    I can't disagree with you there, but that wasn't really the intended angle of my post. It was more along the lines of searching for perfect references can impact actually making models!

    Very nice indeed!

    It is coming along nicely!

    That is a very good suggestion.

    The 3 Stratos cars look great. I wonder if they are real or replicas? It is very difficult to tell unless you see the interior or under the clam shells.

    Looking forwards to seeing this.

    Thanks everyone! I guess this all comes down to the fact that we can't win every battle, so we should chose the ones we want to win! I think to a certain degree that the smaller scales can get away with suggestions of detail and as they get bigger the requirement for detail grows or you risk a more toy like appearance. Lots of plastic car kits are 1/24 and bigger and detail starts to become more and more apparent. Move up to 1/12 and 1/8 and it really does need to be good, both in terms of finish and scale fidelity. One thing for sure is the need to enjoy the research and the model making, so I may take the approach of some simple builds in a variety of subjects/scales and then just a couple of really detailed models of the one or two I really want to go to town on. I have just brought an Airfix Shannon Lifeboat as I have a personal connection to one, so I intend to just build it as best I can in this year!
