Scratch Built

Scratch Built, Kit Bashing, Scrap Build. All these terms refer to the art of creating something from items that were not meant to be used for the purpose that they have been. Someone has seen beyond the obvious and created a vision of what was in their mind. In essence, they have brought to life their creation.
Whether it is using plastic scrap from the kitchen bin, or pieces of a purchased model, the artists have been able to create something that was not meant to be there, and so we and the term SCRATCH BUILT to cover all these possible combinations of creative talent.
This volume is about Tanks & Artillery vehicles and equipment created by some the most inspirational artists I know. They have used their imaginations to create works of art that in many cases could be converted into legitimate models in their own right.
As always, not all artists are professionals, and to be honest, that's the point.
The Scratch-Built Series is not just about professional model makers or creators. It is about everyone involved in the hobby, having a go, reaching out to find the creative designer inside and then sharing their design with the world.
Come on a journey with us and see what people have created. Like me, I am sure you will be amazed and intrigued.
