MRR Kitbash a loco contest

I've heard a few comments on the anti-MR topic for a while. Whats the other mags people read? I personally am getting a lot from MR right now, but the more resources one has the better... especially in the bathroom.

It's not so much anti-MR as it is not the rag I grew up in the hobby with. When I started reading them as an 8 year old in 1968, it was more a hobby of innovation and creativity than it is portrayed now. Today's MR more resembles a trade magazine with its product specific references and how-tos. Nothing wrong with that, it's just not worth my $6 to go over things I learned to do long ago with rawer materials and more primitive technology. I just prefer to stay stuck in 1976 8-)
