The Sunshine State | | | | Re: How critical should our model criticisms be? | I do agree; making valid points about possible errors in a diecast is very important, but I want to add 2 things to this. First, people should use better tact when criticism is due. For example, say "The horizontal stabilizer is too long and needs to be a little shorter", rather than "Why these people couldn't figure out the tail assembly is beyond me. What a bunch of morons". Secondly, if there is an inaccuracy in a diecast, then reveal the source that can verify this mistake. What source allows you to make this statement? Obviously, one can make an obvious axiomatic statement if there is a lack of weathering (usually with armor) or a quality control issue. One doesn't need to 'sugar coat' a negative aspect of a diecast, but, on the other hand, one doesn't need to degrade or belittle a diecast company either. | I just don't remember seeing anyone here give a review in poor taste. Can somebody post a link as an example? All this may just be a non-issue! |
