Reid,

Older destroyers masts are very simple. You can do it very easily with strectched sprue. Simply start with the basic structures and go on adding details to satisfaction, as many as possible.
Use lyquid poly that evaporates very easily, and leaves very little marks.
Take a look :

At 1/400 scale, it is 360 pieces, as far as I can remember.
Best regards from Spain,

Willie.
