Very interesting stages of conversion Julián.
What is it soaking in, in the glass?
Rob.
Sorry for persisting but what sort of alcohol would that be Julián?
Rob.
Thanks Julián.
Sounds a lot more user friendly than Nitromors.:shock:
Rob.:wink:
Today I have finished the paint work in the hull and I fixed the masts.

Great build so far Julian. Are those Langton 3-decker masts? Beautiful job scoring the deck planks. I envy your ability to keep the lines so straight.
No worries Julian, you deserve every bit of it.
That is just incredibly beautiful!
Today I fixed the sails.

Have a nice weekend!
A superb bit of work again Julián, but once more it raises a question.
If you have pre painted the masts, how do you get the sails to adhere strongly?
Rob.
As you can see in the image that I attached, the brass sails have a little lashes to hug the mast.
These sails are much lighter than those of white metal. It is advisable to do the union of metal with metal and not metal with paint or paint with paint.

Thanks Julián. I have only ever used the pewter/ lead sails. These look far superior.
It just goes to show that one is never too old to learn a new trick or two.
Rob.
Their thickness is very much better but the sacrifice is the double curved shape of filled sails.
You can bend them horizontally and vertically to get that filled sail look. I use a large marble to shape them over.
She really is looking superb Julian.
Good tip Vol. My smallest planishing stake is a might too large for those radii.
Rob.
Hi, today I started the rigging.

I just realized that the middle row of the side of the stern gallery are probably not meant to be glass.
That's good eyesight Jonas!
I could only tell there were windows, and my screen is at 150% mag at all times.
Rob.
Wonderful job Julian,
I hope this helps,

Incredible tiny work... :shock:
I'm speechless.
Today I have finished the rigging and the running rigging. I also have changed the color of the side of the stern ( three lines of windows and now two lines of windows and a balustrade).
