Friesland 1663 by mrcc - Mamoli MV24 - 1:75

Still some small plank pieces to lay at the bow and along the keel, but almost done!

 

Little diversion though with the castings at the stern; applied the metal primer and getting ready to paint...

I am very unsure of the painting scheme at the stern as all sorts of different options on Google images.

 

My preference at the moment may not be historically accurate???

 

PS These casting are probably 40 years old and given the molds were relatively "young" at the time of casting, I have to say the primed stern decorations look very good to me.
