POF L'Amarante Corvette de 12 canons 1744 1:36 (Ancre Monograph- Gérard Delacroix) By Shota

Hi Shota,
the holes for the anchor lines should be drilled parallel to the hull axis, not perpendicular to the planking. This topic was discussed here:
thank you very much my dear friend marsalv, for your guidance
Indeed, this is what I actually did, after observing and studying your excellent work and construction logs, by Gympie65 and Tobias. Along with a look at the monograph's plans
 
Good evening dear friends
In The last two days I took a short break from working on the bow decks This time
I have been focused on preparing the rope openings in the bow of the ship as well as the black blocks in the bow.
These blocks are part of the rope openings as well as the decorations in the bow.
I would like to emphasize that the work was carried out with the help of an electric wire saw, sanders, a Dremel, and manual work with sanders. I would also like to mention that the decoration of the bow, made of poplar wood, is the initial decoration prepared for simulation purposes.
I am attaching pictures of the process and the interim result,
good night to all of us

Wow, Shota. Maybe one of the best thing ever seen on SOS so far. You definitely reached highest rank of modelism by that .
 
good afternoon my dear friend
The beakhead parts are ready, with the rope opening parts ready, to be installed in later stages :)
I understand that final adjustments will be required when assembling/
gluing to the bow, but for now it sits well.20260305_122147.jpg20260305_122203.jpg20260305_124253.jpg
