Looks great. Would love to do a bunch of those for my dad… but that rigging and all looks overwhelming:( |

Looks better than my 2nd boat! Really nice work. Are you using paintbrush bristles for the standing rigging? The ensign and pendant ought to be blowing out to starboard, though, given your wind direction. (Always nitpicking!) For some extra detailing, Julián has an article somewhere on how to make 1/1200 anchors out of office staples and Langton ratline sprues. They're easy to make and look great. |

thanks for comments and encouragement! oh man, the flag is the wrong way?? no big. I'm sure it'll pop off eventually and I'll fix it then. : ) for the rigging, Not paint brush bristles, but black thread soaked with glue, as outlined in War Artizan's rigging tutorial. Anchors? that would be cool. I never thought of anchors. the ships are fun to make actually, and really look nice.
for anyone feeling hesitant, I guarantee that if i can get a ship too look decent, then you can too. |
