I have always referred to it as above the waterline or below the waterline. The waterline is where the water's surface meets the hull.
If I'm mistaken someone please correct me. Maybe @Heinrich, our resident English teacher, can explain better.

you made a very good basis - good job
Beautiful working cradle. This model will be built in style!Hello everyone. I needed a base to work with the ship and today I decided to do it. At first I wanted to do something simple but I have been encouraged and this has come out.

I don't know how you'll be modyfying stern but @SZKUTNIK has ornamnents for ST maybe even side galleries
Here's also video tutorials form @shelk on modyfing stern. He also published them on thingiverse

Kurt@ - What is your price for a full set of the carvings to model SotS in scale 1:84? :) From the technical side there is no problem, but I need about 3 years to do it. The quality as shown below bow figures for the model VASA. I think, that it's better to design a completely new kit HMS...

. Very interesting and high quality what SZKUTNIK does. I am looking at the work of Liberto in his Santísima Trinidad, which can be seen in this same forum. He is basing himself on some good vintage plans for this particular ship. I also look at other works with this same kit, including Shelk's. What I'm trying to do is change, improve and/or modify everything I can and know, in order to build a model, as close to what this ship could have been. We'll see what will come out in the end.

Lorenzo,Hello WojtasS

You should reach out to Kris. I presented my requirements for the stern plate scroll work I wanted. When I did, he presented the stern plate drawing that matches your template. I think he may even already have the artwork you are looking for. Kris is very customer oriented and will do whatever he can to meet your needs.
Plus he's a great guy!

Hi Ken. The truth is that what Kris does is magnificent. My intention is to carve it myself in wood but I think it is very difficult. I still don't know what I will do, there are months or a year to get to that point. But I will certainly take your suggestion into account.
Cheers

Hi--what do you mean by "adjust the tables"? I am about to plank the same ship and would love to know what the masters do.

Hello! Although I speak a little English I have to use the translator and maybe some terms are different.
When I said adjust the strakes or boards, I was referring to not putting the wedges as the manufacturer says. The wedges seem very unreal to me and I prefer to make it as close as possible to how it really was. I know that in the end it will not be seen, because de hull is painted, but it has been a test for future models. I am a modest kit builder. The master modellers are in this same forum a little further down.
Cheers

Hallo @LorenzoNavío de primera línea Nuestra Señora de la Santísima Trinidad
Hello everyone
I have decided to show the progress of this OcCre kit. It is a ship already known by all of you and there are already very good works in this forum. Therefore, it will not be a strict step-by-step process, but rather it will show progress and improvements that it can contribute.
we wish you all the BEST and a HAPPY BIRTHDAY
