Hi Walterone
It's starting to take shape and it's nice to watch.

Hi,
It seems a shame to paint this as it will hide your skilful wood work.
Great work.
Keep it coming.
Beautiful woodwork you are showing here Vladimir
@MarcMarseille, @Martin555., @pingu57 - thanks a lot friends.
Well, back to work. I made the floorboards and drilled a lot of necessary holes in the bulwark.
Don't worry, I'll paint only the outer side, all the interior will remain in natural wood.

Some more internal details (the keelson with the carronade shots holders) and some external ones (the guard rail with its ears).
Great work.
Is the stand only for working on now ? or will you be making a display stand.
Yes. It's from the kit, but later I'm going to replace it.

Hi Walterone
Beautiful details, and all well adjusted.
This work is very pleasant to watch.
The support seems well adapted to the hull.
The kit manufacturer did a good job
I will settle down quietly to see the rest with pleasure

I like this kit very much
Surprising for me was the total number of shots this boat carried - prepared for a long action

Good morning Vladimir. Brilliant. Cheers Grant
The fore platform and traveller for carronade carriage. The hull is partially oiled.
Glued in the stretchers and 7 of the ten thwarts. The two trunks in the middle were necessary to pass ropes through the bottom of the boat for suspending under the keel heavy items like anchors or gun barrels.
These two thwarts with their clamps took much more time than the previous 7.
Their details. The hole in this thwart is 3 mm wide.

Hi Walterone
Very realistic detail
I am still following, with interest, the progress of the assembly

Thank you Marco. Yes, it's realistic, but microscopic
Good morning Vladimir. Exceptional detail. One day when I’m big I hope to achieve such detail. Cheers Grant
