Thank you, Ab, for the supportive comments.

I love the model in the photo you posted. Also I've been admiring the one on the cover the Nautical Research Journal from 2016 for quite some time.

I'm going to take your advice on the underwater body color.

On the rows of nails, I know they're not accurate, and I wondered why Shipyard would make the kit this way. I kind of like the way they look, as they are a change from most models I build, which are usually wood. But, I will be applying some kind of paint to the upper hull, so the nails will be subdued to some degree. And, they might even get completely covered up in the process.
