September 30, 2012 D6G Ep 112: Plastic Production & Digital Diversions
Eric Johns joins Craig and Russ in the third Chair. Eric is one of the big cheeses over at Wyrd miniatures, the miniature gaming company responsible for Malifaux, Puppet Wars, and more nightmarish creatures then we'd care to think about.
Since Wyrd just made the jump to plastics, we figured Eric would be a great person to help us get insight into how plastic models are made, and how this process differs from metals.
Later, we discover that Eric actually plays quite a few digital games, so he and Russ talk about their favorite easy to pick up and play digital games.
All that and our other not-too-horrible segments including:
