Model VICTORY by Deagostini, scale 1/84

Friends, hello everyone and have a nice day.
Continuation of the construction of the Victory ship model.
I made guides for the hoists of the gun ports. First, I made a template for marking the drilling sites. Marked over each gun port on the lower two decks of the gondek and middeldek. I drilled holes with a diameter of 1.5 mm and a depth of 5 mm. I cut pieces from a brass tube and inserted them into the holes. After processing the sides, I will blacken the ends of the tubes already in place. Photo result

Hello Sasha. That is such a good idea. Finishes off the gun port hoists really well. Cheers Grant
 
I tied the trousers, as indicated in DeAgostini's journals. And then I came across a photo from the museum, and I had doubts about whether these guns had the right trousers. I consulted with fellow modellers and it turned out that it was not right. Now I'm redoing the binding :oops:
Was and became

Redid one side, need 8 more guns on the other side to fix

That's correct, Sanya! I was about to reply that the breeching was set incorrectly on your first post. The far most rings were used as load tackles when the gun was required to reload and was never used as breeching line path. Great job you corrected.
 
Very good that you re-did the breeching rope - I also just wanted to write and comment the wrong first way the rope was installed.
Very good my friend
 
Hi all. I have the next alterations at the shipyard. I did not like the "wells" for the kernels that the magazine offers and which I made. so I had to correct it again according to the original:):):)
It was done like this
