Bram:

In your opinion (who else's?), what are the most important aspects of a model?
a) Overall form, shape, and detail
b) Functions, playability, structural integrity, moving bits
c) Color scheme, realistic use of color

If you needed to write a mathematical formula relating a, b, and c in order to
choose a "best" model, what would it be?

Hmmm... Either a*b*c or min{a,b,c} I think.

Generally I find b/number of pieces quite important. So I
might reformulate the two options, with n being the number
of pieces, as:

   a*(b/n*x-y)*c, x,y > 0

   min{a,b/n*x,c}, x > 0

I would probably let x be around 100 and y be around half
the maximum.

But why don't you include an "overall rating" and use an ANN
(or similar tool) to find a relation between the specialised
ratings and the overall rating?
