In between all the painting and sorting out I came across a box containing my Langton Napoleonic ships bought some years ago.
I did complete four of these with all the rigging etc but it was quicker to paint a unt of 28mm figures than do one ship.
I then came across Model J ships - http://modeljship.com/en/
Julian the proprietor is a master at his craft - he paints, rigs and bases the ships ( only Langton) so after much thought I sent him 3 British ships from my original Algeciras project.
They arrived today :)
I am over the moon with these. Check out his web site - he has started doing resin forts as well, now I know he's not cheap but you get value for money and one ship is still cheaper than a unit of 28mm.
Beautiful stuff - some Spanish will be going off for the treatment! shortly.

excellent.
As you know Graham I am quite a fan of this project of yours. This is looking exceedingly like a must follow project for the new year. Very keen to see how you approach rules selection etc. I have a few Langtons myself busting to get out of their boxes.
Some of the best I have ever seen. Stunning!
Absolutely lovely, Graham. "Hearts of Oak..." and all that!
Pip, pip...

These are very very good Graham. Are you bringing out marines to go with the ships.
Carlo,
I guess the good thing with the ships is that the rules can come later , bases etc don't really matter. Get those ships out of the boxes
:)
Robbie.
Marines will be coming for my WAS and hopefully some naval landing party.
Graham
Absolutely
John,
Thanks. I'm glad I found Julian's link it means I will get my small fleets finished!
Those are excellent.
Very beautiful Graham, good enough for a museum, though much more fun to actually play with them. look forward to hearing more.
