Don;
You could be right .I just always wondered .Remember in some kits the Wing to Fuselage joining at the Wing to Fillet joint were sometimes very weak . I had always wondered why they didn't do what I suggested ,Thus making the base joint possibly stronger . You know , Larger Footprint .
Tanker - Builder I for one , have always wondered why they separate wings at the outside of the fillet instead of at the fuselage ?
I for one , have always wondered why they separate wings at the outside of the fillet instead of at the fuselage ?
In my opinion, it is a lot easier to fill the gap at the outside (wing/fillet) than on the the fuselage to fillet line.

ALAS !
I have wondered about that . I have seen many grown folks stumble on a snap kit build and many younger modelers sail right through the Lord Nelson in 1/700 . I think it's a suggested thing based on ones ability and hand eye co-ordination .
I for one have never found any kit beyond me . Some took longer because of my learning ability with the way some older kits went together . Remember Revell's Multi - Piece cars for example .
It took some years and re-builds ( With new kits ) as I got around their exceptionally bad fit and weird join areas . Who'd think they would have the body go together on prominent trim lines that would ruin the overall look if not done just so ?
Hi,
I think at least for Revell the total number of parts plays a big role in skill level.

Those level indicators don’t mean a lot.
Cant speak to the Titanic, but the corvette model is difficult.
Not bad difficult, however it has a lot of parts and the construction is time consuming.
Modeling is an excuse to buy books.
I have a 1/350 titanic skill level 3 to me is a pretty complex model.I was online just wishing and was looking at a 1/144 hmcs revell snowberry skill level of 5 it' smaller than titantic don' look as complex why the skill level higher what am I missing.
