Hi Martyn. Build looking really fantastic. Your carvings look extremely good. While I have a long way to go to reach your current progress I will be looking back to those posts of carvings. They certainly go well with the rest of the ornate structures. I don't know if I'm going to be capable though of such intricate work. Regards George Building HMS SOTS

Thank you all for the nice comments Have at long last got my next issues Started with the stern decorations painted and dry brushed then fitted next was the belay racks . I cut and marked out the holes then drilled with a .5 drill then a 1mm drill and with a 1.5mm to open them up to get a good fit with the pins . The large pin rack I fitted to brass pins to the ends for a little more support Thanks for looking rgd Martyn Martyn Ingram attached the following image(s): Building ? Completed. Soliei Royal .
