(See example below)


anyway, thanks again for the kind words.

Have a good day,

To be honest greg, I am a great believer in making models for yourself and not for anyone else. If you want to paint it pink and are happy with it who is to say it hasn't achieved what it was made for and that is to give you pleasure.

If you hadn't have told me I would have never known and I still like the look of it. I think sometimes people get a bit too wrapped up in the striving at all costs for absolute technical accuracy and maybe sometimes they can loose sight of the fact that you are doing it for a bit of fun.

There are people of course who enjoy the research to the ultimate degree which is fine as long as they accept every one elses models for what they are.
