  1. I agree that historical accuracy isn't a thing that makes or breaks a movie for me, though as a director, I would avoid some hair-rising ideas (like shooting the Pyramids), if I weren't entirely in the fantasy realm like Guy Ritchie's King Arthur.

    The Woman King to me was another example of a film with a great trailer that fell completely flat as a movie experience, excluding the history debate.

  2. I started the hobby with hand brushing Humbrol enamels and it was fine, but they must have changed the formula at some point (I should probably thank them from a health perspective) and now are as gooey as the Revell paints.

    Once I switched to airbrush, I stuck with Tamiya acrylics. I can mix almost any shade I desire, the smell doesn't kill me, and yes, the surface is sensitive compared to laquer, but once you got all the antennas and ordnance on a kit, you have to hadle it like a live grenade anyway.

    For high-gloss surfaces, polyurethane seems all the rage, but I haven't tested it.
