    Default A small tribute to a great sailor.

    This diorama depicts the capture of the HMS Stanhope of 70 gun by a French frigate commanded by Don Blas de Lezo by 1710.
    The Basque sailor maintained a bombardment from a distance with a ship far superior and he made a maneuvre of approaching successfully and assault the english ship. After this action was promoted to captain of frigates.

    I hope you like it and have a nice week-end!

    Yet another piece of fine modelling and painting in such a small scale. What a fine diorama you have produced Julián.
    It is almost a pity that the models are not free to sail before the Trade winds in seek of the excitement to be found on the gaming seas of the World.
    Superb as usual.
    Rob.

    Julián, a beautiful diorama and a great tribute to Don Blas and the excellence of Basque seamanship and daring. I really like the action detail, the sails pierced by holes and the minute crew. Your work is the best!
