New 1/700 3-D prints from Turner Miniatures have been added to my collection, and in my recent post I showcase the French 40-gun frigate Coquille and her four sister ships of the Coquille-class.

In addition, I take a look at the history behind the other model featured, the rather unique, HMS Glatton 56-guns, and her famous action off the Dutch coast in 1796, single-handed against a French squadron, likely consisting of a French razee, five frigates/corvettes and a brig, under her daring commander, Captain Sir Henry Trollope.
