This is hard work on the eyes.They look ok until I zoom them up on the ipad.
So that is the last time I zoom.

Cheers for all the likes guys.
A bit more work done on the Vasa
The stem has now been built and painted and the messenger port cut into the side of the hull as Deag seems to have missed this out?. I have also fitted the rudder as the instructions tell you to fit it later in the build when all the galleries are glued on and I didn't like the thought of leaning the ship over while trying to fit it . A bit of a heads up the rudder pintails are very hard and snap easy unless you soften the metal first by heating them up over some heat and letting them cool slowly, hope this helps.
Back to painting lots more carvings.

Thanks for the comments and likes guys.
The decorations have now been fitted to the stem . I went with EJL idea with using epoxy to give me a lot more wriggle time to get them in the right position.
More to follow
