Until now: 9 rows x 17 lines + 1 = 154 pieces

So 17 more plus the extra 30 ...

Chapeau bas! Monsieur Nicolas.

[LE BOSCO]

many thanks gentlemen indeed this triple stack at a look very Japanese
the work as continued on the rowboats of 11 and 13 meter
the rowboat of 13m on the maneuvering cradles



Then,the two type seen from above to see the oars Inside stored



Then, their location on the richelieu





The donkeys ears are painted



As you can see, they are painted in three shades of gray(Base paint, dark base and clearer base)this avoids having a too uniform effect
All the Richelieu is painted with these three shades
see you soon for the next progress
cheers
Nicolas
