Very nice. Love the rust streaks. She was a very compact ship looks good.

Hi Andrew

You have made a nice debut in MSW with your small corvette!
A clean built from what I can see, and nice display too.
As I said before on other post, I would like to see more of it
Can you add some more photos (details) so the community can enjoy more of your HMS Dianthus, please?
Thanks and Welcome to MSW

Hi Andrew,

Excellent build, I really like the smaller naval ships and I think you've done a 1st class job on this one.

Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for the comments everyone - I will take some more shots when I get a chance, though its tucked away in the cabinet at the moment so it may be a while.

Andrew

Very, very nice job of a very classy little ship. I must have missed it but... What scale is it?

Very nice build Andrew. Super job.

Gator

thanks again guys.

Murdo - its 1/350 so scales out at around 7 inches bow to stern.

I don't really know why but when i see a model of those corvettes i am reminded of the plastic boats you give to kids for their baths -that must be rather round shape of their hulls.
Anyway, i really love this model, great colours, great details, great everything and another fine addition to this site's ship model arsenal.
1/350? ah ah, I didn't read closely at first when I saw it and I thought it was the old Revell (?) 1/72 model, so yeah, that's another compliment too
