Hi Phil,
The first time I looked at this post it was on the tiny screen on my phone and all I saw was a blue and then a green painted hull. I'm relieved to now see it was just tape

Good morning Phil. Lovely work. Said it before but worth repeating- your paint colors and what you achieved here is magic. Cheers Grant

That part certainly looks tricky Phil with many different angles and gaps to be considered at once. Taking a look at your exemplary build so far, I have no doubt that you are more than up to the task. Your windows look perfect!
Good morning Phil. Those windows look great. The clear plastic backing makes a huge difference to the kit etchings- I must say the etchings looks rather good- nice when a kit gives you good detail. All round very well done on the stern cabins/castle. Cheers Grant
Not that deficit. Only work with your mind on it. How enough squares and only do or max two at the time. do something else, when drying. in many local stores, you can find squares to be glued on the false keel and bulkheads
Here in Spain this Week 500,00 € SO THE HIGH PRICE MOST BE DUTY TAX OR THE SUPPLIER IS TAKING A MUCH HIGHER PERICE
COMPLETELY CORRECT, but many builders from kit do NOT make the burning line..I learned from an OLD SAILER back in 1960 that there3Very important planks to be set fast,
The first one is about 2mm below the main deck
nº 2 to be inserted in the garboard line vertically from Bow to Stern
nº 3 a helping plank to be inserted in the hardboard on the bow approx in the middle of the hull -a completes lenge 120 mm -and now let it run to the steam-
must builders are doing this way, to which to me is wrongh
DO NOT INSERT THE DECK until they are needed. make the keek and kell and bow part first, then the bulkheads and finally the planking. inserting take deck at first you will have problems with Riggen guns and other riggen, which are below the decks and walkway
I SPEAK OF BAD EXPERIENCES FROM THE PAST
I made always a copy on a cardboard of the half deck-fully -generally two parts, which does not always fit.
when fitting well the two half parts, I take them out and fix the deck to the table with double side tape. now you can work according to your choice. I did always full-length planks, others want to follow a surten schema. when all planks are glued, you can now make a mix of white glue and black paint. pain the whole area with this mix-it will seal all tine tiny holes in the wood. before it gets to fasten, take a wooden close and clean most away. to clean it up totally you take RAZOR o piece of GLASS AND SCRAP NOW. after then sandpaper medium a finally fine
