They're two seperate ships, and I think the Sackville is notable enough as the last surviving Flower class to be on it's own. I have borrowed a few parts from his Arvida though, so I'm going to credit him once it's on a template
His is also incorrect in a few notable ways, but that's beside the point.

No pass. Unless you managed to produce a flower drawing that suprass DP's orginal in all aspects, Im not going to upload any alternative version out of it to the mainsite. SB is about uniformity, and one key to that is to have only one base ship for classes of vessels.
Not all Flower Class were the same. The early type had a lower
forecastle, no radar, and no 20mm or 40mm AA. The later type
had a raised forecastle, the forward deck gun was on a raised
platform (the old mount was too wet for the North Atlantic),
radar, a larger AA suite, and longer hulls. They are even referred
to as "long hull" Flowers. There should be room for two different
types here.

Well question really is, can they be presented as modifications of the same drawing? if they can be, then the proper way to procede is to modify the orginal one. If not, then an altered drawing can become into guestion.
