Coming from you, this is high praise, thank you very much!

The fighting tops are usefully large, and the doubling of the ratlines to the
tops is clever - giving the effect of a nice backward sweep.
|
yes, using the new ratline part helped.

The steeper than usual tumblehome works very well, and the captain’s cabin is
well integrated.

thanks, I like how the latticed widdow kicks-out (3 4 5 right triangle)
| |
Seven centre sections? Wow.
My only criticism would be the placing of the mainmast - it looks to far
forward to me. (Though I like that the fore and main masts are more or less
the same height - that’s how frigates should be!).

You are right, but to keep the shrouds and channels the same, it would have to
come back 6 studs, too much I felt. And I would lose another quarter deck cannon
pair, if I wanted to keep them aft of the main mast.
g’day mate!
