Final Build Sequence HMS Iron Duke

Crunch time is coming for my Iron Duke. I've done three ships so I know there's a kind of module approach that's different than tanks and planes. However, I've never built a ship with serious weathering, PE railings and rigging. I want to try all three here. I'm kind of shooting blind here. This is the plan: if someone can see that this is wrong-headed, I'd really like to know before than after Pearl Harbor gets bombed.

1. All parts, except for a few tiny bits, are assembled into modules. For now except for some small deck items that I want washed, everything stays off the deck. (I haven't glued deck or hull either.) First will be filters and washes. I'll do the superstructure in its modules - ditto with the turrets. Not sure if I want pigments at all, so that will be left off.

2. After filters and washes (general and pin) I'm going to put on PE railings. Presuming I don't throw the kit out the window ...I wonder if this wouldn't be the time to put on a satin or flat finish. (kind of leaning to satin rather than a dullcoate like flat.) Normally finish would be last (unless I use straight pigments) - little worried here that it could screw up the rigging if done later.

3. Assemble just enough of the kit to rig. Try my hand at rigging. (Got fine fly line and lots of blue tack: for some reason the technique sounds so nuts that it must work. BTW: found a source for real mucilage from a place that makes dollhouses and uses it to attach little bits of wall paper. Who'd have thunk that one.)

4. Connect hull and deck. Attach all remaining modules and small parts. If not done earlier, finish the ship with satin or matt. Tidy. Consider possible use of pigments (funnels maybe: I'd like to put some on the guns but that's artistic license I'd suppose.) I never know what to do with pigments until looking at the last beast: usually find something. They do bring out the inner child.

This look ok?
