Work has progressed to add a further twelve models to the Spanish collection created for Trafalgar to allow the mighty Spanish fleet that sailed off Cape St Vincent on St Valentine's Day in 1797.



This first group of four, a first rate and three 74-gun third rates include a more Revolutionary War look to my Spanish for that and some of the other earlier engagements.

Lovely work.

I've been to Cabo Sao Vicente, 200-foot sheer cliffs down to the ocean, quite a scenic place.

And the glorious general led the advance
With a glorious swish of his sword and his lance
And a glorious clank of his tin-plated pants. - Dr. Seuss

Thank you.

What a glorious memory as I went to Cabo Sao Vicente way-way back in 1985, before we were married, as my wife has just reminded me.

It was '99 for me, when I was courting my wife-to-be.

First rate job once more! They look so wonderful! Congrats!
