On The Bench

This episode the boys are joined by Sam Dwyer to talk about building Meng's F4 Phantom. We are Sans the Falcon this episode but we do have some listener emails.

With Dave overseas the OTB team will be taking a break for a few weeks and will be back on the 17th of Feb 2023.

The boys welcome in 2023 with their plans for the New Year.

The Falcon reports in with a LONG list of new kits and we see what you had to say in the mail bag.

For the last show of the season Dave Ian and Julian chat with Dr Strange Brush, a.k.a.John Miller, on airbrush basics.

Thank you to all of our wonderful Patreon supporters, SMS paints and of course you, our loyal listers for helping make this show what it is.

This episode the boys have a chat with a very mediocre modeller Brad Belsheim in a wide ranging discussion AMPS, armour modelling, visits to the US and Australia, and everything in between.

Despite the fact that Brad is named as a "mediocre modeller", he is in fact a very accomplished award winning builder......but lets' not allow facts to get in front of a good yarn.

The Falcon joins us for the last "Whats new" for the year and we dive into the mail bag which has brickbats and bouquets.

Dave Ian and Julian are back in the studio and take time to catch-up with all the mail and news from the Falcon that has built up since they were last all together.

In this episode Dave and Ian venture into the Nation's capitol, Canberra, to enjoy the SCALE ACT 2022 model show.

Along the way we find Sam Dwyer who, between trips to various sites and museum visits, joins the boys for the intro. A veritable conga line of guests serve their time behind the mic bringing their own take on the show, the models and their passion.

For those of you missing Julian, fear not! He will be back on the next episode along with news from the Falcon and your questions and musings from the mailbag.

The boys look back on the last 149 episodes to talk about the top ten.

The Falcon drops his latest list of what is new in the modelling world and the boys dig into yet another huge mailbag.

The boys are joined by Chris Meddings for an interesting chat on his work with supporting Ukraine model production companies via his new podcast as well as the new book.

The Falcon returns with his mix of news and comments and of course we have the mailbag.

So tune in, sit back and chill out!

Julian is back this episode and joins Dave and Ian in a great interview with the amazing Lincoln Wright as we discuss his new book MK 44. (At the 55min mark)

A huge mailbag and exciting news from the Falcon.....all that and more!

Just Ian and Dave this episode as poor Julian is away sick....we wish him all the best for a speedy recovery.

The Falcon reports in with news for the hobby regarding new kits. The mail bag is bursting at the seams....so we have a look at what you guys have been keen to share with us.

Lastly Ian and Dave have a chat about shelf queens......Dave thinks that they are a sign of a good modeller.
