Hello, I’ve made the two frontal pieces from scratch because i sanded to much.. Anyways, they are not glued yet, still drying.. I like the result. Balsa is amazing to work with..

Step 26 ✅ Made some mistakes before and now the bow is a bit different. But it’s fine, my second project will be better 🤞🏻 (Masts only for the photo) 😅

Testing.. I’ve made many mistakes with the bow.. made some arrangements and it looks better..

@DrKThanks! after the first planking, I’ve used only sandpaper. A round tool with sandpaper is good for the curves.. I had to remove almost all the nails, because sanding with nails is not easy 😬 This is my first model ship, I don’t have all the knowledge about ship modeling, in this forum you have masters than can help you a lot, more than myself 😅

@BranPie i know what it feels like, it happens with me sometimes. After work, I arrive at home tired, wanting to relax/sleep. And the ship is the last thing i do after my duties.. that’s why i do little steps at a time. Let’s get started! I’m also publishing my work on the Occre page on Facebook so it helps as well.

@BranPie thanks. Next step, planking the hull. Lets see how it goes 🤞🏻

Hello, I’ve made some progress, not much, as usually. Tried wood putty for the first time and all the holes are now covered..

Thanks @BobG! This forum and the YouTube videos help me a lot. The Occre instructions are very helpful as well, for a beginner like me. 😅
