testazyk Posted June 16, 2019 Share #31 Posted June 16, 2019 Hi John--Looking good! How did you decide what sizes of rigging lines you need and how much you need. Thanks!

john_weiman Posted February 8, 2020 Author Share #33 Posted February 8, 2020 Starting to do the sails, corrected the anchor rigging, and added the life boats. The rigging is slow, and tedious. md1400cs, JayCub, GrandpaPhil and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

john_weiman Posted April 10, 2020 Author Share #36 Posted April 10, 2020 Continued progress on the ship. Require some help. Would anyone be kind to recommend how to shape the end rigging in place on the belaying pins. Some of the cord is so light that I am wetting the cord, and holding in place until dry with weights, but if anyone can advise the best way to shape the end rigging it would help me, thanks in advance.

How about brushing onto the ends some PVA? OC. EJ_L 1 Quote Current builds 28mm Battle of Waterloo attack on La Haye Saint Diorama. 1/700 HMS Hood Flyhawk with PE, Resin and Wood Decking.

md1400cs Posted April 10, 2020 Share #38 Posted April 10, 2020 (edited) John, Yes I have a method that works very well - I will look through my last build and lead you there - I think that it will work. I'll get back ASAP I was going to load some images - but easier if you go to p55 of my log I fully explain how I achieved the right look - scroll down a bit - hope it helps https://modelshipworld.com/topic/329-wasa-by-md1400cs-finished-corel-175/page/55/ Edited April 10, 2020 by md1400cs Old Collingwood, EJ_L and john_weiman 3 Quote Michael Current build : Sovereign of the Seas 1/78 Sergal Under the table: Golden Hind - C Mamoli Oseberg - Billings 720 - Drakkar - Amati Completed: Santa Maria-Mantua -- Vasa-Corel - Santisima Trinidad cross section OcCre 1/90th Gallery : Santa Maria - Vasa - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john_weiman Posted April 10, 2020 Author Share #39 Posted April 10, 2020 Will this set the bundled up cords nicely on the pins, so that I can shape them? Old Collingwood 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john_weiman Posted April 10, 2020 Author Share #40 Posted April 10, 2020 Thank You Michael, will follow your technique. Beautiful ship you built. Regards, John md1400cs, Old Collingwood and EJ_L 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
md1400cs Posted April 11, 2020 Share #41 Posted April 11, 2020 John - glad that it might work for you! - Your ship is an excellent work in progress - So enjoying following along. This ship was very tempting - it was between Le Soleil and the Soreign.. in between my next Viking coming up. Toss-up The Brits won - Both are such great kits. PS: big thanks for your appreciated notes re: Vasa Cheers, EJ_L 1 Quote Michael Current build : Sovereign of the Seas 1/78 Sergal Under the table: Golden Hind - C Mamoli Oseberg - Billings 720 - Drakkar - Amati Completed: Santa Maria-Mantua -- Vasa-Corel - Santisima Trinidad cross section OcCre 1/90th Gallery : Santa Maria - Vasa - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
