Louie da fly Posted October 19, 2020 Share #362 Posted October 19, 2020 Those bottom blocks look very good. A good solution for fixing them to the hull, too. And I agree - she looks better with the boat behind her than alongside. FriedClams and mtaylor 2 Quote It's not really a ship model unless you've bled on it.

mtaylor Posted October 30, 2020 Share #385 Posted October 30, 2020 The black thread does give quite a bit more contrast and better definition of the pieces. I like it personally.

Louie da fly Posted October 30, 2020 Share #387 Posted October 30, 2020 (edited) Interesting problem. The general principle is that in the Mediterranean they fixed the lower ends of the shrouds with pairs of blocks, while in the Atlantic they used deadeyes (caps de mouton). Columbus set forth from Palos de la Frontera, on the southern coast of Spain, on the Atlantic side of the Straits of Gibraltar. So perhaps his ships were fitted with caps de mouton, as was this Spanish carrack of 1475, from an altarpiece depicting the battle of Zumaia, off Gibraltar. Note that these are fixed on the outer side of the hull. Edited October 30, 2020 by Louie da fly mtaylor 1 Quote It's not really a ship model unless you've bled on it.

CRI-CRI Posted October 30, 2020 Author Share #388 Posted October 30, 2020 (edited) Thanks Louie-da-fly The latin rigging was replaced (Canarias, September 1492) for using squared sails, like Pinta ship, latin sails were too dangerous for Atlantic Javier Pastor could have mistaken with other ships of mediterranean area, like other false details noticed into its plan, which I had to correct Edited October 30, 2020 by CRI-CRI mtaylor and bruce d 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
