Soleil Royal by Artesania Latina

Completed the main wale and wale #2, along with the lower elements of the beakhead. Struggling to determine the correct number of wales, as the Artesania Latina version differs from most other models ... :confused:

I love this ship. I'm drawn to it and the San Felipe because of the small mast and "crow's nest) on the bow sprit. (I'm sure I've misnamed something in that sentence, maybe a record number of misnomers in a single sentence? :))
 
After the summer, it’s time to pick up the thread again in my attic workshop. The Soleil Royal has been patiently waiting for months, and with the cooler days returning, so does my motivation to continue building. During summer I barely touched the workbench — too many things going on outside. Did some work on the main deck ...

Hey Koedec,

I think it's really great how you're building the SR. Your planking looks really awesome. Well done. The Soleil Royal from AL is a really great ship and definitely a very good kit. There are much worse kits out there. Simply beautiful... I'll continue to follow your progress, as I'll be building a Soleil Royal at some point. Either the one from AL or my own build... :D
