Colleagues, hello everyone and have a nice day. Thank you all for your support and comments. If they are watching my assembly, then someone is interested. Well, I'll continue. As I wrote earlier, I started trimming the aft galleries. The work turns out to be very painstaking, so it does not move very quickly. The result of the work on the photo.
Some of the window frames were damaged in the process, but I ordered a new set. And he is already waiting for me at the post office. Damaged frames will be replaced.
In the last photo, one of those elements that I make between window frames

Those crisp window frames are fantastic. One of the hardest things to do on HMS Victory are those window frames and the thin balusters for the faux railings on her stern on a scale model. This build is looking good.
Slow and steady is paying off big time for you Sasha.
Good morning Sasha. The aft galleries on the Victory are ridiculously difficult. I have viewed countless model builds of this ship and from kit failures to Grants hack I have seen a minute few who get these spot on. You are one of those few. Excellent Sasha. Cheers Grant
Hi all. I finished installing the decorative elements between the window frames and replaced the broken frames
Very Niiiiiice!
Now I have painting decor. I began to mock my eyesight and decided not to paint like on the original. All decor will be in the color of gold. First, I blackened the metal (you can see it in the first photo), then covered it with a hard brush with almost dry paint. it will look like the picture
I like how these decorations turned out! Nice depth to them now.
Hi Sasha!
Here are photos of the Victory as it looks today (May 2017). Maybe you can use them!
Love greetings
Thomas

Beautiful work Sasha and beautiful photographs, @Thomas Marocke Thomas.
Thomas, thanks for the photo. I printed similar ones for myself and made all the patterns on them. I printed yours too. Sometimes the shooting angle plays an important role.
Joe, thanks for the photo. They will come in handy for me
IMHO, that ship needs paint and copper sheeting or plates. I like the Mantua sheets of copper plating is several different scales. I am building an old Mamoli kit produced as late as 1991 using Mantua's product, a 1/160 copper plating for their own 1/1/170 scale HMS Victory. The scale difference is not noticeable: It looks great.

Good afternoon, friends and colleagues in ship modeling. I wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. I wish you all good health, family well-being and financial prosperity.
Construction of VICTORY continues. Installed balusters on the aft galleries

designed the roof of the side galleries, and made a gunwale at the top of the gallery. most of all I had to work hard for semicircular elements. First, I bent a black hornbeam 5 x 2 mm. After that, the yellow hornbeam and then connected the two parts together. And only after that he pecked. The result satisfies me.
