Hello friends,
I think it´s time for a new update.
All canons are on their places now and fixed. The handrail is finished. And the poop deck is at his place and planked. It sounds like easy and fast work, but it was so much to do.
I am really happy with the result. What do you think about it?
Many greetings to all my friends and modellers all over the world!
:-)
Have a nice week!

Hello All, Thanks for the comments and Likes, as always very much appreciated.
just a small update, Not much to show for a few weeks worth of work but, I like how this came out. The hand rails in the picture was the fourth attempt, did not like how they was coming out.
I did start building the remaining Cannons today, as all was out for the day at home. (chores done first)..
Cheers

Thanks for that Sam, I found a few videos. (Video On Stopping Blocks)
Before I found the Video, I used 0.25mm copper wire and made hooks etc. then with the use of silver solder and flux, soldered the ends, ill paint the seen soldered parts.
I am missing a picture, of the between these, Ill make and take a new picture and add later.
Just need to add the coil of rope at the end. not chose how that will look yet.
cheers

To have or to leave it? is the question!
The Rest of the parts on the quarterdeck is coming along. cant really attach them to the ship atm due to space for xmas.
Cheers for now

Hello Rich, you can make flags for the Flag Lockers. I bought several sheets of coloured paper from the news agent, a pound shop may also have them. Then cut small rectangles of different colours small enough to roll up and fit in the lockers, voila, flags for the Flag Lockers.
Kind regards
Gary
