36 Gun Frigates

 



Here's the last addition to the Inshore squadron, three 36 gun Fifth Rate frigates - HMS Inconstant, HMS Phoenix and HMS Dryad. These are the ASN10 38/40 gun frigate model, which I've fiddled about with to give two of them full sail sets including top gallants, rather than all plain sail. This adds a bit of variety and also reflects the many long stern chase pursuits that were made by these ships when intercepting French frigates during the Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars. I've also completed a single 80 gun Third Rate - HMS Foudroyant - to add to the line of battle.
