	Flower Class Corvette in RN/RCN Service
		HMS Abelia is fitted for minesweeping (as were most early RCN corvettes), and is also fitted with one of the first type 271 radars.
		I have recently found out that her commanding officer in 1943/44 (Lt Stuart, RCNVR) was a good friend of a friend of mine, so I would really love to find a view of Abelia in that period to do an illustration.
		Bluebell is also carrying two twin Lewis guns on the aft engine room casing.

		It is important to gauge and to ascertain the type of foc’sle for each corvette you wished to model.
		I decided that the ones for which I had good photographic references were HMCS Snowberry, HMS Loosestrife, and HMS Alisma.
		Unless you're planning to put your finished corvette on a smooth surface or seascape it will be necessary to build the full hull model especially if you are to site your corvette in any sea which has a modicum of waves.
