Flower Class Corvette refited - Pom Pom tub, Baley rafts, vents and lifeboats

Here it is! My Corvette got the much needed refit. It now matches the 1942 period better.

 

What has been fixed, you're wondering? Several things:

-The camouflage now resembles the Western Approaches Pattern applied on escort vessels in service in the North Atlantic in 1942

- The armament has been updated with the addition of the Hedgehog rocket launcher, rebuilt depth charges racks and added side depth charges dischargers, addition of a Pom Pom 2pdr. in the Tub, 20mm Oerlikons both sides of the bridge

- Added details on the rear deck (door, access ladder, hatch, vents and winch), on the bridge ( rebuilt ASDIC hut and added voice pipes) and others

- Rebuilt aft section with a better curvature and more realistic depth charge racks

- Added Life boats and Baley rafts

 

And I'll let you find out the rest ;)

 

Sorry for this massive description, and I hope you like and leave a comment. :D
