Welcome to Episode 5 of the Scale Model Podcast.

In this podcast, I aim to entertain, inform, and hopefully promote the hobby of scale model kit building, with interviews, reviews and news about the scale model hobby.

Great response to our last episode with Jeff Hodgins

Sites and tips

Jim from A Scale Canadian suggests using disposable eye liner brushes.  He got 100 for under $10 from Amazon. Great idea so you don’t have to worry trying to clean Mr. Surfacer or liquid cement out of one of your good brushes.
