Le Saint Philippe 1693 after Jean-Claude Lemineur (Ancre) in scale 1:48

I understand you so well, my friend. The stern is the most difficult part of a ship to build, and all the drawings are usually flawed because they're just drawings. The only thing that's reliable is high-quality 3D modeling. Find that by all means. But the difficulty lies in reading these files, and then you need a technician to translate them from 3D into reality. I sometimes spend hours solving problems much simpler than your situation, and I can imagine how you feel. Unfortunately, I can't help you specifically, but I'm with you morally.
