Bishophobbies Posted February 22, 2020 Author #33 Posted February 22, 2020 Masts finished and stained with Minwax Natural. After carefully studying the plans it seems that the masts are raked 4 deg. aft - so the mast holes were modified to allow that - then masts were glued in. I had some rope that I had made up on my Domahoff rope walk and I'm using that so far. ccoyle, JpR62, GrandpaPhil and 3 others 6 Quote Paul UNDER CONSTRUCTION: Brigantine Phoenix - Master Korabel 1/72 scale PREVIOUS BUILDS: HMS Victory - Heller/Imai 1/100 scale Privateer Rattlesnake - Model Shipways 1/64 scale USS Arizona on Dec 7th 1941 - Trumpeter 1/200 scale IJN Yamato - Nichimo 1/200 scale USS Silversides - Trumpeter 1/72 scale USS Missouri - Trumpeter 1/200 scale English Carronade - Mantua 1/17 scale English Gun Deck - Panart 1/23 scale Check out my webiste: www.bishophobbies.com

Bishophobbies Posted November 18, 2023 Author #36 Posted November 18, 2023 I have an update!!! I just got sick and tired of this unfinished model mocking me every-time I looked at it in the display case. About 6 weeks ago I decided to finally finish it. Here are some photos of where I'm at today: ccoyle, RossR, Gregory and 1 other 4 Quote Paul UNDER CONSTRUCTION: Brigantine Phoenix - Master Korabel 1/72 scale PREVIOUS BUILDS: HMS Victory - Heller/Imai 1/100 scale Privateer Rattlesnake - Model Shipways 1/64 scale USS Arizona on Dec 7th 1941 - Trumpeter 1/200 scale IJN Yamato - Nichimo 1/200 scale USS Silversides - Trumpeter 1/72 scale USS Missouri - Trumpeter 1/200 scale English Carronade - Mantua 1/17 scale English Gun Deck - Panart 1/23 scale Check out my webiste: www.bishophobbies.com
