Nice progress!
I'm about to build the same ship, also by Occre. Are you nailing the planks to the bulkheads as well as glueing? Or making any dowels?

 

And what method are you using for plank bending?

 

Apologies for my rudimentary questions. I'm about to embark on a task I have never performed before :)

It's a nice one to build.
I assume you meant the 2nd planking? I am still not out yet.
For the rest everything is glued, no nails.
For bending I use among other things a soldering iron.

curving the strakes with notches made with a razor saw.

These notches make to the maximum 1/3 of the width of the strake. 

The parts to be notched are determined by marking the places where the strake leaves a rectilinear position.

Ha, you haven't started on the second layer, which is in my humble opinion worse than the first. You can get away with tiny errors on that first one ... not on the second. You're doing fine
