Keep up a great job!! We will have time to rest, then.Dima, I work tirelessly every evening for 3-4 hours.
Great work I can't believe how quickly it's taking shape.
Hello everyone. Something I have not written or shown anything for a long time. 
Made some of the deck flooring amidships. Part, because the rest will not be visible, and this section is visible through the front entrances.
on a part of the deck I made markings for the dowels and installed the frame of the admiral's entrance on both sides.

Filled in the space to the top. What tricks do you have to go to in order to fasten for a while some elements as in these photos
Hi Sasha,
Will you leave these as holes to simulate pegs? Or will you fill them with something?
Very precise work!

Gondek and midship will have closed cannon ports, so I did not cut them (ports). Then there are full-fledged ports. And here the dimensions from the magazine and Anatomy do not converge at all. To do something right-like, I first set up some of the infill between the frames at a level just above the deck. On these blocks I put the lower part of the gun port. I had to assemble the gun in order to correctly set the height of the port. The bar to the left of the implement is the template for the weapon ports. I will use it to make port frames (such an idea). Well, I also fiddled with the case a little more.
Hi Paul. There will be pins, of course. I just haven't done it yet.
Thank you Mirek and Heinrich.
Very accurate preparation for the deck treenails..... very good work
Wow, impressive. Great detail work.

Uwe, Jan thanks.
Lovely work going to be a great model
Hello everyone. Thanks for your support and comments. I was away from the monitor for a week, so I didn't do much with the model. Made the pins for the deck. I had a strip of 1x2 mm pear, turned it on a cone on a grinding machine, greased it with PVA glue and inserted it into the holes. I cut off the excess. It turned out like in photo 3
After the glue has dried, I cut off the protruding parts of the pins with a chisel and processed it with sandpaper of different grain sizes. I poured it with water to show the result. Evaluate to you.
This part of the deck will hardly be visible, only through the admiral's entrance, so I will leave some inaccuracies and shortcomings as they are.
Personally I like the trenails in pear. It looks better than my birch toothpicks. Of course your approach is lots of work to make the pins!
