    I have followed Black Viking’s suggestion painting the ribs early. 
    I took this a step further and am painting the lapped panels shown before installing.

    Moving slowly along.
    Had a bit of confusion with the instructions re the step downs on the sides from the stern towards the bow.
    But I think I got it now.

    This is the most challenging part and needs a lot patience and care painting all the decorations.
    It was good to purchase the correct paints as shown in the comments on the Vasa official build .

    Maybe if you could photograph the work required and then take it to a lettering shop or maybe Officeworks and get them to print same to the scale required onto an adhesive backed vinyl strip , you can then strip the backing off and stick it to the hull.
    Maybe you can get some Lettraset.
    just a thought.

    At the planking stage and by following the pdf instructions it makes things much easier and clear albeit it doesn’t alway work as well as Gandales build.

    The hardest thing is waiting for the next months issue.
    It is interesting building the ship as in 2012 we actually visited the real thing in SWEDEN AND WAS SOMIMPRESSIVE.
    I am so pleased we were able to purchase this model direct from England.

    Well I have been quite busy and find the cut outs very precise and of great quality.
    following the DeAgostini pdf instructions are very informative and clear to follow.
