This is my attempt at the cross section. I put some middies hammocks on the port side of the orlop deck. The lower gun deck is constructed with the port side guns run out and the stbd guns stowed. The middle gun deck has the port side with hammocks rigged, and the stbd with the mess tables rigged. The upper gun deck has the port side guns run out and the stbd stowed. I found this build very enjoyable, and I hope I have done it justice. Constructive criticism welcome. Tony. Tony C attached the following image(s):

I think you have captured a real 'working ship feel' its nice and busy and you have put a lot of thought into how it would be presented.
Fantastic build my friend.

Hi Trev,
I am building the Victory, I started it before the cross section. I am up to part 113 and have all the rest of the issues. I just need to extricate the digit and I should be able to finish it in a couple of weeks.
Many thanks for looking in.
Regards,
Tony.

HI Hans,
I have a tip for you when you start the cross section. It is important that the ribs lie flat, and doubly important that the ribs are dead square to the keel. I must have fouled up, because when the planking reached the quarter deck, one end was 0.5mm higher than the other. It made no difference to the finished model, but, I know it is not 100%.
Regards,
Tony.
