Hope life is treating you well.

Lovely to see a further update on your build. Glad to see you left the tabs on your hammock supports as I seem to recall the magazine has these being flush cut (sorry if incorrect) and I could not see them holding up.

This is one of those parts of the build that's needs sone patience and concentration but have no worries you will pull off a beautiful result
Happy Modelling

Hi! Tony, thank for the comments.
Sewing up the net is no easy task.Smile
To make sewing a bit easier I use cardboards and temporary threads to hold the nets in position.

Now that idea foe sowing the nets using card to hold it all together is a very good idea indeed.

So many things on the go at the moment my victory hull is only a third planked so a long time before I reach your stage of the build.

Good to see yours coming along so well.

Happy Modelling

Extremely neat finish to your hammock netting.

The finish really does look excellant.

Very neat yet againBigGrin There are also 2 forcastle cannon which face forward, these appear later in the build but are difficult to rig / tie down after the rigging is on. If you have them at this stage it is much easier to get them done now.

Your onto a very delicate and complex part of your build now but have made a great start.

This will look simple wonderful once you get that rigging completed.
