So I think it's pretty well understood that the term "studio scale" basically means "a model built to the size of a miniature built for a film or other production". Which is admittedly kind of confusing - I really think it should be "studio size" to avoid confusion.
But anyway. I was thinking about this definition, and was wondering whether the definition also always means, in peoples' minds, "and is intended to look as close as possible to that miniature".
So, for example, let's say you make a replica of a screen-used model that's pretty well identical in terms of physical size, in terms of detailing and proportion and exact greeblies used, and so on. But you decide to add a cockpit interior where the original model did not. Are people going to have conniptions over this?
