I could approach the question from another direction. I believe anyone who has the desire, dexerity and time will excel at this hobby. <br /> <br />With that said, I myself have learned from other members of the family by watching them work. And later in life other people giving small presentations and simply buying a kit and trying to build it. Sometimes it turns out well other times the results were pitched into the parts bin. <br /> <br />Regarding the availiablity of scenery and products designed to fill out a scene really is awesome and makes it possible to build a convincing kit with out too much labor. <br /> <br />I would look at some of the very old issues of MR at some of the photos of scratchbuilt kits or even just raw materials by both average and skilled builders and really see no difference in the final result. However I would think that a proper number of sheets on a toilet roll hanging on a wall of a privy is a bit much. Even so, I applaud and celebrate anyone of any age who builds things in this hobby. <br /> <br />Lee
