hiya all
just had a flower class corvette bought for xmas, dont really want to build it as the snowberry, been looking on a website and found hms heather, are these two more or less the same??
just got back into modeling ships after a long lay off about 15 years, will this be a good project to break me back in??

Hi Rob

First of all Welcome to Modelshipwrights
I hope that you feel free to ask any questions/doubts and share your progress with us
As for your Snowberry and the Matchbox/Revell Flower Class corvete, before making any decisions I would advice you to see/check/acquire (choose as apropriate)
- HMS Campanula MOD Feature
built by Graham Townsend
- Flower-Class Corvete Agassiz (Anatomy of the Ship series)
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Flower-Class-Corvette-Agassiz-Anatomy/dp/0851779751
- Great Little Ships (for after market parts) http://home.clara.net/djparkins/gls/glsmast.htm

Hope this helps (although I have not answered your question)

There is a fairly decent website devoted to the Flower class corvette as well. Its http://www.cbrnp.com/RNP/Flower/ I hope maybe that will help you out a little bit as well.
