1/600 Scale rigging   Message List

I'm not sure if I even want to attempt this, but I have a Thoroughbred
model of the CSS Stonewall molded in white metal. It looks like it
could possibly be rigged, but I have some concerns (besides my

tension of the rigging and bend. Also, with that small size, would
the rigging look like a birds nest rather than a sharp model? As for
rigging material, I got some kevlar thread from a fly tying shop.

well. Thanks in advance, Joe
