As for myself, I'm not particularly good, but I do attempt things. I have scratchbuilt 2 steel mill buildings and 9 ingot buggy flat cars. I have modified a bunch of Weaver line poles to have street lights and painted two Divco milk trucks. I have another steel mill building and a highway overpass in the works. At least 7 buildings are in the planning stage.
Just going on gut feel, I would guess we are seeing a decline in the number of modelers.

I would like to see those!
Me too Dave!
OK, happy to oblige.
This is the Weirton Steel Blooming Mill, a backdrop building constructed to sit at a 45 degree angle to the wall.
This is my version of the Weirton Steel Open Hearth.
These are my scratch built ingot buggies (my scratch built ingots are on them).
This is one of my kit-bashed lighted telephone poles (started with Weaver line poles). You can read about them in another O scale magazine.
