Really impressed especially the curves around the bow without twisting and gaps.

I'm having same problem think it is from the first pieces we put together the slots for the gun ports were not accurate, as we do keen to get going did not check, blame sloppy manufacturer easy way out.

I noticed earlier in your build the clamps to hold the frame of your transom to the poop deck while drying, again I struggled there I think it will catch me out later.

By coincidence I am at roughly the same stage as your model, I did not use the green plates I cut up tanganika veneer into 1/2 inch strips looks fine.
Hint inside the gun ports will be red paint them before planking around.

Thanks for your kind support, I do have option of painting maybe veneer was pushing it.
I have been checking further stages and checking off the parts, it seems I am short of gun door hinges and not enough gun doors (easy to make) may be worth a check to see if everything is in your kit.
