If you want to build the ship I will advise you to avoid some of the traps in the kit.
Trap 1: The bulleyes in the hull. Make sure that the sheer of the bulleyes is accurate. Normally I super-dislike not using the hull of the kit. But this time I only took the rough shape from the kit but painted them black and stamped out millions of bulleyes. That had the advantage that a) I could make a new sheer line that was accurate. Using the hull parts of the ship the bulleyes are whereever they want to be, but never in line /sheerline and b) small mistakes of stains from glue can be corrected very easily.
Trap 2: The hull parts must be lengthened in some cases
Trap 3. Make sure that all decks have a slight camber, which is not included in the kit
