Review: Nice model for an iconic Space: 1999 ship - Although the Hawk only appeared in a single Space: 1999 episode, "War Games," it would have had more appearances had the show lasted beyond two seasons. It was intended to reproduce many of the basic design features of its more general-purpose cousin, the Eagle, but stripped down and intended solely as a warship. Anyway, on to the model: It's very well-produced, and the directions for assembly are clear. The pieces came off the sprues without much trouble or deformation. I would only suggest that take extra care when cutting because some of the pieces are very, very small and it would be easy to cut off a thruster nozzle or cut into one of the extremely delicate pipe assemblies accidentally. In my set, only a single piece, half of the rear main engine assembly, had any flash on it—and that came off easily enough with a soft file. Everything went together fairly smoothly. I'm about to start on the painting (having decided to paint post-assembly, since I'm using an airbrush for most of it), but painting before or after assembly is entirely up to you. It just seemed to me that with all the super-delicate pipe pieces and lattices, it would be better to paint after. That way also, by using dark primer, hopefully I can get a nice under-shadow effect in the crevasses. I'll admit, I'm a little daunted by the decal sheet because there are SO MANY of them, and a lot of them are very small. It's going to be a challenge for these semi-old and shakier-than-when-I-was-younger hands. One thing to mention is the kit offers full decals and painting guides for both the original all-white production prototype design, as well as the version shown in the episode where the Hawk had orange highlights. According to the lore, the director felt the Hawk looked too much like the Eagle, and so had the orange added at the last minute. Personally, I prefer the original colors, so that's what I'm going for. Anyway, it was a pleasure building this model and since it's my first in many years, I felt it was good practice before moving on to the much larger 1:48 scale Eagle transporter model which will be my next project.
Review: Good purchase. - Great model kit.
