It is going to take a modeller (artist) of incredible skills to make a model a/c of this size look anything other than a toy.

Personally, to keep a model looking like a 'model' rather than a GI Joe accessory, 1/32 is about the maximum limit for scale fidelity (IMHO).

Then you might want to tell Airfix to stop making their 1/24 kits while you're on this.
