This one is likely to be a quick little build. It's basically the companion piece to the Puss Moth, so I felt like I couldn't really build one without the other. Erik is right though, the kit is of an impressive vintage. It is indeed a few years older than I am, and has the flash to prove it. 🙂
Anyway, thanks for joining, there's plenty of seats available, so no shoving. 😉

You say that now... but wait till you see how much putty and sanding is required~

Well, it's supposed to be a Hawker Hart apparently... but the Hawker Demon is close enough... I mean, it's not like it's a Spitfire. 😉

Good enough for me - I'm arguably one of the least rivet-counting persons in here... just asking/checking... 😉

And only a masochist with ADHD would consider trying to convert it back to a Hart like the original 1957 tool... 🤪

What did you call me? 😉
I mean, besides the dip between the two cockpits... are there any other differences? They look quite similar to me...

Well, the "dip between the two cockpits" is the main difference I was referring to above... Plus, you'll have to skip the Demon's long exhausts, I guess...

Not exactly sure what picture to take to update my progress… I'm working on bits of everything all at once!

The main difference between a Demon and a Hart is the exhausts, the turret and the starboard machine gun. Will send a PM

IF however (regardless of how a real Hart should be) what is shown in the comic ("That's what I call" etc frame) is indeed a starboard mg (please correct me if I'm wrong...) then starting with a Demon kit was perhaps indeed a better idea than starting with a Hart kit.... IF this is the case... then you'll only have to deal with the rear seat/turret thing and the free (ala Fury) exhausts, no?

Yeah. I think so. Matthew provided some detailed comparison images but after looking at them and at the main page from the album... it seems to be a little bit of both...

A couple of updates. The supports next to the fuselage were so weak that 3/4 of them snapped even before I got them off the sprue. So instead I just used some bent wire. The holes they are meant to slot into were gaping caverns as well, so a fair amount of putty was needed to make it at least slightly better. Now I'm left with a decision to make. The Hawker Demon has two large exhaust tubes that run from the engine down the sides. They're not present in the Tintin album (which most closely resembles a Hawker Heart I believe). So... do I leave the two side holes and the large trenches on either side of the engine cowling, or do I just shrug my shoulders and use the parts that came in the box?
The Blue Rider decals went on easily enough. They're a bit shiny, but I think I can deal with that.

Thanks Matthew. I'm quite pleased with how the colouring came out too. A 2:1 ratio of Tamiya Buff (XF-57) and Khaki (XF-49) seems to have done the trick... or at least close enough for me.

I just noticed the artwork has actual rigging on it, so it looks like I'm not quite as done as I thought. Besides that, only a few nice white fluffy clouds needed for the base.

I didn't ask her, she spotted what I was doing and told me it needs to be pink! Can't disagree with that hahaha. She's quite handy with Alan the Airbrush already, I think I'll buy her some cheap 1:72 planes to have a go with on her own for starters.

If she's already handy with the airbrush - you're already halfway into reeling her into the craft! Good luck with that - and looking forward to the final result for this build!

Since Meng's instruction is much better than Takom's. I started my Meng Apache first and use the build experience for the Takom one later.

Great progress. Compared to TAKOM, MENG has included the right component. In your original picture you can't see any grille, just the radiator and the glass cover in front of it.

Thanks @JollyRogers64. Looks like it, although I'm not too sure if it's a glass or a very fine mesh.

Thanks a lot guys. Apologies for the blurry pictures as I took them with my mobile. I think I need to invest in a new camera 🙂
