question for those who have kept up with the build... I am looking to build out of sequence complete outer hull, then deck works then bow and gallery before doing the remaining masts and spars etc. are there any construction issues i should be aware of if i do this?

I would do the deck fittings after the gallery. You may want to turn the model upside down to complete the bottom of the gallery, so you don't want delicate deck fittings in place until after that is completed.
