Not sure what's going on on that web-site (can't read the language) but there are quite a few pretty well executed profile drawings. Mostly American and Spanish (naturally) pre-1900 warships. I have no idea how accurate they are though.

They do look pretty good, also, chinese pop-up adds are even more annoying than western ones!

They're accurate enough! I've got Friedman's cruiser and battleship books, and they're confirming to these drawings. I also have got very detailed plans of the Texas, New York and Brooklyn, all looking good to me. I, too, have in my possession a very fine Spanish book on the Numancia, and her later appearance (she was an iron clad frigate, built in 1867), is confirmed also. Details may vary; this where the usage of period photos come into play.
