Thanks Bas - they're fun things to build as you don't have to be super accurate (they can sometimes change from panel to panel in the books) and some of them you see so little of that you can be as creative as you want!

Watching, not a big Tintin fan, but I have the very same kit in my stash and wonder how bad it could be 😄
Very useful vacu canopy hints, thx

Thanks Matthew. Lukasz - its a short-run kit, but certainly not the best version of those. I had to sand down the inside of trailing edges of the wings before gluing the halves together to make them look decent. I also had to go around every injection moulded piece looking for extra areas of plastic that needed to be trimmed off (the two windows at the rear of the fuselage were bad - one was completely closed over and had to be drilled out and then filed to shape.) and lots of flash as well, especially on the cockpit interior parts. However the detail is quite good and I'm hoping it will turn out OK.

Album info

While Tintin and crew are at the Syldavian moon launch facility it is overflown by an unknown plane (presumably Bordurian) that looks a lot like a Westaland Lysander. I've chosen to build the Pavla Lysander Mk.II kit, largely out of the box, except for a replacement Lewis gun from the spares box (as the kit item is pretty crude) and a Yahu instrument panel. The plane is only shown in silhouette in the book so I'll paint it black as a night infiltration/spy plane with home-made Bordurian markings
