Hallo @DematosdgHi all
As I mentioned at the end of my Pegasus thread, my next building will be a ship known Globaly as the Turtle Ship.
Below is a copy of the first paragraph in Wikipedia. I will post link for those who would like to learn about it.
If a SOS member happens to have pictures or drawing of the interior of this ships or period ships, I will appreciate them very much !!!!! . There are very few and I wasn't able to find one , for example, the cooking area.
The kit I am going to build shows the interior and I would like to add details.

A Geobukseon (Korean: 거북선, Korean pronunciation: [kʌbuksən]), also known as turtle ship in western descriptions, was a type of large Korean warship that was used intermittently by the Royal Korean Navy during the Joseon dynasty from the early 15th century up until the 19th century. It was used alongside the panokseon warships in the fight against invading Japanese naval ships. The ship's name derives from its protective shell-like covering.[1] One of a number of pre-industrial armoured ships developed in Europe and in East Asia, this design has been described by some as the first armored ship in the world.[2]
