Armor modeling vs. Casual modeling

I've observed over the past that armor modelers are often the most intense when it comes to historical accuracy and detail. This isn't always a bad thing, and the point of this post isn't to condemn or support the rivet counters. What I'm curious about is to know if anybody here ever builds a model just for fun? Some OOB, no frills classic Tamiya kit, warts and all? And if not, then where do other casual armor modelers hang out? Is there even such a beast? I for one have noticed that when I build aircraft I can let a lot of things go, but I tend to get a little more pedantic about my tanks.

I've heard a few folks refering to a "Spanish School" and I wonder if that's what those folks are about?


Just causal observation/commentary on my part. Thoughts?
