Well, there is nothing to say I guess. It's just wonderful. And your craftsmanship. You're true blacksmith.. I'm enjoying to watch this build and this is a confess I'm a litte jealous :) 

 

Good luck with that! 

 

Cheers, Bugra.

Thank you gentlemen for your kind words.

 

Today I will show to the gun ports lids a special detail.
The lids in the area of ​​bugs are doubled for protection from the anchor with planks.

Hello friends,
lately I hardly have time for the model building.
Currently I'm still working on the gunports lids.

 

Meanwhile, a modeller colleague has created a video of the La Creole.

 

See here: LINK

 

I hope you enjoy it.

astonishing detail. You have done an outstanding model. The plans you have also look very well detailed.

Thanks for posting you build.

Thanks all!

Meanwhile, all gunports lids were fitted into the ports.
Only the last pair is still to be finished. They are for the gun port in the bow on the port side.
This gun port is a special case, because of the rounding of the bow.
The fit of this cover halves at this place requires special attention.
This couple also receives a dropfront as a protection against the armature.
