Work looks great. Beakhead is a term I had not heard before, but I have figured out where the location is.

Kurt,
A beakhead is the protruding part of the foremost section of a sailing ship. It was fitted on sailing vessels from the 16th to the 18th century and served as a working platform by sailors working the sails of the bowsprit, the forward-pointing mast that carries the spritsails. The beakhead would be one of the most ornate sections of a ship, particularly in the extravagant Baroque-style ships of the 17th century. The sides were often decorated with carved statues and located directly underneath was the figurehead, usually in the form of animals, shields or mythological creatures. The beakhead also housed the crew's toilets (head), which would drop refuse straight into the sea without sullying the ship's hull unnecessarily.

Beautiful work on the masts - Do you use Black hornbeam from bibigon ?
Thanks, Uwek. Sure, he supplies me with timber! ))
Very good and accurate work - and the hornbeam is looking also very good -> I like it very much
Very clean an accurate work on the blocks and permanent rigging.
Are you sure, that your model is also 1:48?
Isn´t it maybe 1:24 ? The quality is telling me, that it can be only a bigger scale - Very good work

Would like it to be in 1:24 )))) But have very small working space... So 1:48) Thanks, Uwek))
Looking very good - Usually the La Salamandre is really not sexy, but from this side.....
Are these the carvings included in the kit?
