Hallo Johnny,
Wonderful model you are showing us here........ very good work
We are not limiting the size of photos here in our forum, so you are free to show your progress photos also in full size photos.......
The three parts model of another modeler you mentioned in the text, is (I am pretty sure) the models built by our member Karl, alias @Jeronimo
I understand you, that these models can inspire you and you can easily be infected by the virus "Bonhomme Richard".......
Many Thanks, that you started the building log - it will be interesting

Here is the direct link to the model:
Archéologie et modélisme d'Arsenal (Angleur - Wallonie - Belgique - Europe ) - Alain WERNIMONT
AMArsenal - Une association belge qui s'occupe de faire revivre le modélisme naval pratiqué jadis dans les arsenaux. Notre démarche se base sur l'étude des documents anciens et les travaux de l'archéologue et pionnier Jean Boudriot.
It is often helping very much to see on other models, how a modeler solved a problem or interpreted a special detail in the drawings
Hallo Johnny, alias @js747a ,
we wish you all the BEST and a HAPPY BIRTHDAY
Enjoy your special day
Alles Gute zum Runden Geburtstag
Gratulation - Congratulations for finishing this model
Very good work my friend
Hope to see much more often some progress reports of the coming sections
This is an excellent presentation, many thanks. What are those openings for? Look likes the hole covers can regulate the opening size, how those covers can be operated underwater?

Excellent job... keep up the good work. 
Many thanks, Karl!
It seems, that these are the endings of the normal pumps - where the punmp cascat are installed - than this openings are only accessable, when the outer planking is removed.
The detail of the plans Karl is showing is from the 74-gun ship monograph (I think)
