Realistic models are usually variants of idealised models, parametrised to study a specific atomic or molecular system with a certain degree of realism. These models are usually designed to reproduce a subset of experimental physical properties, thus a certain model may be more suitable to a particular study, whist quite possibly being wholly inadequate in the study of a distinct question.
