This is a few pictures of the quarter deck galleries. I had a lot of trouble with the carvings they looked so bad I went with a simpler design.

This set of phots shows the gun port wreaths installation. I decided to postpone the frieze and other decorations until the hull is complete.

Cap Rail and Bulkhead Break
The cap rail with gold molding was added next. The bulkhead break pieces were precision laser cut and fit very well.

Thanks, Mugje! The kit contained a large variety of woods that makes the model colorful.

Poop Deck lining, Hull painting.
I used Myrtle wood for the lining and dark blue paint for the hull painting.
Progress photos.

I finally got around to starting the glue up. I used double sided tape to tape the fore side of frame 25 to the template sheet and glued part 25A to it. This was followed by 26 and 26A. The floor frames (25A, 26A, 27A etc.) rest directly on the keel up until frame 32. The futtock frames sort of "float" above the keel, sandwiched in by the floor frames in front and behind them. The "offset" of these frames is important in establishing the shape and esthetics of the hull.
Jodie's build log explains this well. The distance between the bottom of frames 26 and 27 and the keel is supposed to be 7.4mm and 11.0 mm respectively. Mine were very close to those numbers. So far, so good!

Rudder
The rudder consists of five CNC cut pieces that fit very well together very well. The rudder and stern post needed to be beveled at 45 degrees and the top of the rudder needed to be trimmed and shaped at the poop deck.
