The first try looked to massive once I had a chance to step back and look at it from a distance. I have decided to change the ratlines by getting rid of the outer lines and spreading the remaining a bit wider. Now it looks much more balanced.
Here is a direct comparison.

I can still use them for a larger ship like the galleon :-)
Up until now I always cut the advanced ratlines manually, but I think this time I will go for the auto cutter. There are so many!
Now I need to tackle the upper mast with crows nest and upper ratlines and then we need square sails!
Until next time, have fun and keep building!
