G. Delacroix Posted February 17, 2015 Author #3 Posted February 17, 2015 Hello Anthony, It's possible that, in a few months, a translator performs an additional booklet in English. But today I can not confirm it. Regards, GD AntonyUK 1 Quote ___________________ Marine et modélisme d'arsenal Website
uss frolick Posted February 17, 2015 #4 Posted February 17, 2015 Mr. Delacroix, As usual, your monographs looks absolutely first rate! Since you are in the monograph business, might I be so bold as to make a recommendation for a future subject? The beautiful 24-pounder French frigate class deserves to be covered. These include La Forte/Egyptienne, La Vengeance/Resistance and the numerous frigates of the Immortalite Class, of which many plans and models survive. I predict that this would be a very popular subject, especially with members here. Quote
G. Delacroix Posted February 17, 2015 Author #5 Posted February 17, 2015 Thank you for the compliments. It is very curious what you say because, precisely, I am currently collects information about L'Egyptienne, 24 frigate. I need to find enough documents and in particular the wood quotations to make my choice.

druxey Posted February 17, 2015 #6 Posted February 17, 2015 Chère M. Delacroix, Congratulations on the publication of your new monograph. The harbour supply vessel is a lovely and unusual subject. As usual, your drawings are first rate. Hopefully an English language edition will follow for those unfamiliar with French. Avec meilleurs souhaits, Druxey Quote Be sure to sign up for an epic Nelson/Trafalgar project if you would like to see it made into a TV series http://trafalgar.tv
yamsterman Posted June 26, 2015 #7 Posted June 26, 2015 Hi Mr Delacroix Have just received my copy of le rochefort. Beautifully drawn plans and the monograph will be of great help especially with the 3d drawings. Goes a very long way in explaining the relationship between the various timbers. I look forward to making a start in the near future......just triton cross section and chucks cutter cheerful to do first! Merci !!!! Cheers....mick Canute 1 Quote
