Phew. here are pictures demonstrating how much effort those bulwarks took to make real, turns out quite a lot, especially solo. With the exception of the counter, they do not really show the capping rails which have really worked. Instead there’s planks, knightheads, stub tenons, a couple of carlin extensions for good measure, and the very beginning of the vessels nameboards. Expect pics of the complete job with taffrails very soon, we glued and screwed them the other day.
