The arch under the fore castle Contrary to previous assumptions, this did serve as access from the upper deck to the fore castle. The construction was done step by step. The carved arch. "stair, ladder" not yet in place Some "oops" work was required. The fore castle deck was too high relative to the rear castle deck. Otherwise, the walkway above the anti-boarding net wouldn't have been at the correct height. dry fit (and a bit uneven at the moment, as I can see in the photo)
-
Reconstruction of the aft wall of the upper deck. Drawing of what remains. Result. Swivel guns may have originally been placed here. That's why two holes were provided in the beam on each side. Whether these were still present after the renovation...? The supports in the middle are a guess. The drainage channel of the deck above; once painted, you won't notice the wire anymore.
-
Construction of the various hatches on this deck. Eight small hatches, above each gun on the deck below. None are identical. It looks sloppy, but so be it... Larger hatches are provided in the middle. An anchor cable will later "disappear" under one. A ladder will remain partially visible under another. The mast is aligned, straight across the width and leaning slightly backwards along the length. Capstan under construction Thanks for following and likes

About the NRG
If you enjoy building ship models that are historically accurate as well as beautiful, then The Nautical Research Guild (NRG) is just right for you.
The Guild is a non-profit educational organization whose mission is to “Advance Ship Modeling Through Research”. We provide support to our members in their efforts to raise the quality of their model ships.
The Nautical Research Guild has published our world-renowned quarterly magazine, The Nautical Research Journal, since 1955. The pages of the Journal are full of articles by accomplished ship modelers who show you how they create those exquisite details on their models, and by maritime historians who show you the correct details to build. The Journal is available in both print and digital editions. Go to the NRG web site (www.thenrg.org) to download a complimentary digital copy of the Journal. The NRG also publishes plan sets, books and compilations of back issues of the Journal and the former Ships in Scale and Model Ship Builder magazines.
