Re: AC 1/400 A320citylink, A330corsair, A330cathay not satisfied with QC and review

I'm not sure if whomever took the Corsair photo spent anytime matching color of subject to the photo itself but it is possible that when 15 models arrive and photos need to be taken that there may...

Re: AC 1/400 A320citylink, A330corsair, A330cathay not satisfied with QC and review

You are cherry picking your example. You did not mention my post where I compared my photo of the Corsair with a photo of a real Corsair. I declared they appear the same to me. Two differences of...

I don't know. The model could get sucked up into the engine or worse it could be run over by one of the landing gears or worse yet...stomped on by an angry flight attendant.

Re: AC 1/400 A320citylink, A330corsair, A330cathay not satisfied with QC and review

I may have mentioned earlier or elsewhere that with regard to the Corsair AC photo someone may have been guilty of sloppy photography, over exposure if you will. I agree with Jeff that the blue on...

You are not surprised that you were proven wrong? I don't know what that means.

Please stand, I will then correct you because you are indeed wrong. The three main types of colorblindness: Deuteran (green), Protan (red) and Tritan (blue). Like I said above somewhere, I have the...

It could be that whomever is responsible for color at AC has a color blindness toward the blue shades.

Where did you get this idea? I don't believe that GJ posts photos of pre-production anything. There would not be enough time between the photo being posted, to wait for someone to respond to it, to...

Re: AC 1/400 A320citylink, A330corsair, A330cathay not satisfied with QC and review

No need to take anything anywhere. Comparing my photo to the photo is good enough for me. They appear one and the same to my eyes.

Re: AC 1/400 A320citylink, A330corsair, A330cathay not satisfied with QC and review

You are trying to compare your photo of the real plane to a photo of the model. Photograph the model using the same camera and then compare the two. That's the only way that you can do it using an...

I have all four of the recent China A330s. The basic livery without the different art versions is one of my favorite current liveries. Aeroflot being another. I think that you will enjoy this latest...

Re: AC 1/400 A320citylink, A330corsair, A330cathay not satisfied with QC and review

And yet you continue to compare an over exposed photo to the real plane. I will say again, I have this model and to my eyes the blue is darker than shown in the photo. And I will say again, because...

Re: AC 1/400 A320citylink, A330corsair, A330cathay not satisfied with QC and review

I think so. At best a photo of the model is being compared to a photo of the real plane. How can that work out? Both photos could be afflicted by natural or artificial lighting or camera color...

Why would you bring up Witty, if not to further murk the waters? To drag the thread off topic? You're trolling I think. You've offered nothing positive to the thread. May as well butt out.

Re: AC 1/400 A320citylink, A330corsair, A330cathay not satisfied with QC and review

It is true. All brands have their own idea of color. I suspect that we all see the same color differently, depending our own individual degrees of color blindness. Is not a factory fresh green or...

Another term for "nit-pickier" is "complainant". Maybe "complainant" is a better choice? You, sometime in your life, have been a complainant. Almost everyone has I would suspect. I have complained...

Re: AC 1/400 A320citylink, A330corsair, A330cathay not satisfied with QC and review

Factory fresh, sun faded, soot and grime, various degrees of color blindness, and photo finishing and lighting all play into this. No way to match all of that.
