Dziadeczek got a reaction from thibaultron in Making a Silk-fabric(?) Sail
There is available a very good little brochure by David Antscherl on making model sails from silkspan, if you decide to use this medium.

Dziadeczek got a reaction from etubino in Rattlesnake by javajohn - Model Shipways - 1:64
I carved my own transom from a thin piece of wood (cherry, if I remember).

Hello,
Thank you in advance for your nice comments and the many "likes".
I am always happy and motivated by positive feedback. Constructive criticism and suggestions are still very welcome.
Greg, I'm also very glad that my rigging inspires you.
Continuation: Standing rigging for jib and outer jib boom - Bâton de foc et bâton de clinfoc
First I had to attach the jib boom. I lined the jib boom passage in the cap of the bowsprit with a specially split leather (d=0.2 mm). The jib boom was placed on the prepared wooden pad or spacer so that it runs parallel to the bowsprit. Then I lashed the jib boom to the bowsprit analogous to bowsprit gammoning.
I added small details to the cap, as can be seen in the last picture. These are single blocks (l = 3.5 mm) on each side for the bowlines of the fore topsail. Next to the block you can also see the leather lining mentioned at the beginning.
Sequel follows …

This is from Lees "TheMasting and Rigging of English Ships of War 1625-1860". It all looks rather complicated, perhaps for your model you might simplify it a bit...

Perhaps it is a bonnet, which is a piece of canvas that is laced together with the rest of a sail to make it bigger. That part you encircled in red might symbolize that lacing.

Dziadeczek reacted to md1400cs in Sovereign of the Seas 1637 by md1400cs - Sergal - 1:78 - to be hopefully bashed
Hi all,
Have not posted since March as the shipyard had been closed for a couple of months. Admiral and I decided it was time for our home to have a remodel beyond just paint (shipyard became a storage room – yikes)
So just catching up here with work that I am finally moving forward with… thanks to members still following, as well as those just dropping in for a look – so much appreciated.
The poop deck and quarter decks have been my area of work. That said one glaring lack of foresight has resulted in a spacing issue.
I was very tempted to tear out the poop, and quarter deck to fix this - but way too much re-building work, as well as having to totally re-plank both decks, lengthen bulkworks, as well as railings.
So instead, just moving forward. Image notes sort of go through my thoughts, so keeping text brief.
Sorry could be too many images in this particular catch- up post….
Last several images include details that were also added to the other decks (sump pumps, finished catheads, cannon ball boxes)
Glad to be open and, working again…
Regards,

How do you subsequently carve those reliefs in styrene? I am curious about the process, so, could you please, attach a couple of pics of your tools and the process showing it? Thanks!
