  1. Good afternoon! This is a photo from your post Tell me, please, where will you take these ends of the ropes? Or will you set sails? I don't know what to do on my model. I'm already thinking about not putting these blocks.
  2. Good job and serious plans! I think 4 mm will be big too. I tried these, but I put 2.5 mm single block and 3 mm double block, since the hooks also reduce the distance to the eye bolt. especially on the moving part of the carriage.
  3. Have a good time! If you understood correctly, then see the photo. It is better to assemble the bowsprit completely, and then install it. It will be very inconvenient to fasten and tie the rigging
  4. a magnificent cannon! but I would replace the threads with more textured ones. I made a couple of similar guns, but yours is certainly much better!
  5. you have a good build for the first job! of course there are minuses, the main thing is not to lose motivation and finish the model. and then you will build the next ship
  6. This is yard rope (if I understood the question correctly) I didn't put all the blocks from the drawing, because I don't plan to set sail and some blocks will remain empty
  7. Good time! And what is this? I was building a spray, I don't remember such an element. I did cabin interiors and lighting. I still have a few photos of this model. The ship is far away from me now. An old friend of mine started building it as a child, but he couldn't finish it. For thirty years the ship lay in a forgotten shed. I completed it and returned it to a friend. photos of the initial state and the finished ship are attached. (light switch button - galley pipe)
  8. the ship is amazing in beauty and detail! you are lucky to have such a set I saw it here: http://www.chez-xandra.eu/publ/16
  9. I started deck repairs I think there will be difficulties with replacing broken deck boards
  10. i suspended work on Niagara. moved to another topic Blue Shadow Mamoli - - Kit build logs for subjects built from 1751 - 1800 - Model Ship World™
  11. About 10 years ago, I assembled a Blue Shadow model from MAMOLI. Then I had few skills and collected everything according to the instructions. The model turned out to be childishly naive, but cute. Mainly due to the rich rigging. Two years ago, I replaced all the rigging with threads of my own twisting, as the threads from the set were covered with dust and began to look not presentable. And he gave this ship to his colleague. For better preservation, I made a showcase, but it did not fit into the interior of my friend and he took it off. And it so happened that the children dropped the model. The results of the crash are in the photo. Now I have to put Niagara aside and do the restoration of Blue Shadow. I'm thinking of making the model better than it was. There is a lot of work to be done: - I've already cut all the rigging. Completely; - I will clear the deck, the deck will need to be cleaned of varnish and brought to the same color, I will add imitation nagels; - I will make a new becket, a pump, make a minimum strapping of guns, modify anchors, replace channels and yufers and blocks (I will make smaller); - maybe I'll add something else. thus, for the third time I take up this model
  12. if you put the shrouds individually (at the end of each loop, pic 1), then do not glue the mast, topmast and stengabram-topmast together. if the shrouds are paired, then you can glue (pic 2) do not forget about the gap between the mast parts, so that you can then carry out the rigging and have a good build!
  13. good job! but the blocks on the exelhoft must be moved forward. and so the rigging yards will cross the shrouds. I drew a picture I will make yards blocks like yours. that's cool😎
  14. over the past couple of days, we have only managed to prepare the threads. I made 10 meters each. it will take much more. I decided to remake the guns. I did well, but I can do better
  15. Hi! I saw your model. great job! is this ring not too far from the end of the cathead? it will have the end of the anchor block on it. or is it wrong?
  16. on the advice of an expert, I omitted davit cleat I didn't take a photo, maybe tomorrow
