    Varnished wood with Prussian Blue upper and lower "edging" strakes seems to be a common pattern for the 1750s-60s Brits. Period models of Bellona and Canada five years apart show the same basic scheme as your Victory.

    Jonas, would side-nipping sprue cutters like used in traditional modeling work?

    Another fine ship ready for battle Julián.

    Would you like the attatchments removing?

    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.
