I am not so good with rigging, i like your paintings, your have nice touch!

Hi, this is nice work indeed, will you cover stern on the second planking?

I like your paintings, all reminds real ship! 

Shaping gallery windows frame, it is best place in to watter before bending.

Welcome on board, i like the boat you chose to build, it is not too big for the start of this hobby, good luck!

There you have a lot of rigging, i like it goes so smooth! Beautifull sails!

Creating gallery windows, it is so small and hard to handle, i still think to make windows frames white color to make it more visible, i am still not sure. Few work moments.

This is fine model, i hope to see it finished soon, i like wood color, all is solid!

This is first planking of the ship.Will make stern gallery with lights.

Preparing hull bulks.

This is start of the construction.

Metal canon holders.

I decided to make electricity on the boat.

Hello, this is my galleon ship construction. It is my second ship build. I will share photos of the build, hope you will like.

Friesland

The highly ornate Friesland dates from about 1663, when she was launched as part of the fleet of the "Seven Provinces" of the Netherlands. As part of the allied Aglo-French fleet, she took part in the Battle of Solobay in 1672.

Mamoli's double plank-on-bulkhead kit, based on reliable Dutch documentation, features 80 turned brass cannon and over 50 gilded metal ornaments. The model is a magnificent replica, complete with authentic deck detail. Cast zinc frames ensure proper squaring and alignment of gun ports, while remaining hidden from view. Silk-screened flags and cotton rigging line reflect the rig plan of the original. Thirteen sheets of plans and step-by-step instructions allow you to build an extraordinary showpiece.

Your windows looking like real, very fine detailing, did you use Micro Krystal Klear? I hope to learn making windows too in the future. Keep good working!

This is worth to place in the museum, seems alive. Enjoy it.

Thank you Vince, Max, Dan Vad, for reply, i will use these good ideas in the future.

I just got big ship building board to keep the ship in place and used metal frames from sides to keep it still. This will work for now.

thank you, i will use that!

I love the way she looks, all job is top quality as i see, enjoy it!

Hello, i was searching for mamoli ship kit wood test chart to recognize wood in the kit. I sow it in some kits, might someone can make photo of it?

thank you in advance!

This will be very nice ship, i will fallow your build. Fair wind!

Thank you for the answers Mark and Jim.I want to place long ship in the holder, i know it is very important step of the ship building. I just made some holder, but it is hard to think where to place bolts to hold the ship and later remove them easy, with no harm to the ship frame.

Here it is what i have made already. Any ideas are welcome. thank you!

Hello, i was searching info on ship holder while glue all bulks and start the kit. I have seen some people use some wood and place bulks in there to keep it stiil and then glue.

Is this the best thing to use? I have seen some rotating holders, are they necessary?

Please tell your opinion.

Very clean work, i like your hull planking. Hope no paint will cover it!

thank you!
