I wondered the same thing.
Do you have a Soleil build log?
Planking the wall. First I tried Titebond wood glue. The beech curls on the edges. Then I tried Loctite Super Glue Professional Liquid. Too runny and gets all over everything. Finally, I got out the Gorilla Super Glue Gel. It set up fast enough, didn’t run, and didn’t curl. 
Doggy doors installed. Now they can let the dogs out on the poop deck. Now I know how it got its name. 
I made a scraper using a razor with holes cut into it with my Dremel cutting wheel. Now I can scrape molding. 
Finished molding in place. 
Added some sapelle wood baseboards to trim it up a bit. 
That's a big ship great progress. Maybe the doors are for the cabin boys and powder monkeys.
, I guess it’s time to start second planking. I’ve seen several people believe in attaching wales (barkhout) first before the second planking. Most of the examples and instructions show putting on second planking first.
Anybody know what item P13 is for? It’s 1mm x 3 mm x 150 mm. There are 42 of them. I cannot find them on the instructions. 
I don't have the kit to be certain but... I could guess they are the ship's boat hull planking?
I bet you're right! Maybe i didn't look closely enough at the boat instructions because I was nowhere near that yet. Thanks Jim!
I’m making some wire rope from leftover Black Pearl lighting wire. It’s very thin. I’ll paint it gold and use it for ornamentation.
It’s twisted, sister!
Maybe I can use it like this:
I’m also thinking about scarf joints on the wales. Maybe cut scarfs into wales instead of making it a joint?

Spray paint on the left; Testors enamel on the right. Testors looks more like gold , I’ll go with that. I want it to shine. 
I’m laying the beechwood second planking. Not crazy about it because it tends to curl on the edges with pva. Not a problem with ca gel but I prefer using something a little less noxious. The pins seem to help. Making sure to overlap the red frames of the gun ports a little.
