Thanks Alex! I'm pretty occupied at work at the moment so I feel like I'm at a slow pace, but soon summer is here.

Hi Matti,
It's awfully quiet here. I am starting to get worried. Are you just having a very long vacation or is work getting in the way of the building? I would love to see some more pictures of your progress. Hope to hear from you soon.
Kind regards,
Jules

Hi Matti,
Good to hear from you again. I love the detail in your work: reshaping all the deadeyes... Keep up the good work.

Hey everyone! I'm moving on with the rigging. Main mast shrouds are installed, as are the bowsprit. Actually it was some work to get the ropes holding it this way, as the BB kit is not designed for the ropes to run through two holes sitting beneath the beakhead. The clamps holding the ropes are also made. I also made the mainstay collar. After a heads up from Fred I tried to base it on the real ship not the 1:10 or other suggestions like Landströms. Cheers /Matti

Hi Matti
very nice! Now you've reached the state of the "real" Vasa in the Vasa Museum.
Greetings, Alexander

Life's hectic at the moment but I've made some progress. I've made skanskläder for the tops and also made tackles. The later was more work than I thought as I reshaped the blocks. /Matti

Hi Matti,
congratulations on the completion of your model. With its very harmonious coloring your Vasa is a masterpiece!
What are your next projekts? What about the Vasa's boat?
I hope you will stay with us at the forum.
Cheers, Alexander
