Just gets better and better every time i look in Love

Man he took his time in the sun

Had a dream to understand

A single grain of sand

He gave birth to poetry

But one day will cease to be

Greet the last light of the library...We were here!

Hi guys - thanks for the nice comments.

After a little away-time from my build due to family-matters and also quite a lack of motivation - i`m back now with new energy to complete the last steps of this build!

Here`s a little update - mostly added some yards to the bowsprit and main - and mizzen mast including the rigging.

Good to see you back Walter.
Very nice update, fantastic build. I guess you're doing the bare yards version without the sails?

Happy building!

Finally the rigging is done! All mizzen ards were rigged.

Now it`s time for a cleanup (securing and cutting all the ropes) - then on for the anchors and the Davits.

I´m still a little bit scared of the flags - don`t know exactly how i will manage to make them look realistic!

Any tips?
