Hello,
today there is only little progress to report. The two bits behind the mast are ready, and two sheaves at the stern are built-in. There I have to do some fine tuning tomorrow and also to set in the sheaves.

Hello,
Today I've finished the deck so far. Everything is smooth and sheer. I left the knees at the back end a little longer, you never know.

He completed the roughing of the hull of the Soley Royal ship from Diagostini, which means that the outer shell of the hull is formed from primary slats. This is the main stage of construction, after which the processing of the hull begins (sanding, putty) and the transition to finishing and other work.

Hello,
the wheels. They kept me busy this week, and other things like my garden. But now they are in the raw ready. I think I must not explain the pictures
and then that So, go back to start, and try again
This time I made the beads before I cut the rim loose. The shipwright is pleased.
In the foreground you see some of the spokes. They are from mammoth ivory. So, if you hear nothing from me the next weeks, I'm busy or I had thrown it all away. I hope not.

Patrick.
As always so excellent - my desire is to understand, learn and be able to actually detail in scale as you have - In my next life 🙂.
PS: Have not posted at MSW in over a year -for my log - but need to - not much but 🤔 on my list.
I (we) have so appreciated you logs over the years - I've learned so much from your skill set....thanks!

Until this latest group of photos, I didn't realize this is a "scratch" build project.
All the more impressive.

After the summer holidays, slowly "back to work".
The area under the forecastle is a bit more detailed (guesswork style), but not much of this will be visible later.
With the catena (dry fit) and knees.
With the bowsprit. dry fit
there are also hawse holes now.

Kevin,
Great work !!! - I saw your image on "at a glance" -- Did you add the oar hole covers, or did those also come with the kit? Nice detail.....
I'm waiting for the 1/35th to be available in the US - shipping directly from the Ukraine is very "OUCH".
Again great work - looks awesome indeed.
Need to get back into this hobby - been MIA for too long......
Cheers,

The arch under the fore castle
Contrary to previous assumptions, this did serve as access from the upper deck to the fore castle.
The construction was done step by step.
The carved arch.
"stair, ladder" not yet in place
Some "oops" work was required. The fore castle deck was too high relative to the rear castle deck.
Otherwise, the walkway above the anti-boarding net wouldn't have been at the correct height.
dry fit (and a bit uneven at the moment, as I can see in the photo)

Good evening everyone, thank you for comments and likes
deck plates- not finished yet
two sheets of plates have to be removed, separated and sanded,
i numbered each piece of mine prior to removal, as i was bound to mix them, the instruction don't show much, other than where they go, but great online tutorial
then sprayed all the edges with walnut, sanded them with 3500 grit pad, repeated, then sprayed over with Oak and sanded again
Been 34 deg in the mancave, too warm for me, so im slightly behind, where i would like to be, not a race, im pleased with the way it is turning out, But wood glue, is a real bug bare, even with just using a cocktail stick to apply. So before she is completed, i will remove some of the worst offenders and open them to reveal the hold
no plates are glued down at this stage

Day 8 Planking
Having never done a clinker build, i was expecting it to be far more difficult than it actually is.
The boards are made up in two halves, sanded then lined up against the rebates on the frames, frame 8 (bow and stern) is not a problem, but does need adjusting each time a run goes in, numbers 9 and ten, don't do much other than force the wood in the right direction
Before starting a temp piece is put in, and removed at a later date, all the boards then butt up against this, it also extends along the keel
board row number 1
row 2, and so on
i am finding the boards very dry and brittle at times, especially around the kerf joints, the whole assu will be stained so will experiment on best way to fill, and ensure the stain will take to those repaired areas
