Day 13 - 7 Hours Work
Following up the previous staining issue.. I've finally decided to re-sand the hull and stain again. Well, it is not so satisfying but already improved compared to the previous one..

Obvious defects can be seen at the especially at the bow side before I start fixing.. After re-sanding and staining, all major defects are covered. :)

While waiting the stain to dry, I continued on the deck planking.
Same method as the hull planking is used, I scribed one side of the woods using an 8B pencil to give better details.

The poop deck is not set yet, I just put it up for photoshooting. It's not done so because I'll still need to add light to it..
Treenails are also added using mechanical pencil, and finally a natural stain on it to provide protection.

Now the Bulwark.. I will need to cut the gun ports out before I can apply colour on it. I transferred the distance between gunports from the full scale plan provided, mark them on a piece of long cardboard to get better accuracy.

I drilled around 4-6 holes at both sides first, to help cutting them out.
