Your modelling work is splendid, as usual. I always enjoy your posts and don't always take the time to thank you for them.
I have always thought the Principe de Asturias was the most successful of the Spanish 112-gun three deckers.
I enjoyed your history of the ship. She was nearly in action with Nelson in December 1796 when she was one of the ships that set out from Cartagena to drive off Nelson in the Minerve, who was making a typical nuisance of himself by attacking the Spanish frigates Santa Sabina and Ceres off the city.
I think you must be slightly mad building every ship at Trafalgar in 1/700, but I am admiring and enjoying your posts about your progress.
