Artesania Latina Anatomy of Lord Nelson’s HMS Victory Trafalgar 1805

Thanks for the heads up Allan, appreciate the information. To be honest it will be my first attempt at doing copper plates so I want to keep it as simple as possible, so I intend just to butt them up. The plates do not come with the Kit, they are the Caldercraft plates used on their 1/72 Victory. So they will be slightly oversize on my 1/84 model. They were easy for me to source here in Australia and a good price too. Plus being slightly bigger I need less. The detail appear to be just raised dimples. If I succeed in getting the plates down as well as AlanOES then I will be a happy man.

Nice tidy work as usual Tony
Just one thought, I hope the extra height you’ve add around the cables doesn’t effect the way the ship sits on the display base, where I assume the cables will have to pass through to reach the switch bank

I've checked the base it should be OK, but thanks for the heads up.

As I was writing it I thought, I bet he’s checked it I know you’re usually on the ball with things
