Thanks Michael, As I have an week off this week from work, I continued with some small items: first of all the new figures between the doors: and started with the assembly of the canons, I planned to make the strips using black paper.

Very nice done. I know how small these are so I can only say perfect. I like the way you are updating the Corel kit to this high standard, as sai before I will use some if your ideas in my Vasa

Hi Karl, I hope so also, but depends on what we have to do in our new house, I hope to have then a very big model workshop, indoor, heated etc and a lot of space for all my equipment. so it might take some extra time to fix all this. I keep you all posted

As long as our house is not sold, I can use all my spare time for modelbuilding. After the house is sold I expect the build will go on hold for a few months, I will keep you posted

Perfect Ulises.You have done a great job. Your build in those days on DDM was for me a reason to select also the Vasa as my new build over 3 years ago I now realize how much I have to do on my Vasa

I used the Humbrol painting for the figures and the smallest brushes I could find (0000), further a very stable hand and a lot of patience.
-

Hello Hans good to see you here also. -
The gunport (doors) are painted, sorted the lionheads and placed them on the ports as dryfit.
-
You are right, I made a miscalculation here. I now see why I missed one other figure on the side galleries, I thought I lost one Let me check if I can correct this, but that will be later this week as I have visitors this evening and I will not be allowed to go working in my model workshop
-
basic figures mounted on the stern some additional wooden strips needs to be added later. and a new set windows as the supplied windows were to big.
