Quote - And then you go on to describe what would be the most hated people in model railroading, the "rivet counters".  Find one little detail that isn't letter perfect and scream bloody murder the hated cry of the rivet counter, "THAT AIN'T PROTOTYPICAL!"

Being a freelancer who at least tried to find a prototype, I had a lot of scale rails tied up in knots.  They'd say "Ain't no such critter!" and I'd haul out a photo of just such a critter, usually a shop-made piece specially made for a single purpose.  They didn't like that very much but that was their kuleana not mine.

It's the same thing here.  Show me a human model and sure as shooting, somewhere out in that 6 billion (7 billion) people on this planet, there is a prototype.
