Yzwong 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. To make sewing a bit easier I use cardboards and temporary threads to hold the nets in position. yzwong attached the following image(s): Current build - D51 locomotive Completed building the H.M.S Victory Now collecting the Senna McLaren MP4/4

Yzwong 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

Very neat yet again 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. Steve

Yzwong 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. Happy Modelling
