You need to promote this I had no idea you had a podcast.
Wish they would produce a good old steam train!! built the planes, boats, cars etc.
still would love to see the Wall-E
Greetings all.
Need advice on painting. I’m doing the Enterprise D and plan to make some color changes. What would be the best paint to use? Acrylic? Enamel? What would be the best texture, or paint type? Any advice would be grateful. Thanks.
London Taxi perhaps.
Another ship,
Definitely a Steam Engine.
Would still like to see a HMS Hood partwork to go with Bismarck.
The 1965 Batmobile it’s out there somewhere Eaglemoss had it or at least had a pre sign promotion
Very interesting and informative podcast. A lot of questions of how a model goes from conception to reality. But my question is, how difficult is it to get the license? Why is that the UK is allowed to build a U.S. car, but the U.S. the model is not available?
Best podcast yet. Love to see what you struggle with and the kinds of stuff you guys love about this hobby. I found in my first part work that I hated something’s and some things I loved. I don’t think I could do so many builds at once. But I realize you have to do so many for content creation. Would love to hear a breakdown of how you choose a build and how you layout the build from a organization stand point. And thank you for the charity information as a disabled USA veteran that will help me.
Larger scale traditional models such as 1/16 armor kits are booming now after a long period of being dismissed as a niche, so these large scale partworks now have a much greater pool of potential builders. Nostalgia is also a strong draw getting to build my childhood heroes in model form.
I would love to see a 1/8th scale 3.0s or Brooklands Ford Capri
Great bit of insight
Dave should slow down and speak slower. He sounds so coked up and nervous.
I would love to see a few more British models .. it’s all American cars; sci-fi; etc … or WW2.. some more iconic stuff like 1/8 original Mini Cooper; MK1 Land Rover; or a Morris Minor .. but I would like one of those .. split screen/2 door/but with the cheese grater grille (probably too niche!).. ; aircraft wise would love an extra large scale DH 98 Mosquito.. or a Short Sunderland; …sci-fi for me Gerry Anderson.. Thunderbirds.. how about a Fireflash? Stingray, etc..
I doubt there will be another bus like the Routemaster .. but a Green Line Single Deck coach from the 1960’s.. modernised RF (AEC Regal IV) with the twin headlights .. but failing that .. another Routemaster but a coach version with the folding doors and twin headlights .. or an RML .. ie the lengthened version so could have it in LT Country Area Green
