Very nice build, I like the rigging and if you don't mind me saying, perhaps the paint work is a tad shiny, not that it would concern you, but have you tried a matt varnish on a finished subject ?

I finished one of these a couple of years ago. I actually like it better than the later one with the raised foc'sl. You can use paper strips for the crossed boat straps. Also when you weather, wash the canvas on the gun bags and boats. I found that it was very crowded around the forward life boats where the deck steps up. You are doing a fine job.
