1/144 HMCS Snowberry, the Battle of the Atlantic
Buzzer beater for 2020 - finished on New Years Eve.
Great kit (Revell 051322) with very nice details out of the box. I added Shapeways figures.

Great looking corvette Richard! The camo and weathering are sublime, and the shipmates on the deck add the perfect picture of commotion and life... well done!

I was thinking about adding those Shapeways figures to whenever I got around to building my copy. It looks like I will order some as they make the Snowberry feel real and capture how small the real life ship actually is in comparison to even a Destroyer.
Nice last 2020 build!

The shapeways figures are amazing. A more capable figure painter would likely get very good results.

Excellent job allover, Richard!
And yes, the figures breathe even more life to this amazing model.
Well done!
Happy 2021!

I'm not into ships but I do like these Flower Class Corvettes and this one looks great, the figures definitely go a long way to adding to the realism. Definitely liked.

Thanks - this is my 4th ship. The kit is well engineered and detailed so I think it would be a good kit for anyone wanting to try a ship.

Lovely model. I need to add a ship to my repertoire...and a car...and a tank...and sci-fi...
Richard Bungay said on January 2, 2021
This would be a good kit to try ship building. Detailed but straightforward.

Nice work, Richard! The figures really add a lot.
Richard Bungay said on January 2, 2021
I was really happy how the sailors turned out - all they needed was a wash and some dry brushing to bring out the detail.

Nice work! Really love the figures. That’s a small ship for a big ocean!

Very very nice Richard. The battle of the Atlantic is my main collection subject.
I have the 1/72 version to build in my stash. Large Box !
