rigging of the Santìsima Trinidad

[Kevin]

yep its me, asking silly questions again

 

having just finished the Vanguard Models HMS Indefatigable, i have moved on to the Santìsima Trinidad, and it seams to me that she is certainly lacking in the amount of rigging,

if i was to rig her with info from my Caldercraft HMS Victory would i be that far out, or is there a decent POR i can turn to, were allied 3/4 deckers more or less the same

Oh, and then there's this a kind of very abbreviated variant of the latter work mentioned above in the form of an article in one of the periodicals.
