I used to have this kit many many years ago went through a spate of building sailing ships. Can't wait to see what you do with this one.

Hi all we have arrived safely. Wow it is hot, the staff are friendly and it is clean (the Internet sucks though) so probably no pics, but it is really nice.

The kit comes with stubby half cannons for the lower decks( I may live to regret this but Ive decided to open up the gun ports and make some whole guns to put behind them, since they are below decks and you wont see much of them they wont need to be too detailed or accurate, and I am only doing one side as they would never do a broadside on both sides, I mean what admiral in his right mind would choose to take the risk of a broadside on both sides at the same time) also it means I've only got to make 30 guns and carriages. I also have to make part decks for one side.

I'd say that the side that you cut out the gun ports looks better
