That's looking very nice, Tobias. The imitation with tissue paper is a nice option. I'll keep that in mind for the deck of my model.

Good evening.
@Mawa @RogerD @OlivierF @GrantTyler @Mirek @Peter Voogt thank you very much for the kind words and all the likes left.
The deck is finished and the various structures such as mast holders, anchor winch holders etc. that go through the deck have been adjusted. Next I'll start with the nails (square iron bolts). I contacted GD for this because I didn't know whether they were iron or tree nails. In the French Navy, iron bolts were used for the main deck, gun deck etc. and sealed with Galipot. For this I'm using the homemade square wire with a thickness of 0.4mm again.

Lovely work Tobias! The square nails will be a very nice detail.
Very, very good. Saubere Sache.
Beautiful and meticulous work Tobias.

It's looking really good, Tobias
Love the square nails and envy the precision with which they are applied. Great work.
I like it very much - clean and accurate work like always
You are showing us a very nice square-nailing, Tobias. They are beautiful in proportion to the size of the planks.
Regards, Peter
Today is another one of those beautiful days when you can do the work outside, nailing the deck.

Absolutely stunning work and photography! The beams, ribs, and deck planks are all so crisp and sharp. The treenails look like the carpenters used plumb lines to lay them out in such an exact manner. Thanks for sharing your wonderful work!!
