Hi all

Please take a look at the 7th and 8th photos down in this set of HMS Clarkia images from the Flower Class Corvette Forums http://theflowerclasscorvetteforums.yuku.com/topic/1505?page=1 There appears to be a very unofficial camouflage design being used that looks unique to me amongst the Flower Class. You can see the rounded shapes applied to the air intakes, bandstand and funnel. These do not appear on the first image in the set which also shows a 1941 bow wave design. Have any of the camo specialists on here seen anything like this before and do you have an approximate date when this design may have been used ?

Thanks

Mark Walters
