There are always different ways to look at the same thing. Accuracy is important but people forget that they are only REPLICATING something, not cloning it.

What bothers me about color accuracy (harder than physical details to replicate) is that the more official color chips, painting guidelines, etc., that modellers discover and follow, the more removed from reality their models tend to become. This is not always the case, but happens alot nowdays. Like not seeing the forrest because of the trees.
