As IT engineer, i have to agree with you, but keep in mind that those frustration comes from marketing (to push you to buy new gadgets). They simply cut out the older communication protocols, however those would be much smaller than a new menu system. This is why the new car cannot communicate with old iPad. Eberhard, i came initially grom GCOS (Honeywell-Bull) world, then moved to VAX/VMS, now using Linux.

Bill, an alternative might be to display Victory slightly listed and some work performed under the waterline from a launch, maybe combination of lexan/epoxy resin. It wouldn't cause much confusion because you did not build Victory with full sail set. A few ropes from the deck to the launch could add to the realism, maybe you could fabricate a floating platform with handymen. In reality when they listed their ship they moved all the guns to one side, plus all the ballast too, let say they doing it hidden under the deck. Just an idea.

Congratulations Bill, it is magnificent! Anyhow, for the margin of 'dioramic liberty' i can imagine the depicted situation. Le Soleil Royal is about to depart from Brest, they set sails in time but there is not too much wind as seen here. The sails mostly hanging on the masts thus Admiral Tourville ordered the crew to last minute ship in some extra barrels of fine french wine, and some timber because the ship's carpenter discovered a few minor leak since the departure. Adm. Tourville is a noble man, therefore the port authority immediately sent out a few launch with the desired reinforcements. And voila. And pardon me to take the opportinity to tell this silly tale. Really a good diorama.

Unfortunately not. Maybe the author, Mike Maynard, who served on that ship? At least the readers cheered him because the model, but nowhere else mentioned who is the builder exactly.

Thank you Nils. Fortunately she is still afloat in Bedford, Massachusets, could be seen there. But check out this excellent model, this was the one which ignited my interest many years ago.

Bill, if you intend to display Victory and Soleil Royal together, i think then Vic must have a sea base too. For making a realistic sea base, you might want to check out Ebroin's Miniatures on youtube: this Korean modeler is a master of waves.

Never ever step under a swung load sailor! If you feel the figurines a bit too tall, you might scrape/file a very little from their shoes - i think their feet a bit thick due casting, so it wouldn't harm them

About the NRG
If you enjoy building ship models that are historically accurate as well as beautiful, then The Nautical Research Guild (NRG) is just right for you.
The Guild is a non-profit educational organization whose mission is to “Advance Ship Modeling Through Research”. We provide support to our members in their efforts to raise the quality of their model ships.
The Nautical Research Guild has published our world-renowned quarterly magazine, The Nautical Research Journal, since 1955. The pages of the Journal are full of articles by accomplished ship modelers who show you how they create those exquisite details on their models, and by maritime historians who show you the correct details to build. The Journal is available in both print and digital editions. Go to the NRG web site (www.thenrg.org) to download a complimentary digital copy of the Journal. The NRG also publishes plan sets, books and compilations of back issues of the Journal and the former Ships in Scale and Model Ship Builder magazines.
