Last time in my Sultana build, i used sculpey to make buoys, this time tried a different approach. ![]() ![]() In below picture are two buoy prototypes, i carved without a lathe.. ![]() Then pilot holes are drilled and two hooks per buoy are made and inserted, not all the way thru to leave a bit room for seizing.. The buoys were painted in white. ![]() Then harness for each buoy are made, two per buoy. Three lines were knotted along another rigging line. Spacing between the lines was appr 6mm. ![]() Then the harness were wrapped around the rod, knotted and glued. ![]() ![]() The harness was wrapped around the buoy and glued with super glue. ![]() The second harness was attached as well. This part was a a bit tricky, since three lines of the second harness have to be run under the existing harness before being seized but with little help this was done OK. ![]() The seizing was done around the hook, on both ends of buoy. ![]() ![]() And completed. With this all work, the buoys were weathered a bit which ended up to be a nice detail.. ![]() Ready for anchors.. ![]() Happy modelling.. | ||

There are a few articles on printing flags on the ModelShipWorld (MSW) forum here is one example https://modelshipworld.com/topic/89-making-cloth-flags/#elControls_531_menu. They may help. Alternate is to identify the period correct style and size of the flag you need then order from a good supplier such as CRW (https://www.crwflags.com/fotw/flags/index.html), Rokket (https://amp.rokket.biz/flags.shtml) in the US etc. CRW is a good research site to start with at least. Hope this helps. cheers Pat | ||
