Such patience to not have it already n the model. Well done!  The gangway is more tricky than it seems.

How do you decide when to put the pieces in place permanently?

Thanks for the kind words and likes, guys.
I can't wait to get all these little things in their place on qdeck and fcastle, but for now I'm keeping them safely stored away.
It's both to keep the dust off while I work on the final chapter and to keep them from getting damaged.
I'll add them at the very end.
But something is there...
I made the deadeyes (they will be added to the model at the end as well)
The ladder - I have to paint the frieze and then glue the main channel.
The other channels are already glued on, as well as the fenders and the chesstrees and the swivel stocks.
Partly also the gangways.


And now the main thing, I'm working on the last chapter.
The headtimbers are in place.
The headrails are ready but not glued yet.
But I've finally permanently glued Catheads.
And right now I'm currently preparing the Catheads support.
And here is some photo

Lookin great.   The deadeyes and steps will blend in perfectly.   The channels look great on the model also.   Good luck with the headrails.  Take your time there.

Fred, I am sorry that I do not have any pictures of the making of the entry steps.
But the method was the same as for the fancy moldings.

 

I'm slowly moving on here are some photos

Thank you so much guys for all the comments and likes.
And I agree that this part was hard, but somehow I managed to finish it.
And now I just have to finish all the postponed parts...

That really looks great.  Well done.   If you havent built many headrails those certainly look like you made them look easy.

did you stain your Cherry wood or just apply WOP?

Hi
no staining on the hull and deck, just WOP.
I've only stained deadeyes to match the rest.
