Hi Ken. Go to page 5 on the 'Others Ships' build diaries and look for k8 vnl's Snowberry diary. I've also got this one waiting, it was given to me as a part built, just the hull and deck made but all the parts are there  I might respray her first and start the painting from scratch though!  Its a great model though mine is the first Revell re-issue without any PE or wood decking  Best of luck with her Robin First wooden ship: The Grimsby 12 Gun 'Frigate' by Constructo Second: Bounty DelPrado Part Works Third: HMS Victory DelPrado Part Works 1/100 scale Diorama of the Battle of the Brandywine from the American Revolutionary War Diorama of the Battle of New Falkland (unfinished sci-fi), Great War Centenary Diorama of the Messines Ridge Assault Index for the Victory diary is on page 1

This is on my wish list as well. Have you seen the 'Cruel Sea' starring Jack Hawkins? Word from scuttle butt says the Royal Navy are planning to bring corvettes back, albeit a stealth version.

Ken Its a very nice kit with plenty of scope to detail to your hearts content. The following links may be of of interest knowing your a diorama fan. http://www.dynamicdioram...uelatsea/duelatsea.html
And the second for the company that can provide just about all the parts in etch and cast bits should you want to enhance some/all of your kit. http://www.djparkins.com...placement_Fittings.html
Hope you get a lot of fun from this one. Happy Modelling
