Super quick build Peter, it's looking really good.

It was hard enough keeping the masts something like straight and plumb doing the rigging on my diddy 1/700 battleships. It must be very tricky to achieve on such a big a scale as this, so good luck. Rather you than me, but I'm sure you'll crack it....
