I put my ear back to my head and can hear to much :D

 

I'm waiting for my new false keel for the Santíssima Trinidad.

In the mean while I'll be preparing things for painting.

For the SotS of course.

So.....see picture.

paint job done....

I think building time 10000 hours and paint time 100000 hours :P

The false canons are in place so she got her teeth.

All the other canons still has to go on the decks.

Also paint and attach the decorations for the bow part.

@ Elijah,

 

Thanks and for the decorations I have hammerite metal paint.

You have to kinds of gold paint, the one that looks at new and one with a little grey in it.

I used that one.

Hi Hennie,

 

That is great news, congratulations.

 

May I advise you to open your buildlog now  That way everyone can place their response at your buildlog instead of here.
