Thanks everyone for the likes 😊 

now the syren is looking as a brig, all the corronades is finish, not glued to dekk yet.

Its time to make hooks and rope, or......

I may have to order the rope from chuck for the rigging do to I havent got the tread or I dont no wat costumer to used

so I can make my own rope (later later)
