Model Car Podcast

A wandering tale of a trip to a local hobby store that made Justin think about the state of the hobby, particularly after the buying changes after last year at home. We also talk about new kits, and John has some cool stuff to tease Justin.

John goes full squirrel and falls in love with a new release. Justin has ordered a new spray booth for his new model room and so we discuss the best way to decant paint and spray with an airbrush.

John lays down a challenge. Take pictures of your stash to show us how you organize your kits. Why? Because Justin is trying to set up his hobby room and has more kits than storage! We talk about storage challenges in this episode. Also, we launch a new community build. Listen for more details.

John's being doing ALL the homework this week. And we talk about what he's found. We decide we must live forever to build them all! We also talk bare metal foil. Like always, we do things differently. How do you foil?

We are back after Justin's move. Living in boxes is fun and there are some problems with new modeling room. We look at the upcoming releases and go down a rabbit hole of Japanese foods while trying to figure out what exactly is being released!

It's episode 69 and the boys are a little goofy. We talk about the latest kits and then give a behind the scenes look at what it takes to make a podcast. It's more work than you may think!

John has a terrible secret. He doesn't prime his bodies before he paints. And Justin needs to unpack this strange behaviour and find out what drives the man!?!

John and Justin catch up on what we haven't been building, look at new releases and announcements and try to figure out how to beat the summer building doldrums.

Modellers love a deal. But does our quest for the best deal mean that we don't support our local hobby shops? Justin reflects on his recent experience selling kits and wonders if a current deal isn't at the expense of the hobby in general.

Justin and John apologize for missing two weeks ago; We discuss what new kits we have an drool some of the interested new releases.
