Here's a bit of blasphemy:
I had a damaged Victory and a Principe de Asturias that I just didn't like because of the scale difference. I did like the stern though.

Please tell us more Dobbs I do like the change. Will it fly the Spanish flag then?
I also have a spare Victory and have been debating what to do with it. Don't really need any more Spanish ships though.

The Business of the commander-in-chief is first to bring an enemy fleet to battle on the most advantageous terms to himself, (I mean that of laying his ships close on board the enemy, as expeditiously as possible); and secondly to continue them there until the business is decided.
Here is my work for today.
I managed to make a start on the third ship.
My Barque Lateen is on the stocks.

Today I guilded the transome and taff rails, painted the cannon and base coated the masts.
Tomorrow the sails.

Looking great Rob! You nailed the fine detail work.
Thanks Bryan.
Looking at the pictures blown up I can see a few places where the gilt work is a bit thin, and a couple of places where it touches the port lids, gut I can soon fix that. It is the one time when being extremely short sighted is an asset.
