Modeling
55 RMC/Dremel Kitbashing Award: Kitbashing a logging industry critter by Bob Whetham

72 Scratchbuilder's corner: Photo-modeling by Bob Walker
A good camera, a decent printer and quality paper can become model making tools.

77 Modeling those green M&St.L boxcars by Clark Propst
The Minneapolis & St. Louis owned 700 40-foot AAR 1944 design boxcars. It takes just a little bit of kitbashing to model them.
