All at Sea - Spanish First Rates for Cape St Vincent

[carojon]

This week I finished off the additional Spanish ships needed to facilitate a refight of Cape St Vincent in time for the 225th anniversary of the battle next year.



This project required an additional seven Spanish 3rd rates and three more first rates to be added to those built for the Trafalgar project and I also needed to have these models in a more suitable Revolutionary War paint scheme.

Nice.  What scale and what manufacturer?

Very well executed.

Hi aphillathehun,
Thank you.

The scale is 1:700 and these and all my models illustrated in the All at Sea series of posts are from the Warlord Black Seas range.

I read 1/700 in a couple of your posts but was unaware that Warlord had a whole range of 1/700 Age of Sail.  Nice.

The sadly now deceased parents of my best friend at Uni used to own and run the St Vincent Arms in Sutton-upon-Derwent, Yorkshire, until 1991.  They had one or two mementoes of Jervis in the pub, but I'm not sure what happened to these when they left.
