The fore castle is painted.

The painting scheme on the back has been adjusted to more closely resemble the Anthony drawing.

 

Things to consider:

How to properly glue this forecastle to the hull.

There's no room for a knight to hoist the yard of the fore sail.

 

This build is now currently on hold; i'm now temporarily working on the yacht for the Amsterdam exhibition.

Thanks for the likes and comments. 

I don't know how long the break will last. As i don't have a plan or a schedule to follow. Sometimes I have to think first and build it in my head before I can continue with this model.

 You must  continue with this build soon. It’s not only the superb craftsmanship but the historical research leading to the model.

The next step is gluing the forecastle to the model.

 

Since I still haven't found an answer to the question of how the yard of the fore sail was raised, should I do it with or without a knight?

Without a knight is easiest, but then I'll be stuck later.

With, I'll first have to adjust the forecastle decks.

 

I'm currently enjoying building the Corel yacht the most. And I'm learning things on this (practice) model that I can later apply to Mary Rose.

Please be patient, to be continued.
