San Juan Nepomuceno 1765 1/90 scale Artesania Latina

folowing steps of the construction, i ve paint all the parts i need in black. this will be where the cannon will be fixed
then, the next step was to do the forecastle front bulwark and forecastle waterways. luckily for me a forum explained me that was maybe the trickiest part of the construction before the hull planking. a mistake and it were hard to complete the operation

i knew the top of the hull have other layers of planking but i decided to use no nail all along the process
i was afraid for not having enough planks so i decided too to reuse the wood planks scraps later i discover that using this technic was easier for me in particular for make boil smaller piece of plank

Great progress, Julien! Small hint when posting your images. You don't have to necessarily post a single image\photo per post. Each post accepts up to 25 images, then you have to move to another post. Yes, 25 images are the limit per single post, but there is good news: there are no limits to the number of posts. :cool:

that made a little more than 1 month of construction but the result was already impressive to me, i was quiete proud of all i done
now it was time to start planking from the bottom
i screwed a piece of wood on the keel for the boat could stand up plumb
it was too late i realised i didn t sand the end of the keel so it will be a little wide
