What is rivet counting?

Colin feel free to say anything about my stuff, I have been shouted at by experts, and married twice

Same thing eh Steve? My "expert" prefers the "indirect approach." I really have to stop referring to her as "Der Fuehrer" in public....gender's wrong

Here's a challenge for those who hate "button counters " as rivet counters are sometimes known as in the figure modelling world.
Which picture of a double bust project do you reckon truly captures the likeness of a Cockney Pearly King and 'is lovely baked bean.

The first one, without advice from your friendly button counting friend who gives helpful advice with a smile and a cheery disposition~



Or the second one with advice from your friendly button counting friend who gives helpful advice with a smile and a cheery disposition~




I know which one I'd go for folks...........thank you so much button counter, my Pearly King and Queen look great thanks to you.
Just remember folks button counters are out there day and night tirelessly working behind the scenes for you and me to ensure no figure is left poorer for the lack of good advice given with a smile.......cheers.

Not too much philosophy there......Or have I rivet counted this thread much too long?

Wayne, we are genuinely sorry that this thread is failing to escalate into conflict and as a consequence you are struggling to connect with it. Never mind, there will be opportunities in future.
