A friend of mine who usually builds 1/72 scale aircraft is interested in a building a 1/700 model of a pre-dreadnought battleship. He didn't state any particular ship or even navy. I suggested the French pre-dreadnoughts were the most interesting-looking, but left it at that.

I'm sure people here have some suggestions on good models of pre-dreadnoughts, any navy. He builds injection plastic models of aircraft but there won't be many of those for 1/700 pre-dreadnoughts(!) so suggestions for models in resin or 3D printing are welcome too.

Maybe there's a consensus on "the best" 1/700 model of a pre-dreadnought battleship?
