TGIF fellow fine scale freaks!! This week on episode 47 of The Bench Time Podcast, Brett shares his techniques for painting structures with a sea sponge to give an aging, peeling paint, weathered effect. Then Todd and Brett discuss how they scenic out a structure once it is placed on the layout and how to focus on just that small area of concentration to create a scene. It is one thing to just build the structure and add details directly to it, but it is an entirely different and at times more or equally fun to create the scene separate from the building in its immediate area to tell a story about the structure. It’s definition of purpose. That structure isn’t done unitl you fill in the region around it!
We also take questions from our listening patrons about modeling issues they have. So get to work on that bench this weekend, fill that coffee cup up (or crack a cold one) and listen to our latest episode as you do your thing!
And have a Safe and Happy Thanksgiving from Todd and Brett Wiley of HO Scale Customs and the Bench Time Podcast!
