Every now and then, a modeller comes along that can actually USE the word SCRATCHBUILT and mean it. So, for those that do use this word scratch-built willy-nilly and then claim to the greatest, then you better take a real good look at this lot. He has actually EARNED the right, to use this word. Not like some impostors, that do a lot of chest beating, on some of these forums. forum.truckmodelworld.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=5545&p=1 |

Somehow I just knew where you were going with that comment. And I agree that this
gentleman is truly a scratch builder.
But I tend to give credit where credit is due, whether it be to people who completely build models from scratch, or use CNC machine to cut out their parts, or those that kit bash and scratch build parts for their models.

Isn't it funny these folks with these nasty comments and snide remarks about other people's work, never seem to show any of theirs to be critiqued. I personally could care less how the model is built, or how well, I like them all.

The funny thing about all this is I have seen some AMAZING MODELERS here as well. Bill, Tony, Radish, and there are many more that I could mention as well as Matt (monkeyclaw), with his 1/16 stuff. My best scratching is my head trying to figure out how to even try to absorb all the info.
It doesn't matter whether someone has a cnc machine, makes their own parts from a sheet of plastic, we all can learn something from each other and keep our snide remarks to ourselves.
