  1. The mizzen sail rigging is completed I took this image as an example. The "where and how" all these ropes are attached on deck is purely on "feeling and good luck" 😇 General overview Outrigger with rigging Martnets and outrigger Tack Lift with crow's feet Halyard and rope coils Had an idea to put some attributes on the deck. Nothing is glued yet, and it doesn't look like a good idea... Thanks for following comments and likes
  2. A long time ago I learned to make molds at school. Our first, and only, mold that we had to make was of course much simpler 😉. I don't think it was technically possible, in that time, to provide these holes directly and at the right angle without the extra hawser pieces.
  3. It is indeed an unusual method. But on the model in Berlin museum it is also this way http://www.wasadream.com/Index/indexenglish.html
  4. I started riging the mizzen sail. The rest of the main sail rigging will be done after this. Preparations. Shaping of the sail is done on the mast itself (With an alert cat on the background...) zzzz.... 😇 This weekend the display case was adjusted. This case was designed a long time ago for military models only, not a wide sailing ship. The mizzen sail is attached. For now, the rigging of the mizzen is a mess. I have more ropes than attachment points to be continued 👍
  5. Very nice cammo, spot on 👍 (One of the three Churchills at alamein.)
  6. I would go for white or wood color. I built my SR "out of the box" a long time ago, with a black bottom. that's the only thing i regret about my model
  7. I also built these models. Nice little things 😉 you will enjoy building them.
  8. I made something similar a few years ago. Very basic, but sufficient to make my wooden masts. (link to post 449)
  9. interesting model. Norway is a beautiful country, we have been on holiday a few times in Norway. In which place do you stay? Groetjes
  10. I follow too. I built the heller SR a very long time ago. beautiful kit, you will have a lot of building pleasure with it
  11. Nice start. This is an old Esci Churchill kit. On first sight, the only new part is the box 😉
