Hans,
Those two ports might be air ports for letting fresh air in below decks and also used as loading ports for supplies, etc. from the ship's boats.

Hi Niklas!
Looks as you're off to a good start, as previously noted.
From the photos, I take it that this is not your first build, right?
"Niklas", that sounds very Swedish to me..

E.mar reacted to Drazen in Royal Caroline 1749 by Mile - FINISHED - Scale 1: 35
To Omega 1234:
Concerning the carvings, I can tell here for Mile something since Mile is not using a computer much…
Mile is doing carvings out of the pear wood. The tools are made by himself and out of old drills. Some of them I show here on the photo so you can get an impression. The carving procedure is following:
Print a sculpture in scale of the model on a paper
Glue the picture on the piece of wood (pear wood)
Cut the contour of the sculpture (around the picture) with a fret saw
Start carving – leaving the upper contours untouched and carving away the areas you do not need
Practice, practice, practice…
My remark: Boxwood would be even more suitable for the carving work, but the pear wood is also a good material too.
