Thanks Stephan.
I knew I had read it in one of the build logs. Michele's work is an exceptionally good example of what can be achieved with bitumen.

Thank you dear Shota for your nice words.

I'm doing some prep work to put all the bow parts together and then mount everything to the hull.
I first of all pleased the lion figurehead with a tongue.

Furthermore something I wanted to add were the depth marks.
I learned those marks were applied on the bow on the starboard side (on the stern on the port side) in the form of Roman numerals that were tilted to form a clear line from which the draft could be read.
This turned the x into a +, the L into more of a tilted V, and the I's were replaced by a dot.
I used a sharpened mini screwdriver.
