the channels are precut ply parts, the slots were too big, I filled them and cut them again. The chainplates also preformed from a single piece of wire, soldered along the vertical edge. Some of them came loose, and I had to solder them. The joint must withstand drilling a hole, where they are fixed to the hull.

My lion needed some severe surgery to get him im the correct position:

I wanted his claws on the bow, and his head where you indicated. So I amputated his front legs, and glued them on, almost a centimeter lower on the body (filling all the gaps with some putty)

I also discarded the metal sides of the galleon, replacing them with some cardboard material. That made it possible to get the scroll somewhat lower, the lion somewhat higher, so it matches (more or less). My bowsprit is on top of the scroll, should be slightly more space between them

Still not finished... everything boxed up for a move.....
