So i added all the decorations at the bow - as always i had to make a few adjustments - especially to the bow mouldings - so that everything looks as much as the real thing as possible.
The shield and crown are mounted just temporarily - to see how everything fits.
Well that`s all i can do at the hull for now - so the next step will be the main-mast!DaDokta attached the following image(s): Greetings,

Looking good Walter... Problem must be with your tablet I think. When I look on my PC, tablet and mobile phone the pics all look fine to me with no problems in orientation.... Regards Alan

Thanks guys!
Unfortunately when carving the main topmast i cut my left index finger quite deeply - which required a few stiches. So i`m forced to wait for the healing until further progress!
Also the topmast was ruined in the process of the knife slipping - so i will have to buy a new dowel!(also the blood on the wood didn`t look that good - but as i`m painting this wouldn`t have been a problem :) )
So this is what i`ve done regarding the undermast so far:DaDokta attached the following image(s): Greetings,

I finished the main mast.
I had to do make some adjustment to the lower end of the topgallant-mast - otherwise it would have had slight forward tilt, which looked unnatural! DaDokta attached the following image(s): Greetings,
