The walls and deck are gorgeous Dean! I can't wait to see how the hull and deck all come together.

Thank you to everyone for the comments, I appreciate it very much! And thank you for your opinions and contribution to my end result. I really struggled with the walls, as far as what I wanted to end up with. But I am now truly happy with the end result. And the Lion sleeps! 
Starting to look like a ship!
Bad news is I’m out of deck planks, because I did so much extra on the first level. Good news is I ordered more, and I can start fairing the hull while I wait on the wood to arrive.
Plus I have one more coat of arms to do.

Now you did it! You just woke up the Lion!
He said he’ll take a big bite out of that sinking Vasa, if you’re not careful!

Worked on the final coat of arms for the walls. Done!
I kind of like it with the more pronounced highlights.. .

Glued on the final coat of arms!
Dean I'm not sure what I'm more impressed with-your NL or your tidy, well organized work space. Both are equally amazing!

Excellent work. Thanks for the tutorial
Lol…thanks Glenn! I do like organization!
Thank you!
Brilliant Dean. Congratulations on an exceptionally well produced detail.
Thanks Paul! No two are exactly alike, but I can live with that!
I think I’m more afraid of making rope, than I am carving…lol. But you and Daniel have set the bar!
So when the times comes to start rigging, it looks like I am going to learn!
Great job with the decking! Nice colour too
She's a cutie Dean, you must be proud. Bet you had a few anxious moments when she took to your NL with a brush thoughThen me and my granddaughter went to the mailbox…she drove her car on the sidewalk.

With that done, it was time for food. So not a lot of ship building, but time well spent all the same!
