I never would have known how much work was involved in building one of these models. Getting the time is not easy and I am determined now to get this finished. I am starting to see light now at the end of the tunnel. Sorry I havent been keeping my diary up to date so heres some pics and my progress to date. Rigging is very intricate and seems to be never ending but I am happy with my progress. A very daunting project at the start but she is really starting to come together now. Gonna get some pics up after this post so bare with me.

BigGrin Nice to see you back neon . The rigging looks spot on m8 . A little tip when I do the rigging I mark the instructions with a highlighter pen so I know which one I have done.

Brendan

You are making a fantastic job of your model.

Still think this is one of the best models ever as it looks so good all painted up.

Ok lads I have been very busy the last few weeks with this. I now have all the rigging stays done etc. Very fiddly making sure all the masts are straight etc but I am pleased with the outcome. I have the main sail rigged and hung. I havent decided yet but i think I will be rolling up the bottom sails like on some models i have seen here.
