Louie da fly Posted Monday at 11:08 PM #31 Posted Monday at 11:08 PM Good observation, mate. Here's a somewhat better resolution copy of the same picture. And some others from the same series that might be of help. Steven mtaylor and Ferrus Manus 1 1 It's not really a ship model unless you've bled on it.

Ferrus Manus Posted 22 hours ago Author #32 Posted 22 hours ago The bent sail and yard, and how they will be displayed on-ship: I did something a little differently than usual. Usually, what I do is take a small piece of line, thread it through the hole in the sail, and tie it together at the top of the yard. This time, I put a knot between the sail and yard, and another one on top of the yard. The idea of this was to prevent the top of the sail from bunching up at the yard, and it worked about as well as I expected. I dunked all of the ropes needed for this sail in a brown paint/water mixture, and you can see some of them behind the stern castle. mtaylor 1
