| Subject: | Re: Really? The amount of work is irrelevant |  |

Saul, I believe you misunderstand what I was trying to say. Not referring to the work used to fix the problem or the necessary measuring required to arrive at the correction, I am referring to the 'detecting' of the error in the first place that isnt noticeable to the nakid eye.
i.e. Looking at a Italeri Pz 38 and seeing no Drivers Hatch is noticeable to the nakid eye and would fall into my tweak category.
measuring the distance between two bolts and finding it a micron off is a nit-pick to me, as its not something my nakid eye would of noticed/been able to measure.
Seeing a missing spash guard around a vision port is a tweak.
Seeing 6 bolts where there should be 8 bolts on a wheel would be a tweak.
A hull thats a milimetter off is a nit-pick.
Counting the number of 'squares' in a mesh screen would probably be a nitpick unless it was so visibly off to be noticable.
In regards to the PV IV E items previous mentioned, some I would classify as tweaks and I would likely correct them, others are in the neighborhood of nit picks to me that I, myself wouldnt give any more thought about.
So far I have been extremely happy with my PV IV E. Heck I love a model that has 1 billion parts (the building is what I enjoy the most), and after 7 hours of time spent, I am still just finishing up Step 1 of it. The only area I have any dissatisfaction in is the instructions. There are several areas that could be improved upon. For example: Part D31 can easily be misaligned and not discovered until step 5. While I may have a ton of references others might not and could easily cause a major error and require some surgery to fix. Another example, I am unclear on is the difference between section 1C vs 1D (the rear idle wheel). If there is a reason to use one of them over the other, its not spelled out.
If I still havent made it clear and if your going to be at Devilcon tomorrow, I will chat with you there. |
