Revell AG Germany 1/72 H.M.C.S. Snowberry Flower Class Corvette - 05061
(http://www.ehobbies.com/mo-rvl-05061.html)
Does anyone have any experience with this company and/or the model set? Is it worth the 100$?
I haven't had one of these model sets in years, and I'm not very good at gluing the stuff together... but I'm currently taking art-classes, and hope to muster the 100$ that this one costs.
It's a 50-50 chance right now that I'll buy it before winter. If nothing else, then just for a school-time project.
:hmm: |

This is my 1/72 Flower class model. I go by the name of Paul K there.

The kit was produced by a British company called Matchbox, and I believe they sold the moulds to Revell. However, looking at the links elswhere in this thread, the Revell hull is in two halves, whereas in the Matchbox kit the hull comes in four pieces. So, it might not be the same model. [/url] |

Wow, that's a really great detailed model.
have you made any custom parts for?
i can't beliefe that a 1 dollar (new and sealed) model from ebay can look so great. |
