I sewed mast hoops on the main sail and seized the gaff. I think it's much easier to do it while the mast is not installed yet.
Launch of the ship "Twelve Apostles" in 1:48, Master Korabel [COMPLETED BUILD]
The main mast is assembled.
Looking very good - the mast and sail will look very good installed on the model 
I received some renewed details from the manufacturer, so back to the hull. The aft platform for carronade is ready.
For the hull I choose the most simple color scheme, it's presented on some paintings of Ivan Aivazovsky.
I decided to model the situation when the boat a moment ago has stopped the fire, set sails and now is promptly leaving her position. In the meantime the carronade is being moved aft.

I like your idea of how to stage the ship for display.
The work if grand and looks so beautiful. If your showing this just after firing, maybe some weathering of seats from crew or water beating the outside of hull.

Good idea - to have a "story" behind
The bowsprit and its rigging. But first don't forget to put on the bowsprit the jib-traveler.
Beautiful Vladimir.
The main mast now stands in its place, so I start its rigging.
Very good work.
The main stay and its sail - it's more comfortable to set them together.
The jib is quite simple to set.
Next is the gaff-topsail.
I also moved the jib-halliard strop higher, because the jib is a bit longer than necessary and I couldn't straighten it properly.
