Sorry about the slow rate of updates everyone. I hurt my back at the gym so I'm having to avoid being hunched over at the modeling bench this week.

OK! Back at it with the interior. This kit is definitely a jump in difficulty from the last one. PE is definitely difficult, and if you're doing this kit, make sure you frequently fit check the flight seats and how they'll mount to the bulkheads!

the detailing on this kit is really lovely, but the fitting of the parts is really bad. And advice on fixing the massive panel gaps in pic 43 to 47 is appreciated.

Is the top portion already glued on? If not, try adding some bracing with some cut sprues to force the sides apart. Right about where the kink/end of the doghouse is.
Is the aft bulkhead of the crew cabin causing the problem? If that is glued to both sides, forcing the sides apart may not work.

Very good advice. Had to pry it apart but addint braces definitely helped!

If still relevant.
Pic 43-45. Before gluing the fuselage roof to the lower part, I glued 2 spacers from sprue scraps between the walls.
Pic 46 and 47.
I simply cut off the inner side of the hood wall, leaving the outer side untouched, achieving a tight fit along the outer surface. And I puttyed a little bit on the front of the hood.

First print mostly successful. I will need to rework the thickness of the walls and the support struts for the roof. Much too thin.

3d printing, I wouldn't know where to start. Is the ami 6 a file you found online?

I did find it online, but was a little disappointed with the quality. It required a lot (and will need more) work to be able to print it. I mainly have to increase the thickness of the rear trunk area. The strange overhang roof in the rear needs to be sturdier as well.

The second printing went much better. I made a mistake though, I forgot to add the support to both sides of the rear roof struts. Luckily one side seems to be strong enough to hold everything, and with a little paint I don't think the thin part will be visible.

Good timing. After a bit of a summer break spent watching football, olympics, and playing video games with my son... I just started back at the modelling desk. After clearing up a couple of other, smaller, Tintin-related projects, I'm almost ready to tackle this one again.

With the Hawker Hart off the bench and on the shelf… I guess it's time to tackle this one again. Getting the colour right was tricky. I finally settled on a 10:5:1 ratio of Tamiya XF-2 White, X-14 Sky Blue and XF-18 Medium Blue. Not perfect, but close enough I think.

Thanks Cuajete. It might be a LITTLE bit darker than I was going for, but close enough for me. It looked lighter in the airbrush cup, but I suspect the darker undercoat is at play here.

Got the windows in place. I used an old iPhone screen protector plastic cut to fit. For the interior windows I glued it them in place with some very small dabs of CA glue and then a brush of Future. However, for the open doors, I used the thinner "peel off plastic" that's supposed to keep the iPhone protector nice and clear until it's applied. Then I dipped them in Future and applied them directly to the doors. Let's hope there's enough adhesion once the Future dries. It SHOULD work, since I did the same thing on my Tintin Model T project for the windscreen. But that was flat… these have a bit of a curve to them.

Looks like the windows are holding. Next up… painting some of the details.

I just realized that I've been looking at the colour scheme from the album - specifically the scene that takes place at night where Professor Calculus is taken down the stairs and dump unceremoniously into the front seat of the Citron Ami 6 by a rogue wheelchair, blasting the doctor out the passenger door in the process. However... since it takes place at night, the colouring is different (i.e. darker) than it should be in the light of day. Now I feel like I screwed up the paint job!

Basically done. Just a couple of tiny bits to add.. like the license plate!

I took a page out of my Spitfire build. Not quite the huge cloud of leaflets needed this time, but basically the same technique to show the poor airborne doctor losing all his documents!

This scene is making me smile lots! Really nicely depicted, and the scattered papers are working brilliantly too! Liking the juxtaposition of the bottle's label.... 😉

Thanks guys! The feedback is much appreciated, and Bruce's comment about the bottle label made me laugh! This completes Project Number 49 of my Tintin series... I'm debating about what to do for the big 5-0. I have two main ideas in mind... one is probably a bit more iconic to the Tintin series, but the other one is going to be levelling up on the electronics side of things.. that is if I can get it working. So far my efforts have resulted in effectively nothing at all.
