When I kitbash new ships, I usually discuss the progress with other modelers and get and give help whenever it is needed or required. A lot of this has been done through PM's - no point in boring everyone else to death with details that are specific to one project.
And it is certainly not a competition - not to me anyway. If it were, Iambecomelife would be the clear winner at kitbashing, as his ships are the best kitbashes available. I also believe that Cdr Gibbs and Sergbuto are working on entirely new models behind the scenes (although I do not speak for them) - I guess there would be no point in sharing until it were finished. Neither of them are hiding secret info - I have received help from both of them through PM's when I needed it.
I have gotten PM's myself from people wondering why I won't release more of my kitbashed merchants. The fact is, most of them would crash the game if torpedoed. I haven't had time to work on them in the past month, but I am certainly not being stingy.
When they are ready, I will release them - actually I hope to have another one ready this Saturday or Sunday.
Anyway, I think that this guy (forget his username) had a real problem with conduct on this board, he should have been more specific. Although maybe he PM'd someone and they refused to help him, or didn't have time. If that is the case, don't give up here yet.
