Thank you for all likes and comments. Now working on the deck furniture, it is a pleasure work compared to the hull. Few photos.

Thank you David, added few parts on the second deck, it is so small parts, very  hard to handle. All metal parts needs a lot of trim, sanding and painting, i guess it is because of very old kit. Few photos.

Really, really beautiful -- the model, but also the workmanship. 

 

You mentioned that this is an old kit.  I think it's now discontinued (Mamoli is out of business -- right?).  Where did you get it?

David

Thank you David, Scot, appreciate that. My work skills not so good, but i try to solve the problems. This is the kit not for beginner, a lot of tricky places, really hard to handle ! I am glad i have build one ship already. Got this kit on ebay, I liked it because it is old time galleon, that era of time was gold age for Dutch.  So today working on stern, all gold pieces need sanding, repaint, a lot of detailed work.

Few photos.

Thank you all for nice words. I keep working on the stern lights, i want to place little led light in them. Had to drill little hole for led light  to enter the light and also removed a piece of metal inside the light. Few photos.

I bet that spindle is hollow hence the reason for the wiring;)

Hi all, many thanks David, Jim, Ferit, OC, Mike for nice comments, it is nice to hear you like it. I was working on my long boat this week. All i got with the kit was nice wood hull, no ruder and rows. I still think how should look second rowboat holder, which should be on first boat, not sure what style to creat. Few photos of this week work.

Great work on the boats, they can be very crude sometimes (almost like kits are not interested in that detail)  but you have have done  some fine work on them.

Thank you for kind words. OC, they should place more attention on the long boats indeed! Work going on the lanterns for the ship, i will scratch build them and will place Pico led inside. I got Pico led warm white, but it looks like it is very cold, lucky they do not heat and is possible to paint them, i will use yellow or orange color to get warm light. Work on the lanterns are so small, it takes a lot of time. Few photos full size ship.
