It rubbed off on you Monica, you've got a good skill there.
well I got my cannon,and grills,yesterday,so I can continue on with the build, 9_9
I,m so lucky that the barrels are long so they will poke out of the gun ports,need to cut more ribbing as well,lucky I,pickup some pine,
packing strips the other day at the hardware , :D As you can see from the last pic,it dose get more involved with the planking as I move past the water line, O.o
bottom deck .is were I will start,which is the sleeping one,then above that the 12 ponders,9,7 ponder cannon,s as show in the last pic,so it will,
be slow,But I,m in no rush,
hope to get some of the ridding done tomorrow, 9_9

Lot's of great work going into this Monica .
.
well got some more done on this one today, O.o
cut out some more bits of ribbing,these jigsaws are hard to dive, o.O ,As you can see why I,did need to get the grills,for the width of the cargo ,drop downs,
and my free packing pine strips, from the bin,know they would come in handy , :D
and then beside them on the cannon decks are ball holders,
still need to add in the rest of the keel,and two smaller,sisters of keel,then I can add the ballast and water barrels,
made a set of steps for one end,from sleeping deck to lower hull,
also need to add in side supports for the beams as well,
the next deck will be the sleeping one,with a few odds and ends,and was thinking maybe leave out some flooring so,your able to see each deck as well, ? O.o
hope you like the progress so far,
