Their scratchbuilt model is fairly accurate. The detail is superb, but there are some inaccuracies, esp. in the 1/192. the 1/48 is fairly decent.
There is no builders model of Titanic that we know of. The Olympic model cannot be used in all ways to creat a definitive Titanic model. Mike Pell has constructed one heck of a good model, as well as others on the main page of this web site. Bruce Beveridge is always finding new details to incorporate into making a Titanic model as accurate as possible. I am not sure if there will ever be a definitive Titanic model, but there will be some darn good, historically accurate ones! If you haven't downloaded the tutorial guide yet, don't hesitate to do so. Check out Roy Mengot's guide, and use them both. Keep checking out this board and we can all help each other build showpieces.
Best regards, and good luck!
