 According to the manufacturing machine provided by the company, the bent part of the wiring wire is supposed to be worked on later.
I'm trying to get connected and working.

 I don't know the name of this part, but according to the drawings, it is marked with a slight curve, so I try to bend it with an iron after soaking it in water.
It's not thick, so it warps easily.

You need to cut it out by marking where the door is and where the window is.

 It was flanked with 1 mm thick walnut wood, and pear wood was used for the window rimming. 

After this preparation, we plan to work on the details later.. 

By the way, the ribs in this kit look like they have a lot of places to mend them. I need to clean up my ribs. There are a lot of steps.

Thin-slung bamboo was used to reinforce the keel 

It is necessary to attach the keel.
So, I ground the front part to about 8 mm.

Congratulations on your challenge.

I was going to do planking work on the main deck, but I had to work on the bow section first, so I went to the bow side.

When trying to install a bollard, the ribs interfered, so they were cut in the middle and installed.

The capstan used kit components.

Bollards were installed on the gundette before work on the main deck.

hello. I also gave up on making this kit. I'm glad you made this because I think it will be of great help to me.

HAPPY New Years.

Although the result is not as good as the brass wire, the result was satisfactory in its own way.

After sanding it with 220 sandpaper, I sanded and nailed the wood. Printer ink was used as the dyeing material.

Pear wood was used, and paper was inserted into the gaps.

Now let's start laying the deck.

I made a Carrige on the Gun Deck. These are hidden by the Main Deck and are not visible, so I made it simple.
I also made a door frame and attached it.

The cannon was painted using the three paints below.

The bag included in the kit was wide, so after cutting it in half, I sanded it down with sandpaper to shorten the width a bit.

Finished drilling the gun gate.

Draw the gunport and start the drilling work.

I was conflicted with one more thing.

This lowest part, the Gun Deck, is a place that cannot be seen unless the lattice window of the Main Deck is opened.

Reserve space for the Bowsprit in advance.

Remove the traces of bond on the side of the hull and perform reinforcement work.

It was sanded.

Sandpaper No. 100 to 150.

If there is another process of using adhesive above, it seems to be a bit slippery if sanded finely, so always finish sanding the first flanking surface at 150 grit.

The planking material of this kit is 1.5mm thick.
It is thinner than 2mm, so it is easier to handle than 1.5mm, but if there are many steps, the probability of holes increases when sanding.

After the first planking, sanding and gunfire work remained.

Before the first planking, do balsa wood filling on the side.

Spring is coming in Korea.
The daily temperature difference between morning and evening is more than 15 degrees.

Clean up the side of the ribs.
Where it's lacking, you have to cover it up and grind it.
