Odd, then, that Reid did the art for the Amtrak calendars for so many years. They didn't "hype" him, or make money from his work.

Puh-leeze. You trashed him. You said, "Only Kalmbach kepy hyping them cause they got money from them." So you were in effect saying that Gil Reid wasn't a good enough artist to be popular on his own, he was only popular because Kalmbach forced his art on the masses because he worked for them. Ding! That's one on the "trash"-meter.
You said, "No sense of motion just lines and linear." C'mon. An architectural drawing is "just lines and linear". Ding! That's two on the "trash"-meter.
You didn't just say they were overrated, you said, "His paintings however were WAY over rated." Note that "SHOUTING" part of your quote? And you're doing this all on a "Rest In Piece" labeled thread. Ding! That's three on the "trash"-meter. Let me ask you, do you routinely go to wakes and funerals and tell the family and friends that they're loved one's work was "WAY overrated"? Just classless, man. You want to be critical of his work? Start a new thread. And you're doing this trashing under the name of an old time poster "Curt Mc"...the same guy from the Atlas Forum. I note we still don't know your name..."curtmchere". Oh, and if you doubt my existance as "Paul", be assured I'm using my real name. Go ahead, look me up (hint: I'm in Massachusetts).

So, he's a nutter, but he's not the person he claims to be? I was wondering about that. I'd seen posts by Curt Mc on other forums, and couldn't reconcile them with the drivel posted here under that name.
Cheers,

Sad to hear someone who's meant a lot to railroading pass away, irregardless of what some on here would say. Question: didn't he also do a few regular non-painting related articles for MR as well (you know, layout articles and such)?
To guys like you anything is trashing, please be a man In the real world you have to take it. What do you do for a living that lets you hide and complain anyone says anything you don't like??
And sure, "Paul" that is your name. Paul > >
Yes. His series on designing and building the Portage Hill and Communipaw was a landmark IMO. It ushered in the "project railroad", although it took a while for MR to realise that's what a lot their newbie readers wanted.
Heh. I mock your pitiful attempts to be amusing. What's next? Gonna tell me to "get a life"? Or "my mother wears combat boots"? Grow up, and get a real name...if you even have one. Oh, wait, I forgot. You have an appointment at the nearest Funeral Home to trash the recently departed (too bad you gotta walk there since you're not old enough to drive). Have fun!

Dude, get a grip. No one is above being criticized (even you). But to do so on an RIP thread about a guy that just died? That's cold, man. I hope you can live with yourself 'cause I sure don't know anyone who would want to live with you.
Fine, buddy boy. Check out this pic of me with about 35 of my fellow railroad club members:
I'm the one with the beard and the Conway Scenic Railroad hat, and that picture was taken at the same club as above. Note that in the link above, there's my Earthlink account name "cutler2". Gee, now why would I have that? I mean, it's not like my last name is "Cutler" or anything...oh, wait, IT IS! Gosh. Who da thunk it? And just for kicks, here's another photo link of me:
Have a nice one!

************* Weather Or No Go New Haven *************How old are you? You post under a fake name which spells Pac Man, a kids game. Telling.
Grow up, I have whiskers older than you are s> > You are another person with no social skills who hides on internet
Yawn. Those are pictures you found on the internet and say they are you, that is fraud. Dude, we know you are a fake. But why are you so angry?
Someday when you grow up you will find a woman (or more likely pay one) to be with you. Then you will be a man. For now though "Paul" (is that the name you use on the phone sex lines?) we know you are a fake name poster child.

Well, you just scared the life out of some of the regulars now. And, for the sake of the dead guy, here's a new thread where we can go hammer and tong at each other and not offend.
I haven't decided who to pick on. Give me a reason not to pick on you and don't send me a link to another picture of Bigfoot.

He was a talented painter and a fellow railfan. May he rest in peace.

I remember seeing that series in some very old MRs that were given to me. I didn't realise that Reid was the author. Have to look then up again!
Tell me, loony, how do you think you could help anyone? You're far too busy projecting your own problems onto others.
LOL! Thanks heaps, godbotherer!
Still feeding the troll?

Yeah, I know. Shouldn't kick cripples, shouldn't feed trolls...
