Revell Black Diamond - 1:350 snap tite kit {part 7}

The holes for these assemblies have already been drilled.   Starting on the starboard side,  the long threads were tied.   These were not cemented in place just yet.


The short threads were tied in place along the bulwark.   They were weighted so they would stand up on the bulwark,  and cemented in place.   The top line will be cut off,  leaving the knot they are bound with,  so that the long thread {after being rigged} can be tied in it's place.


Here is what the whole assembly will look like.......


After they were all run,  strung,  tied,  and cemented...here is what they look like.



I did the aft braces next........fore braces,  main braces,  and mizzen braces.   I know that there are fore braces as well.......not sure if I will add them.   It's gonna depend on how all this looks.



I may add some more lines....one more update should do it for this build.

AHOY!!!
