started mucking about with the channel's , moving them down one deck , and filling in the heller holes , apparently their are less shrouds on the 1765 model

this where I am up to , shortened the forecastle deck , turned the grate's around on the same deck , shortened the main deck [I am yet to drill the hole for the mast ] , and I moved the sunlight back on the poop deck

I figured the carronade's , should have some sort of wheel's , so I cut up an old cannon from my soleil royal , much better , also added a height adjuster and some link's for the rigging.

Here's a picture of one at Portsmouth Historic Dockyard, close to the Victory - looks like you've nailed it!

I really don't know how this bit work's , I think it might protect the chain's , in the earlier structure .

Just fought up with this one and can I say WOW
I've never really got into ship building ( in the model sense ) so I take my hat off to you
The detail and the historic accuracy is amazing and who doesn't love the Victory !!
I have been thinking of a Titanic for a while but I'm definatly going to watch more on the ship builders on here for future ideas

Love the cannons and all the detail you have put into this

Great stuff

Robert
