Mirage Hobby 1/350 Flower Class corvette "Zinnia"

[Dimiter]

This is one of my older models - HMS "Zinnia" build with the help of the WEM photo-etched set.

The model took silver medal from the European Championship Class "C" in 2014

Very nicely done.

A beautiful job on that, I can see how it deserved it's silver medal.

Gidday Dimiter, you've done a very neat build here. Does this depict the ship later in the war? I noticed it has an enclosed bridge, whereas most other models and images I can recall have an open bridge. I'd like to build one of these ships one day but will probably have to scratch-build it, as I would want it in 1/600. Models like yours would be a gold mine of info for me, if you don't mind. And again, well done. Regards, Jeff.

Thank you!

I really don't know about the bridge. She was sunked so early in the war that I was not able to find any survived photos (still, there should be). I was relying manly on other people's builds, where no one expressed any concerns on the matter.
