D tank) and will get back to finishing my Revell 1/96 Constitution. [foogallery id="3260"] *************************************** WHAT’S ON THE BENCH Stuart - Trying to get the Beaufighter done for the “Let’s go Pacific group build” Too much club show planning and other real-life tasks have sucked bench time away.  Also reading Shattered Sword - The Untold Story of Midway Geoff - mostly real-world granddad stuff this time, but I did pick up a number of built-up kits in support of a local RCAF social group (1/144 Martin Mars, 1/72 Avro Avrocar, etc) and have been stripping them and cleaning them up. Most are rare, odd resin things and I’m really enjoying the process of bringing them back to life! Terry - I should be done with the 1/48 Fine Molds Mitshubishi Babs by the time this episode airs. I’ll get photos this week. Cleanup work on the 1/1400 Aldrin Class continues well. I have been replacing some greeblies, and need to to a bit of scribing reinforcement. That’s always the problem with 3D printed kits - if they have a lot of details it’s difficult to remove the grow lines. This will disappear as each generation of printers improves. I know how I want to paint this, and will need to order some registry decals from G-Cals. Just finished Tom Cleaver’s Under the Southern Cross, his second book of the early pacific air war. ************************************** SPONSOR AD #2 Seans Custom Model Tools ************************************** THINGS WE’VE SEEN Modeling for a Buck or Two https://reviews.ipmsusa.org/ https://www.nats2023.com/ G-Cals custom decals for SF subjects *************************************** THE LAST WORD SMP Ep. 118 is also sponsored by Return To Kit Form (R2KF).

D tank) and will get back to finishing my Revell 1/96 Constitution. [foogallery id="3260"] *************************************** WHAT’S ON THE BENCH Stuart - Trying to get the Beaufighter done for the “Let’s go Pacific group build” Too much club show planning and other real-life tasks have sucked bench time away.

Terry - I should be done with the 1/48 Fine Molds Mitshubishi Babs by the time this episode airs. I’ll get photos this week. Cleanup work on the 1/1400 Aldrin Class continues well. I have been replacing some greeblies, and need to to a bit of scribing reinforcement. That’s always the problem with 3D printed kits - if they have a lot of details it’s difficult to remove the grow lines. This will disappear as each generation of printers improves. I know how I want to paint this, and will need to order some registry decals from G-Cals.

Did a clean and re-org of the workbench which gave me a bit more working room and some mojo. [foogallery id="3235"] Geoff - vacationing with family on the east coast for most of the last two weeks so no modelling, but I did visit a great Military Aircraft museum in Greenwood, Nova Scotia and bought a few books! Read “Shattered Sword - The Untold Story of the Battle of Midway” by Jonathan Parshall and Anthony Tully. Excellent read and a look at the battle from the Japanese point of view, using Japanese primary sources. Highly recommended.   [foogallery id="3224"] Terry - a little progress on the Mitsubishi Babs. I had to repair some seams but now it’s all sealed up. I should get started on the panelling and some nice moderate weathering then be done. I’m cleaning up a 3D print of a TOS type variation of the USS Shenzou.   [foogallery id="3225"] ***************************************   SPONSOR AD #2 Seans Custom Model Tools   *************************************** THINGS WE’VE SEEN      *************************************** THE LAST WORD SMP Ep.116 is also sponsored by Return To Kit Form (R2KF).

Did a clean and re-org of the workbench which gave me a bit more working room and some mojo. [foogallery id="3235"] Geoff - vacationing with family on the east coast for most of the last two weeks so no modelling, but I did visit a great Military Aircraft museum in Greenwood, Nova Scotia and bought a few books! Read “<a href="http://shatteredswordbook.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Shattered Sword</a> - The Untold Story of the Battle of Midway” by Jonathan Parshall and Anthony Tully. Excellent read and a look at the battle from the Japanese point of view, using Japanese primary sources. Highly recommended.   [foogallery id="3224"] Terry - a little progress on the Mitsubishi Babs. I had to repair some seams but now it’s all sealed up. I should get started on the panelling and some nice moderate weathering then be done. I’m cleaning up a 3D print of a TOS type variation of the USS Shenzou.   [foogallery id="3225"] *************************************** SPONSOR AD #2 <a href="https://seanscustommodeltools.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Seans Custom Model Tools</a> *************************************** THINGS WE’VE SEEN *************************************** THE LAST WORD SMP Ep.116 is also sponsored by Return To Kit Form (R2KF).

Group Build Finescale Modeller Build a Model Month *************************************** MAILBAG Gareth Recent discoverer of your podcast and love it...great news and tips but the best is the banter between you all, and of course the guests. I noted in the most recent podcast there was mention made of "UK museums in England" or similar. Just wanted you to know we have some great aviation museums here in sunny Scotland as well, including the National Museum of Flight just south of Edinburgh, which contains a Concorde, Vulcan, Spitfire, Harrier, Tornado, Canberra and of course the only place in the UK where there is a Red Arrows Hawk on display. Well worth a visit! National Museum of Flight Anyway...wanted to pick your brains...a few years ago I flew in a T6 Harvard in Florida...I now have the 1/48 kit to make, but wanted two civilian pilots to add in. Do any of you know where I might find 1/48 scale civilian pilots?  Also on the subject of Iron Maiden's Bruce Dickinson...were you guys aware he flies and displays his own WW1 fighter aircraft (a Fokker Triplane) as part of the WW1 Memorial Flight. Saw him at RIAT a few years ago and quite the display. Thanks again guys, love the podcast! We had some RCAF Hornets pass through my local airport recently (Prestwick International Airport) and managed to grab some photos...handy for weathering references (need to scroll down the page a bit) https://fineartamerica.com/profiles/gareth-burge/collections/aviation+the+jets  Cheers, and looking forward to each episode.

I noted in the most recent podcast there was mention made of "UK museums in England" or similar. Just wanted you to know we have some great aviation museums here in sunny Scotland as well, including the National Museum of Flight just south of Edinburgh, which contains a Concorde, Vulcan, Spitfire, Harrier, Tornado, Canberra and of course the only place in the UK where there is a Red Arrows Hawk on display. Well worth a visit! <a href="https://www.nms.ac.uk/national-museum-of-flight/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">National Museum of Flight</a> Anyway...wanted to pick your brains...a few years ago I flew in a T6 Harvard in Florida...I now have the 1/48 kit to make, but wanted two civilian pilots to add in. Do any of you know where I might find 1/48 scale civilian pilots?  Also on the subject of Iron Maiden's Bruce Dickinson...were you guys aware he flies and displays his own WW1 fighter aircraft (a Fokker Triplane) as part of the WW1 Memorial Flight. Saw him at RIAT a few years ago and quite the display. Thanks again guys, love the podcast! We had some RCAF Hornets pass through my local airport recently (Prestwick International Airport) and managed to grab some photos...handy for weathering references (need to scroll down the page a bit) <a href="https://fineartamerica.com/profiles/gareth-burge/collections/aviation+the+jets" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">https://fineartamerica.com/profiles/gareth-burge/collections/aviation+the+jets </a> Cheers, and looking forward to each episode.

I think I’ve got the scheme I’m going to use.     Geoff - working on finishing the Hobbycraft 1/32 P51A Mustang in a one-off “dazzle” camouflage scheme from 1943/44. It’s a skill building project and not a super detail project, so the focus is on masking, finishing and weathering.   Terry - solid work done on the P-43 and Cavalier. The Cavalier white coat might be good enough to start gloss clear. The P-43 is ready for decals. Wish me luck! Starting cleanup on Moscato’s Dragunn.       ***************************************  THINGS WE’VE SEEN Geoff - visited the RCAF Museum in Trenton, Ontario last week. Not a huge museum, but we’ll done and very good docents with lots of information. If you are modelling a Halifax, they have one fully restored (non flyable).

The Scale Model Podcast - EP 103 - Back to the Future

This show gets so much better as it goes. With tons of modeling news, excellent guests and much information, it’s the one of the best podcast in North America. Thanks again gents! Keep it up!

Good Show Part 2

The podcast is growing on me.  It helps keep me engaged with my hobby. I always stay a few episodes behind because I like to ration it!  Great to listen to in the car as I run errands.  Thank you guys for all you do to keep us informed and entertained.  I do have one criticism and it echoes what was said in a previous review - Stuart needs to work on not interrupting when other people are talking. I know his enthusiasm gets the best of him but he needs to be silent more often when others talk.  Hope that doesn’t sting Stuart, it’s offered as a constructive criticism and a helpful suggestion to make this already great podcast even better!  Rock on my neighbors to the north!!!

Gets better and better

The podcast is all about the scale model kit hobby. Interviews, reviews and news all about the scale model kit hobby. Hosted by Stuart Clark. <a href="http://scalemodelpodcast.com" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">scalemodelpodcast.com</a>

Thanks to our latest Patreon supporter! Tony Jacob Hosts Stuart Clark Anthony Goodman Listener Mail AMS – Advanced Modeller’s Syndrome Tony Jacobs talks about our reluctance to try new things. It used to be that we could try and fail in the privacy and secrecy of our own hobby rooms but with social media the benefits of trying and failing have become something some of us don’t seem willing to do. I looked at a couple of my builds over the last 10-20 years and realized that even just on the subject of weathering, my skills have evolved hugely. I’ve attached some pics numbered in chronological order to illustrate what I mean.  The Tiger was the first time I tried ‘weathering armour’. It’s got a toy-like uniform paint finish, near rusted-through tracks, and weird yellow ‘dust’. Through a succession of trial and error learning with pigments, washes, paint finish variation and lots of other experiments I went from that through Stügs with ‘designer mud’; to Shermans with improving paint, dirt and mud but strangely perfect markings (and figures with that ‘1000 yard stare’… I still hate figures); to Matildas where it’s starting to come together; to my one and only show medal winner… the Uboat. The Matilda or the Uboat would never have happened if I hadn’t first produced the weird Tiger. But not trying new ideas that might result in weird tigers means that people will never improve their skills. My first piece of advice when I’m asked about things like weathering is ‘just try it out’. It’s the start of a never ending process of learning, of ever improving builds, and a whole lot of fu.
