| Subject: | Re: What i mostly don`t like on plastic kits | |

Because my words sounds maybe a little hard.
I understand the manufactor reasons to made the kit easy to build for everyone. But, for example on a modern tamiya kit, the kits are leaving the beginner class in the last years. To me with all the very good details on the new kits, it looks like models for professionels modellers. I mean nearly everything is in the right shape and on the right place. Looks like it is made on the borders of what you can do with plastic.
What means that ?
It means that a lot customers around the world are allways had asked for more quality in the last years. I am happy about it and that is wat making a lot of fun when building.
For beginners or kids it is maybe better to learn from the beginning on what really go on with tools or other parts on a tank(how the part fixed in real, in wich position and why)
instead of making kits"idioticsure",for glue it quick together and some weeks later be unhappy with the model(45 Euro mistake).
Maybe i see that a little bit "straight" it is because i dream of a pure kit where are no details on the hull or turret and i can fix details bit by bit by my self.
But anyway, it isn`t a big problem
