Like I said, I try to build as much as I can of the model before I even start painting.
I did fuck up the rails on the bow of the ship when I was drilling a hole into the deck though, the drill bit snapped and It nearly destroyed the starboard side of the rails. Had to remove the rail and did my best to straighten it out, but it's still really fucked up.
The worst part was the bent parts of the rails near the front 8" gun turret. They were such a pain in the ass to build and they got messed up during the build as well, but I did manage to salvage them mostly.
