    You must be very skilled. It must be very difficult to so amazing details in a small scale.

    speaking of an update........
     
    I was racking my head,  trying to come up with a unique helm room for this boat.   I wanted to give it the same shape as the lower structure,  but in my head,  it just didn't look right.   so I went a little taller....2 3/4,  as opposed to the 2 1/4 I did with the lower structure,  and I traced out the windows.
     

     
    it was cemented together,  making sure it was square.
     

     
    then the front parts were cut and traced out for windows as well.
     

     
    seeing the way the grain was running,  I knew I was going to have problems........and I did.   the window frames broke a couple of times.....and I fixed them,  not wanting to waste the wood,  or make new parts.  it was even a bigger hassle trying to cement the front walls to the rest of the helm room.   but I did it.
     

     

     

     

     
    positioned on the deck,  I ran a few thoughts through my head.   now that I have the structures assembled,  I can trace them out on the decks and set into motion,  the idea that's been bouncing around in my mind.   I really should get some cap rails on there too.   the inner bulwarks and the bottom paint is going to be the red primer.......the rest of the scheme is soon to follow.
     

     

     

     
    it will look better, once I smooth out the rough spots and get some paint on it.
