Thank you, friends, for your replies.

Sorry for long pauses between replies, but I´m very busy with work around my family house this summer.

Abhovi: Thank you for explanation, Ab. I think your picture explains this part of plan. Am I right ? There´s no problem to change some planks after gluing of a keel to create this effect.

OK, fine. Just worried if you knew...

[firdajan2]

Dear friends,

I finally found a little time to continue on the model. I made some doors, keel and improved planking on the lower part of keel considering to plans and Ab´s instructions. I hope to have more time next months

It is a great hull planking technique.

Super job Jan,it's really coming together!

[abhovi]

Nice , Firdajan. How do you plan to do the wales?

[firdajan2]

Thanks, friends.

abhovi: I made them in the dark brown color, as 1 st wale, and as on each of my ship. Maybe it is unrealistic, but I do it always by this way. I think the result will be quite good ( as on San Salvador, for example ).

A lovely smooth hull, Jan!

[B-Manic]

I like the dark brown Jan, it looks great

Here its something to consider about wales:

This is a beautiful picture by Willem van de Velde, with several ships on it. None of them has dark wales, except the yacht left in the background. Draw your conclusions...
