Rigging actually is fun, although sometimes very repititious. It really is when things start to look like a ship though.

Kim, the current paint configuration for the mast rings is white, the same as the mast itself. I did mine in black for contrast, and I had seen some models showing this. I just did mine that way, with no historical decisions. I have pictures if needed.

I found that sanding sealer worked great for preparing the lower planking for applying the copper tape. It gives a good finish so that the copper doesn't show the grain or imperfections in the wood surface.

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.
