Looks great Mike,

Very clean build, the etch work and rigging is very tidy. Thanks for sharing.

Any in progress shots of the conversion work, would be interested to see those.

A simple conversion of omitting the later weapons and backdating the mast arrangement along with building the structure aft of the base of the aft mast.
