To count the rivets, or not count the rivets.
Some people consider rivet counters to be a little, shall we say

. The rivet counters themselves consider anything less to be historicly inacurate. I was just wondering if anyone here crosses the line every now and then or are you just of one particular camp? I personally have done three ship where I counted every single rivet, joint, and weld to produce the most historicly accurate model I could possibly build, USS Arizona, RMS Titanic, and USS Fletcher. Some times though I like to just build something straight OTB, no reference material, no photos, nothing. Just a nice relaxing build to unwind with. Some of my aircraft might be a little long, short, have an antenna where there shouldn't be, I don't care. It looks nice and was fun to build. On the other hand I am working a B-24 that my grandfather flew and you can bet that baby will be counted down to the vary last rivet. So, are you a rivet counter, not a rivet counter, or are you bi-riveted?
