Default RE: My pet peeve in scale

2 cent pitch.How about panel lines with a Sharpie. Classy. RIVETS. Most of the people who put them on have never seen an airplane before. Measure your rivet size in 1/6-1/5 size and scale up to 1 to 1. Probably be as big as a dish pan. If the airplane is flush riveted and painted, you don't even see the rivets. Why yes, I do it for a living. Stuffed animals or lack of a pilot. Worst offence is the 15 foot takeoff with a warbird. 2 local warbird flyin's I just cringe at seeing that. I don't think a lot of these guys fly to often to see the glaring error.Makes for a great circus show. Off my soapbox.
