Beautiful work as always Julian, I really enjoy seeing your ships! |

Astoundingly good work.
The sails – are they etched brass, or cast metal? |

I like the ship's boat being towed behind… Nice! |

Thank for your comments, I glad it likes. gaiusrabirius: In this model I have used brass sails. |

Julian you do outstanding paint work but you are still rigging all of your ships British style regardless of nationality. Since you are a commercial enterprise with very high ship prices, I would think your clientel would prefer their ships to be as historically accurate as possible. |

Lovely paint job, Julian. I too like the ships boats. I did not wish to say about the rigging, but as Vol has posted about it. I must say it was the first thing I saw, British naval rigging! Sorry for the downer. All you have to do is is rig all the mizzen yard-arms to the main, and not to the top arm of the spanker/driver.
Be safe

Hello Volunteer,
I appreciate the interest shown, but the stringing in ships of scale 1/1200 is an approximation of reality. You just have to see documentation about ships in eighteenth century for watching how much ropes carrying.
If it is true that I have to rig the mizzen yard-arms to the main, but the rope that I put it is not misplaced. I can show you pictures clearly showing the arrangement of these ropes.
Still, I will put in my new models the missing rope.
Thanks for watching.
Kind regards
Julián. |

Hello Rory, Thanks for the explanation, it took me a bit to understand the translation, but in the end I got it.
I appreciate constructive criticism. Kind regards,

Sorry If I sounded off Julian and you had a problem understanding me.
This was not a put-down just trying to help.
Be safe

Thank you very much Rory. English is not my forte and may not understand the meaning. But do not worry, I know the intention is good. |
