Since so many historical things are so unlikely and hard to believe except that they actually happened, fantasy will be very hard to get right.
I get why they might want to make their own fantasy...

Simon’s Rayo is out. I’ve bought it on 3DWargaming.
I'm sad Ares won't get any bite out of this cake, but the Sails community is doing good with the 3D printing injection.
…and he had four different ships that all had seven votes in the Patreon when I just had to select the 68 gun Dutch ship as a winner. Now he will have a 74, a 68 and a frigate.
Sadly the Swedish...
I love it and will definitely buy it as soon as I can.
I would like to have that figurehead as it’ll probably print well on resin printers and at the smaller scales that’s probably what will be...
Good to see.
I'm guessing the 100 gun also need the figurehead?
It has an empty space waiting in my Spabish fleet.
A little bit like this?

It took some time, but here's my suggestion of how Simon's sails could be improved:

Do anyone else have any input? To my suggestion? To Simon's sails?
Thank you Dobbs.
If I get my bowsprit finished it may be a thing to add directly to the model and print it with the hull in future prints. I still think I will prefer Simon's sails with the steel mast.
Right bow I...
Interesting.
I thought the foremast and mainmast may be a little short. The mainsail looks to be lower than the lowest spar on the mizzenmast. Is the masts that short. I may be wrong.
I give up. I have no idea of what it is.
Those pictures shows the development of Rayo very well. I like it very much. It will be bought.
That is a good idea. Using HMS Bounty as a merchant... I will have to remember that to when I have time to continue on other ship projects.
That is good news!
Is the Bahama available somewhere?
Those ratlines are so bad I could do better.

Firstly there should be blocks. Then the ratlines should be thinner than the shrouds. I would also want the ratlines to be hanging slightly.
They will be a while as that is his weekend side project and I believe he will have a week off now. He's worked quite hard on a Napoleonics 6mm range Kickstarter...
By the way, Henry mentioned in an update in the Patreon that he will be updating his detailed sails with more alternatives and sizes and that he is thinking about ratlines.
As I don't like his...
I understand. I thought it over and decided to aid him to make sure he can continue to design 3D models. I really like the models we get. I buy all ships I don’t have that Simon makes too.

And then you pay him each month.
I joined Henry’s Patreon and we have a vote each month for a tall ship. This month it looks like coastal artillery… I vote for Wasa-class each month but it’s never been higher than third so far.
...
My modeling skills are so far rather limited, but adding a gun or two on the poop I can do.
Lots of smaller ships. 56, 64, 68 and 74. That's pretty much what I though.
Would be nice to have those sizes too. AFTER Henry's made a Swedish Wasa-class...
I'm really looking forward to that...

Henry's made a 74 and a frigate. Not much but it's something. Didn't the Dutch use smaller ships of the lines? I haven't really studied their navy, but I have some vague notion of them not only using...
