I carved the figurehead from balsa wood with an exacto-knife, and added the
rails to the bow. The rails were quite time consuming since each had multiple
curves. Yes, that's my thumb.
The cannons (small merchant cannons) were from Model Expo. I drilled them out to
shoot talcum powder.
Some of the belay pins and dead eyes from Model Expo. The turn buckles and
chain plates under the deadeyes are made from jewelry supplies from
"Michaels" craft store.
