OT but relevant.
In my other life as a retailer of exotic and expensive model cars I get a goodly number of people wanting to buy the very exotic and very complex ones.
Call me stupid (not all at once thank you) but I always ask what sort of experience they have had, and generally it is with plastics from the large Japanese 'shake 'n bake' brand, as in open box, throw in paint and glue, shake box and voilà! Instant model!
All they really learn is model 'assembly' not 'model building' ..... well, I think that is exactly the point re Bryce.
Easy to knock something that looks "OK" to the average person but no soul.

On the other hand, good Bryce art is very good, Mobious Co(?) and I recall a couple by Dangeruss (I think) that I still have and use from time to time, great work.
But 'pure' Bryce is not great, it's just formula assembly.
Well .... I know what I mean.
CRAFT strikes again!
