This is the last of the ships for the battle of Pacocha, the Royal Navy corvette HMS Amethyst, using the more recent Tumbling Dice ASV11 Screw Sloop model as a basis for adaptation. I cut away the sails from the bowsprit, foremast and mizzenmast, then replaced them with masts and spars from cut down staples. This was easier than I thought it would be but there was quite a lot of trimming, filing and sanding involved. It's not a perfect match for HMS Amethyst but it's not bad, especially as there's nothing else that would do the job.
