Not exactly build log [COMPLETED BUILD]

Hello
Long time, no see. Have been struggling with the repetitive task of making only 8 cannons. ( I think I have PTSD after Victory ). I partially made one to figure out the best building sequence. And here it isROTF

And first cannon on the deck :

And all of them :

they went together without any problems. The small issue was minimal visible seems lines on the barrels so need to be polished. which of curse destroys the beautiful blackening done by Korabel.
And the other one: I have to replace the thread because the one in the kit is so shiny you can use it as jewellery. I replaced it with Amati one. I'm not in making my own lines yet. Btw are those who make their own are making all of them? Even the smallest diameters (those with my cannons are 0.5mm). Or just the bigger for standing/running rigging?

Stay safe, keep modelling
 
Hi
I just dryfit my Avos on a "designers" base, and I couldn't resist showing it to you. For me already looks fantastic.
It is Master Korabel kit and I think that manufacturer should be introductory to wooden model shipbuilding
Hallo @Dragdonius

Hello Fellow Modelers
I think I get to the stage that I can call she is finished. Yes, she will need some touchups, and hang the line here and there. And the dinghy :). But for now, I'm done with her :).
