cost and realism analysis

When we do a cost and realism analysis, we're really just asking if something can actually be built for the money—and if it'll look and feel right when it's done. It’s that gut-check moment where budgets meet physics, and you have to be honest about what's possible. The numbers might say yes, but if the model looks fake or the materials don’t hold up, it’s back to the drawing board.
