Talking Shop with Mike and Kentucky Dave: Episode 123

Plastic Model Mojo

What if your modeling productivity could skyrocket just by tapping into the excitement of football season? Join us on this lively episode of Plastic Model Mojo where Dave shares how the energy of football season is boosting his modeling game, and Mike opens up about juggling personal and family distractions. Despite car troubles and the back-to-school chaos, Mike finds joy in teaching his son the value of scrapyard car parts and spotting a real-life car painted like an anime cartoon, sparking some fun discussions.
We are thrilled to welcome listener mail from folks like Will Woods from Yorkton, Saskatchewan, to discuss the challenges of attending distant scale model meetings and the potential of starting his own club with the help of his local hobby shop, Sky's the Limit. Along the way, we laugh over some pronunciation mishaps and express our hopes of attending Bill Moore's show in Middle Tennessee. Plus, we give shout-outs to Scott Huber for his brass toothpick appreciation and Neil Henkel for inspiring his girlfriend to build dioramas after a model show visit.
Dive into practical tips on organizing modeling workshops, from storing scratch build materials to innovative paint storage solutions. We tackle clear coats and decal applications, sharing our experiences with different products and techniques. Don't miss our review of new model releases from T-Rex Studio, DukModel, Sova M, and Kora Models. Wrapping up, we express heartfelt gratitude to our supporters and share how a new tablet has revolutionized Dave's productivity. Keep your modeling mojo alive with these engaging conversations!
