The most depressing thing about the Oct MR

I just got my Oct issue today, so I could actually see what the true post was about, and I do have a comment, while for all of us to post our layouts here online and at our personal websites, I am not sure I like the idea that now when I am looking at a print featured layout in MR, RMC or the others is a possible I might be mislead, I know he has an insert story, but still when we view our print mags, aren't we really wanting to see the real train/layout? <br /> <br />Think of what the readers who don't hang out here, they may get a feeling of frustration when building their layouts when they have a preset idea of how the "finished" layout should look and don't get the same look. Also I wonder what his layout looks like with out the hollywood editing. How long will it be before MR and others just enhance digitally things they want to change? Soon we won't know modeled from electronic modeling. I want hold in your hands trains, not MSTS or Trainz type layouts. <br /> <br />For photo taking not in a print/presentation article, sure I agree he can do as he wishes, but in MR we are looking for the whole picture, of course we discussed this not long ago about how we don't get to see the whole layout be it still under construction, maybe they have crappy looking scenery that MR tossed etc. I see using digital photos for modeling and backgrounds, I am doing soda machines, and lumber loads and soon my background. <br /> <br />Still his layout base is pretty sharp. I say we all start editing our pictures to hide all our faults [:D]
