Very nice work Marsalv!

Installation of deck beams. Before other installations and bulkheads are installed, the deck beams are fixed with an auxiliary fixture.

I decided to finish the outer planking above the wales first before installing the interior equipment. The first thing I had to do was cut out the holes for the gunport and oars.

I continue with molding rails.

[marsalv]

I started planking between the wales and molding rails.

Planking between wales and molding rails completed.

Looks really nice !  Question - it does not look like you simulate caulking on your models or if so its very subtle ?  

[druxey]

Excellent work on that drop plank.

[marsalv]

Thank you guys.

To Chris - I don't like the black caulking between the planks to be too prominent, so the caulking here is created only by blackening the edge of the plank with a pencil so that it is not too prominent. The only exception is the planks on the decks, where the caulking is created with black paper. Here this color contrast makes a bit more sense (at least from my point of view).

I continue by planing the "thicker" part of the bow.

[ChrisLBren]

It does - thank you V !!!!

The cutaway port side of the hull in the last photo looks really cool!

[marsalv]

Thank you druxey.

I continue with the planking of the stern. First it was necessary to make another rather complicated part defining the extension of the sides at the stern. The part is "shaped" in all three axes and the production is quite complex.
