Your work looks great, but I am not a fan of planking the stem of vessel, as most were made of solid wood pieces and never planked.
Some more progress. Railings are done. That was a satisfing progress. Rudder underway. What I am realizing is that the small Chopper nails, #49 in the parts manual. I have used 58 on the rudder. I need 28 for gun ports and I still need them for the chain plates for deedeyes. The kit came with 80 pieces. It looks like I am going to be short some 20 maybe 30 pieces. I am wondering if anyone has had the same issue?

I'm certain that those copper nails are readily available from a supplier like Model Expo or BlueJacket Ship Crafters.
A short comment to the hinges of the rudder before you fix everything.
The order is unfortunately not correct and should be corrected - otherwise the ship will loose his rudder blade very fast
red are the pins and in green would be the correct location of the hinge - or the hinges installed at the hull should move downwards
as examples
