Finished some deck fittings - skylight, pumps, companionway etc. The bloody frieze started to bother me. The more I look at it the more I dislike it. Might experiment with black paper. Thanks for the interest and likes.

 

[Maarten]

I do like the frieze to my opinion it brings the model more to life.

[Gennaro]

Sorry Maarten, being colour blind, I can't see beauty in colourful frieze anymore, with all those acanthus leaves, tritons, sea witches ... So here I go with almost monochromatic scheme. She is temporarily placed on stanchions. Yet another screw up - never thought of inserting nuts and eventually use machine bolts. Ah!
Building a cradle down the road. Thanks for the interest, comments and likes.

 

[Maarten]

Thats a pitty, chuck also has this on his new project Winchelsea. I love it.

 

[Gennaro]

Thanks for the likes and unfortunately disappointment. Sorry Maarten. Frieze looks great on Winchelsea, but she is twice the size of Cheerful. To make up for the frieze gone, I built seats of ease, including a comfy role of toilet paper. Needs some cleanup.

Nicely done! Keep an eye on that toilet paper it may disappear.

Looks like an average supermarket at the moment, there also the toilet paper is disapearing into thin air.

free-hand milling

So how did you cut the margin planks? I have the model to build in yellow cedar

 

[donfarr]

Not sure the crew would poop next to that captain as he steered the ship, but creative.
