    1/72 Flower Class 'Compass Rose'.

    I have a old Matchbox kit, made up with a lot if pieces missing and thought it would something different if I attempted my 'rusty-crusty'.

    Now this is a part built, ex RC build and is not easy to work on but I shall give it a go. Not sure if this will look better, being a larger size than the sunken subs I made...we shall see. I thought of doing the Compass Rose's final resting place, a bit beat up and ravaged. I love the book and the film 'The Cruel Sea.' and thought, there are a lot made as statics and RC versions but, not one of her final resting place.
