Dear Mark, If you choose the "ship under Nelson's command" option, then you definitely and without the slightest doubt need to choose the strictly black and yellow option, as you showed in the picture.
In this case, you can already paint the central line in the middle (in the blue version - in no case!!!).
Don't forget, in this photo the white ropes in the deadeyes are a mistake, they should be black. The ship's copper sheathing was installed before 1783, which means it should have a wooden elm plank at the top.
Chris Wotton showed the stern decorations incorrectly.
I'm traveling now, if I have time, I'll definitely tell you how to do it correctly.
I think the lesson topic hi-hi-hi is closed (it's nice that Mark also came across information similar to mine!) But I'll say it again: the biggest stupidity that Malcolm Darch made was the old paint job, but for some reason with a new black stripe in the middle. Here he contradicts himself, because even if the ship had not been painted, then in principle this stripe could not have existed. But even so the ship would have perished, because this is enemy paint.
