HMS Vanguard - Amati - scale 1:72 - Foto
He installed a "fence" and a bell tower on the forecastle, pilers, ladders. I made racks for railings.
I make solder rings, it doesn't make much sense to solder them, but I wanted to.
I finished installing "fences" on the poop and quarterdeck. I redid the roaster grilles, replaced the 2mm balls with 1.8 mm.
Awesome
I finished installing the guns on the forecastle and the poop.
Another alteration of the finished element.
So very good!
Wonderful modeling!
I made a stern lantern. In the first photo on the left is a trial version of the lampshade, on the right is the lampshade from the set.
Good morning. Wow that is very well done. Those added details are tiny - awesome. Cheers Grant
Привет, Винтер! Нет ли желания покрасить фототравление на корме в более реалистичные цвета? А то всё это "золото" не смотрится на фоне твоей великолепной окраски и выглядит чужеродным. Вот примеры из коллекции Гринвича.
Hello Winter! Would you like to paint the photo-etched stern in more realistic colors? Otherwise, all this “gold” doesn’t look right against the background of your magnificent coloring and looks alien. Here are examples from the Greenwich collection.

Уважаемый Винтер! К сожалению, все корабли класса Аррогант с 1780 года имели медную обшивку. Кроме того, HMS Vanguard никак не мог нести окраску образца 1778 года, которую Вы показали. Можно попробовать переделать модель как HMS Edgar 1779, на момент спуска на воду, чертежи с орнаментом на корме и носовой фигурой есть в Интернете. Всё равно аматиевский орнамент на корме и носовая фигура - полная шляпа и подлежит выбросу в мусорное ведро.

Dear Winter! Unfortunately, all Arrogant class ships since 1780 have had copper plating. In addition, HMS Vanguard could not carry the livery of the 1778 model. You can try to remake the model as HMS Edgar 1779, at the time of launch, drawings with an ornament on the stern and bow figure are available on the Internet.

Greetings, thank you for the offer, I agree with everything, but I will refrain, I definitely will not sign up for this. And gold can be found on models from Greenwich, and it's beautiful)
The stern lights are in place.
It is probably just me, but I do not understand how/why the use of putting the names using raised letters came about on modern models when this was never done on a ship or even on contemporary models? If the kit provides these as premade items it is an extra cost to the kit makers and then passed on to customers so why go to the trouble and expense when it is incorrect and unnecessary? If painting it by hand is a problem (it is for me at times 
) it can be printed on a piece of paper which can then be glued to the counter just as the frieze work has been done by many modelers for centuries. Vanguard 1787 would not have had her name on the counter in any manner, but I realize most ship modelers today find it a nice touch to have it there for others to know what ship it is rather than having it on a name plate on the display base. Some may find the warrant below interesting
9th September 1772
To the respective Officers of all the Yards.
Notwithstanding our Warrant of 28th June 1771 These are to direct and require you to paint the Name of the Ships at your Port in Letters as large as the second Counter will admit, as they come in course of painting without any compartments [painted border] round them
The June 1771 warrant called for twelve inch high letters if I remember correctly whereas the 1772 orders allowed the letters to be as high as would fit in the counter. This practice lasted for about 10 years, after which it was rescinded and thereafter discontinued pretty much to the end of the age of sail, as it was felt that this could give important information to an enemy

Damn you, bring up this topic, I had a desire to redo the inscription.
I didn't like the dissonance between the golden stern and the bow of the ship, so I decided to add gold to the bow.
