I've seldom made anything from the magazines or books i have.But when i need just the right piece i can find it with some trouble.I like having them even though they are not used .I like being in the know for a few bucks every other month.It's the only magazine i buy.I kept up with airbrush books and magazines for decades but they are terrible now with demonic stuff and reptiles ,more on the dark side so i don't buy AirbruishAction anymore .The 10' stack of airbrush magazines and books will hold me the rest of my life.i have every book too. :D :)
