Your ship is very interesting, must be powerful to fight on the Trafalgar, what was the crew number? I like the wood color, reminds rosewood.

Yes, i find out full windows set looks much better, found this on your ship log! Today placed first deck gun carriages which are under the second deck. I am still not sure if it is necessary to paint in red gun holes. Now working on the second deck planking. Few photos of my work.

Hello, i was searching info of Friesland, found it is based on real ship which existed - Hohenzollern model which was of a dutch 17th century 2 decker. This is one photo i found of this ship model. I am still in search of photo real ship, which was destroyed on WWII.

This is nice to see big lady come alive, it is pretty ship you make! What type off varnish do you use? it is glossy?

Thank you for likes! Having fun fittings gun ports, i think i will use stock gun ports for the main deck, they look not too bad, will paint them black later. I used wood filler for the hull, later sanded it all, it helps to make shape look nice! Work goes on.
