[WWI] Eduard's new Spad

[Douglas Anderson]

Diego is right. At some stage we will have to stop expecting too much from a manufacturer. They are there to make money and research delays production and is a cost. What next, expecting kity manufacturers to grow bonzai plantations for scale wood?

Depends from which Spad manufacturer is the marking...
Speaking of... are we getting a bit (meaning, a lot) anal regarding this?
After all, it's a superb kit of a well known WW1 fighter, down to the last
rivet.
Does it matter too much if the blue is two shades off... off something we
don't really know how it was; and the proportion of the central dot is
about
half millimeter larger than it should be?
It's fine to try to be as accurate as possible. But I think it's unfair
to
expect that accuracy comes right out of the box.
