well got some more done on this one,


as it did look back heave ,I added water tanks to the front, [ dose have a real name,not a ship person real ]


and a bigger ram,which will have a ox head on it,


added some patch work to the hell,and once dry .I will start to add some color as the old girl dose look a bit on the bad side,


but think its coming along as I still don,t real know what I,m doing making it up as I,go,


and then next is working out some type of rudder for it,have a idea or 2 ,on what I,m doing,


well hope you like the progress,
