  1. Reconstruction of the stem The plywood parts are replaced by pear, there is still sanding to be done I see in the photo. A first layer of paint With a solid base for the figurehead (dry fit) The wall of the rear cabin is painted and placed. And the planking of the upper deck has started. Planking ready, still needs finishing.

  3. Nice paint job Red,yellow,white... familiar 😉. The lower deadeyes of the main mast had 7 holes. The rest probably less. The holes in these deadeyes are not drilled symmetrically. You can always drill a few extra.
  4. and usually at an inconvenient moment 🙈 It was a bit too much. We would all get seasick looking at the result 🤢
  5. On this drawing the keel is 15cm. From keel to first mast top 13,5cm From keel to second mast top 18cm total length of main mast, from keel to top 20cm.
  6. Thanks Steven These shields are more like panels, only the upper deck of the rear castle should have shields. But it will take a while before I get there. And some may be disappointed, but there is no room for toilet facilities at the front. Little progress. Since I retired a year earlier than planned, I am building faster than the research I had already done. In the meantime, more is happening on the Corel yacht kit model Only extra holes have been made in accordance with the rear castle. And after measuring with the laser, the entire fore castle appeared to be a bit crooked in relation to the hull. This has now been corrected. If I didn't tell anyone, no one would have noticed... 😇
  7. replacing plywood parts for pear wood And some juwelry (99cents /bag) as extra decoration round the cannon ports and holes for the anchor cable
  8. Congratulations on this very nice diorama in a bottle. It was very pleasant to follow the whole story of building it.
