Sail & Sail Model - New Kit Belle Poule 1780 - 1:72 scale by Sail and Sail

Interesting for me was also on this build model, that all brass elements were not blackened.
Ringbolts, eyelets, muzzles etc..... this is off course a question of taste....

In a short comment, which could be mentioned towards the modeler.
He installed the hammock frames (I do not know the correct english term for them in moment) in a wrong direction. I guess it would be easy to change and correct - in green this should be the way they should be installed

As far as I know those are French foldable frames. Your photo, if I'm not wrong, shows English frames, fixed ones. French guys rotated them to be 90deg to put the hammocks in and then rotated back to be flush when not in use. BNR for example:
