albert reacted to tlevine in HMS Atalanta 1775 by tlevine - FINISHED - 1:48 scale - from TFFM plans
Thank you folks for your kind comments and thanks everyone for the likes.
After much wailing and gnashing of teeth I have finally completed the quarter badge. The lower finishing is comprised of five separate pieces: three carved pieces and two moldings. The patterns were taken from the plan. The round part at the bottom appears to be a carnation-type flower on the plan. I hope you don't have to use your imagination too much! The console brackets are the carved decorations on either side of the badge. Having practiced with the NRG/Passaro carving blanks made this go a lot easier than I had anticipated.

I wish I could have been at that show!

Part 284 – Last Post on Ratlines
While there is still some further ratline work ahead, that will await further mast erection. For now, I have reached a stopping point after a few weeks work on this. Other work has been progressing and I will describe that in later posts. For now, I will just show the present status of the ratlines – and the overall model. The first picture shows the ratlines completed to this stage.
Some minor replacement/rework is still needed – revealed in part on some of these pictures, but what is shown here is essentially finished. The next picture shows work below the foretop that I should have done much earlier to avoid having to tie ratlines in the congested rigging shown.
The next picture shows the same work around the main top – much easier.
The topmast ratlines extend across the topmast backstays under the crosstrees as shown in the next picture.
The futtock ratlines here will be installed later. Finally, another view from above.
The way is now open to work on the main topsail yards and other things.

I started to install yards and sails. I wanted to furl the spritsail course and spritsai topsail, but I was not satisfied with the result, so I changed my mind and decided to leave these sails without furling. From this reason I had to make additionally the water holes in the spritsail course (Druxey - you were right). It was somewhat complicated because the yard with sail has already been installed on the bowsprit.
