Trevor Jones writes I am sending you a picture of my bench with the Extra Special Super Gargantuan Giveaway items sitting on it, as you can see I have some small 1/48 scale figures I am in the process of painting for my ON 30 model railroad layout, but these will come in handy when I start on Bandai’s Alto Blue Kit, my first Gundam. Thanks again and I really enjoy the podcast. I am slowly convincing my model railroad friends that some of the techniques and products the plastic model world has made model railroading easier and vice versa.
What kind of cross-pollination do we have in our skills? I learned a lot of woodworking from my Dad, and use those assemblies, finishing, joining etc. skills. I use airbrushing and hand-painting along with pens etc. to make bird cutouts for friends and family at Christmas, after 20+ years it’s a bit of a challenge to find wild birds people might have a chance of seeing at home.
People ask how their hobby can help their career, there’s a lot of possibilities.
