After completing my Kit-Bash of the Art Curren Gambol,Waite and Hope building from his Book entitled: Kitbashing HO MODEL RAILROAD STRUCTURES, i thought this would be a good basis for a Bit-Bashing Contest. I have made very good use of this book, which is Out of Print at this time. Mine was published in 1988, the year I started my layout. This book will be the prize for the winner of the contest, shipped to your place of residence free of charge!
This book has really helped me become proficient at Building Stock Building Kits, Kit-Bashing from this book, Kit-Bashing of my own designs; or, Scratch Building Buildings. Once you Kit-Bash or Kit-Mingle as Art liked to call it a few of his buildings, you will only look at the contents of Building Kits as the basis for building something unique to your layout. I cherish this book, however, I have realized how important the book is to a model railroader and the truth is I no longer need it and maybe someone else can make good use of it.
THE RULES:
The rules of this contest will be: I am the Judge, Chef Cook and Bottle Washer. I will make the decision on who is the winner, based on photographs you post here at this contest and the discussion you state about what was changed from the stock kit, all posted here in the General Discussions Forum and here on the Model Railroad Forum! The Kit-Bashed Building can be something new you have built; or, a building you Kit-Bashed from parts you found in the Bilge of the Mayflower, when you where coming from the old country. The only requirement is that YOU where the builder (for this I will have to rely on your HONESTY)! You also need to outline what you did making the building a Kit-Bash
