 Hi All Well she's done, all the rope loops have been added and the flags and then a general tidy up was done . I missed the metal loop on the dolphin chain but thats been put right now. The last thing to be fitted was the figure head which is a two part casting that has only a small amount of detail on it, I was going to paint it as a lady should but decided the she needed to be gold in the end, This is quite fitting as the meaning of Gulnara is either pomegranate-rose or Sweet girl so she has become the golden girl on my ship. The stand is provided with the kit but wasnt going to stain well so it got painted gloss black. As a kit I would highly recommend it to anyone who fancys something different, she has some challenges but nothing that cant be overcome. All in all a build that has given me a great deal of pleasure and will make a fine display once I have sorted out a case. More pictures in the finished build gallery  .

Beautiful work Andy, a real masterpiece. I think your decision to paint the stand black was a wise choice as was the gold figurehead. A great addition to your collection. Happy building David
