Airfix tank kits

You would. Other people who see it when you post it online would, too.


A and C (and therefore D) are non-arguments: I build for my enjoyment too, and part of that enjoyment for me is trying to make an accurate replica of the real thing. If that's not your goal, fine, it's your model, so you should build it the way you want to — but it's better to not presume other people build models with the same goals in mind as you have. Some/many do want to know that a kit isn't particularly accurate even if they "only" build them for themselves.

For that matter, B is a non-argument as well: if you're not building for anybody's enjoyment but your own, it doesn't matter who you know that might comment on accuracy.

Ok. Settle petal.

I got a look at these kits yesterday at a club meeting, and they're nice kits. Would the AMPS/Hyperscale crowd wrinkle their noses at them? Sure, but they hate everything. I think most modelers could build these kits and enjoy them.
The 1/35 ambulance is apparently an original Airfix tooling, by the way, not ex-Academy.
