Is the HAMB becoming more professional?

This is my second time on the HAMB and I see a huge difference in the tallent here. I think we all grow because of the HAMB and believe that that growth attracts all kinds of people including "professionals". I'm always amazed at some of the people I run into here....Just loved the thread on modifying Hot Wheels cars where one of the designers at HW posted....just too cool....

 

The whole hobby has become more professional. The bar for the whole hobby gets raised every year and we try to stay abreast of the upward movement.

The HAMB is just a microcosm of that movement. I'm not sure that I like that. I hope we never get to the point where a beater is frowned upon.

 

I don't post a lot, but when I have a question it gets answered beyond satisfaction. I personally have learned many tricks by reading the threads, and I second what Ryan said.
thanks HAMB!
