What's your preference?

[cotto]

Your model on a cover of a magazine or a trophy for first place on a big show? I think I like the cover!

[edward smith]

Good question. I prefer the cover of a magazine, it gets a lot more noticed than a trophy.

[MikeMc]

Neither......I build for me.

[wraith]

I have a couple of trophys from 2 different models and they are cool but I would rather have them on the cover of a mag! or just in the mag!

[Darren B]

Im the same way i have ribbons some plaques and trophies but would trade all that for the cover shot!

[Terry Sumner]

Cover???? heck I'd just be satisfied to get a pic of one of mine anywhere inside a magazine!

Not going to happen unless you submit something...

Kind of like winning the lottery. You can't possibly win unless you buy a ticket.

Neither......I build for me.

Yep , same deal here , I just build because I want models I can't get

[Sixx]

In the mag. Got in twice...another ...yikes...magazine don't bash me too hard! LOL!!

[Guest]

I've won first place trophy's before, I'd definatly go with the magazine.

[MachinistMark]

cover.

[geordie]

Neither......I build for me.

I agree, I'm not likely to win a trophy or get one of my efforts on a magazine cover, I'm content

[Ben]

I wanna be on the cover in my birthday suit!!!!!!! Wait....................what were we talking about??

[Dave]

I want to bo on a cover with a swimsuit model admiring my latest build....but seriously, I'd love a cover shot. I have a few trophies, but the first time I saw one of kits in print.....WOOHOO! What a rush.......so yeah, give me a cover.......and the girl

[Dave Wood]

I've been in the mags and have won trophys at shows and I;m very humble, but I would realy like to have a cover shot.

[moparfarmer]

I enter a lot of 1:1 car show and have won my share of trophies,Best of Show,Best Interior,Best stock appearing engine,Best paint and all. Even went undefeated at Mopars in the Park during the mid 90s with my 64 Fury Convertible. You can have all the trophies/plaques you want, the best would be a Magazine shoot and over the top would be a cover shoot. Just didn't happen. Now it on to models which I will never get even a picture in a magazine because "Box Stock" doesn't get too many shoots.

[The70judgeman]

I build mostly because I like to. I have entered a few contests in the past and won a few plaques and a ribbon...I'm done with contests. I wouldn't mind seeing one of my models on a magazine cover, but I see much better builds than I can do that deserve it. So, neither is really that important to me as long as I'm happy with the end result.

I'd just be happy just getting one of my cars inside the magazine.........wait a minute....I got two in the Contest Issue.

[Gluhead]

More power to you guys who are driven by either...neither has ever motivated me to do this.

[Ramfins59]

I've had my share of trophies over the past 20 years, and, I've been lucky enough to have had about a dozen of my models pictured in various model and 1:1 car magazines over that same time period. I've also been fortunate to have had a feature in a magazine over 12 years ago. (I'm NOT trying to brag here) I honestly feel that getting your model pictured in a magazine is way more gratifying than winning a trophy because your work is exposed to such a larger audience than at a show. Winning awards is cool and definitely fun, but getting a picture of your model published is way cooler.

[espo]

I usually build a model the way I would have it in 1:1 scale. But I have also been fortunate to have won several trophys and even had a pucture of a '56 Chev 210 I built in another magazines " contest issue " a couple of years ago. All can make your chest puffup a bit. But most of all I just injoy building models for my self.

[george 53]

I gotta agree with Mike Mc. NONE of my cars will EVER be inna magazine OR cover, I don't build for that reason. My fellow clubmembers see them, but it's not important to me to have them inna contest or cover.

[Scale-Master]

Both at the same time is pretty cool...
