10 more to go?
Well Vic, if you don't have patience you don't get the results you want.…..I can’t wait for the prints…
One just has to grunt and continue working. It's like ratlining. Hugely tedious. I wan to start printing also, and am resisting the urge to start another model just to get my hands busy again. That's the tough part.
THe taffrail and counter are next, then the column decorations. (what are they called again?)
Column decorations, maybe?
Columns, definitely. At the moment I started working on some of the other decorative elements that surround the icons, starting with the carvings around the central figure of King Charles I. Here is how that one is coming along. The gallery around King Charles below this is next, and that gallery may be merged with the figure of the King to make one large central assembly.

The stern alcove for King Charles I is complete. The figure of King Charles will be printed seperately for ease of construction.
I went crazy on the alcove since it's the centerpiece of the stern.

Hi Kurt,
Fantastic results. One remark is there an option to slightly angle some of the emblemes at the corners of the stern. Your emblemes are now squared where they apear angled following thelines of the sides and friezes.

This would benefit the aestetics greatly.

I noticed that also. It was easily fixed. Another minor issue is that the painting is not completely symmetrical, so theye may be some issues fitting the objects into the panel rectangles on the model, and adjustments to scale and shape in the 3-D objects will occasionally need to be made and repriinted on the resin printer.
