Looking good Daniel. I did notice in the picture you showed of the real ship there is only one central door rather than the two. Not that it matters much but I wonder if a single door would be more practical and historically correct. Do the plans show two doors?

The real Statenjacht Utrecht ship has 2 doors. See below pictures.
But remember that this ship has never existed and does not need to have any accuracy or be as the Statenjacht Utrecht.
Due to that, each Pegasus model built is totally different. Is open to what the modeler want to do and their skills.
But each Statenjacht Utrecht model built are done following the real one, the best they can.

Thanks for the clarification Daniel. That other picture must have been a different ship then. I'll just sit back and watch from now on and do what I do best...drink!!

It is the same ship. But the angle of the picture make it looks like there is only one door.
Enjoy the beer!!!!

Wow! Those carvings are fantastic! She's going to be a real beauty!
Here is my 'WOW! WOW!!! 
The stern looks gorgeous dressed by those carvings. One small observation, however, The holes for treenails look very prominent 'like holes'. Not sure if this is the results of Macro, I suggest you feel the holes possibly from PearWood treenails, or using wood filler (same color). Elmer's has line of fillers in a tube with different colors. My choice would be... you got it...- treenails

The others are much smaller. I didn't want to start covering them with putting. So my choice, for now is that they will stay as they are.
BTW the cherry putting fit very well with the pear wood.

Now the Pegasus is starting to look as I imagine it. I will post again when the stern cabin is finished.

Look at you go Daniel! You'll be counted among the masters in no time!
One concern - one of the doors now leads to a groin smashing railing???
