"A man has to know his limitations": Harry Callahan
One of my all time favorite movie lines ! ...and so true, too!
The cottage industry look pretty robust. I'm amazed at the amount of careful & meticulous research that goes into producing aircraft kits & accessories. It must be quite a challenge. I have a bit of leeway working with scale structures and at a smaller scale, though in model railroading (just as with any modeling venue) when you bump up to 1:48 scale or larger, that "leeway" starts to disappear...
I have to say, though, I am looking to give my eyes a bit of a break working at some larger scales....
