Many thanks Jan. Feels slow but then just seems to all come together.
Looking fantastic Neil, the dye finishes it off beautifully
Many thanks Mark. Loving your build also.
Little bit more dyed and fitted now. Deck parts virtually completed.
Wow, those are great photos.

Many thanks Jan.
A ver si tenéis suerte con el tinte. En la zona donde vivo me ha sido imposible encontrarlo porque es un tinte a base de alcohol. El tinte a base de agua no tiene el mismo aspecto.
Otsoa. We can get alcohol based dye in this Country easily. Finding a close tone is the big if.
I feel confident enough to match the same tones and shades.
Quick update.
Hull and keel on one side in progress.
Used Pavel’s patina dye to enhance the joints in the planks, then sanded the whole thing and then oak to give it warmth.
Still little bits of spraying here and there to highlight dirt etc.
Pleased with it so far.

Big progress today.
Virtually finished the stern and rudder. Small touching up to do here and there and nearly ready to come of the slipway for good and rest on the display stand.
The wheeled cannons placed and ropes attached. Not for the purists here but still looks ok for an old boy. Lol.
