with the quality of the rope provided in the kit. Then use this. if not, buy better ones. The standing rigging is normaly darker than the rest. Darker tan or black (own choice)
  2. Welcome back. Nice work
  3. The rear castle. Not much is left of the original. So from here on, most becomes guesswork. The frames of sections 6,8,10 and the stern are used as a basis The first test isn't too bad. The stern in the drawing has an unnatural bend (personal opinion). That's why I'm going to deviate a bit towards the outside. The first 4 frames have been placed. They are still too high and probably too thick. But these 4 must be long and sturdy enough as a basis for the rest The intention now is to first provide more frames on this side of the model.
  4. Update, BTR70 : only needs decals and final wheatering Nona mortar carrier : almost ready for painting BTR R3K : chassis ready (after some struggles... ) As always , thanks for comments, likes and following
  5. I never built a Mayflower.... It is certainly not the perfect model, but if this is a cartoon, thanks
  6. Some PDFs. (When I put them on my PC they were free downloads) golden_hind plannen-volledig.pdf 2014Gresham.pdf elizabethan-merchant-ships-and-shipbuilding.pdf Furring in light of 16th century ship design_web.pdf red bay 2.pdf scheepsbouw 16e eeuw Engeland.pdf
  7. maybe my buildlog can help you BTW. There no detailled plans for an English galleon.
  8. Nice work. If I remember correctly, I also made this model a long time ago. I was about 10 years old at the time, I will be 60 next month 😁
  9. Great work. But the way you attach the anchors is quite unusual. Normally these are attached to the channels of the fore mast.
  10. Before. This way you can do this easily and comfortably while sitting (And also much better for your back ...)
