Another from the same source.

I remember a Garfield from about 20 years ago where Jon started building a tall ship model, got totally frustrated with it, threw everything in the box, shook it up, and magically got a perfect model out of it.

The Calvin and Hobbes one reminds me of a book 'Conrad's War'.  I read it when I was a kid and the details are fuzzy, but Conrad ends up taking part in WWII in the model Lancaster that he's built, not that skillfully and ends up getting shot down because bit's of it are gummed up with glue.

There is, of course, this classic, from Winston Rowntree's very wonderful Subnormality: http://www.viruscomix.com/subnormality.html

Next to the 'bigger boat', Tom Selleck on the poster of Raiders of the Lost Ark, that's attention to detail!

Spooky: just as you were posting about "attention to detail", I was re-reading this one: http://www.viruscomix.com/page567.html

Thought that was an advert for Heritage

I love Subnormality ever since "The Museum of the Theoretical" was first shown here a while back, nice to see it again
