new 1:48 planset
24-prd French frigate "L'Egyptienne" built in Toulon in 1799 by François Caro
Gerard agreed to use his text and photos, so please look at this Beauty:
I am pleased to announce you the beginning of the subscription for a new monograph.
It's a book about the rare 24-prd French frigates of the eighteenth century. The ship chosen is "L'Egyptienne" built in Toulon in 1799 by François Caro. The national collections retain two models of this frigate that have been of great help in the development of this monograph. As usual, all the framing, fittings and equipment are represented as well as the masts, sails and details of the rigging.
The booklet has 216 pages with many drawings in 3D and about sixty photos of the museum models. The plans folder contains 39 particularly detailed 1/48 plates.
The page of this monograph is here: L'Égyptienne
I personally got the information by Gerard, that in the beginning the french version of the booklet will be released. He is planning to make an english and maybe spanish version.
When these translations are available, everybody who bought the french original can get, on request, the translation as a pdf. In my opinion a very good service!

Sommaire de l'ouvrage :
