JSC No 16 / HMS Begonia / 1:400

Hi,

Here are a few pictures of the HMS Begonia, a Flower-class corvette (or coastal escort) launched in 1941.

This model is the "extra" item that comes with the No 16 JSC kit. It is one the older JSC kits, so no crisp computer design.

(And also no rigging, I avoid that if possible )

For those interested in fiction I can recommend the book "The Cruel Sea" by Nicholas Monsarrat. The "Compass Rose", a fictional Flower-class corvette is one of the main characters of the book.
