Bench Time #193: Matthew Hankins - Patapsco Falls Division

Welcome back to the Bench Time Podcast, this week we have Matthew Hankins back on the show for his second appearance! The last time we had Matt on the show, it was for Episode 127 when we talked about his work with the Four County Society of Model Engineers as well as some of his modeling work.   This week talked with Matt about his diorama work, working with the different scratch builds, shadow box builds and how keeping the variety of work changing allows him to keep his attention span fresh.   Then he goes into his scratchbuilding process for all the different wood sections he builds on his structures. From some sections being the modular wall sections from FOS Scale Models to using strip wood to layer on all of the different features on more unique buildings.   We also talk a lot about the different styles and the different things that drive each of us as modelers… It’s not the destination, it’s the journey!   Watch Matt’s videos on his Patapsco Falls Division YouTube page: https://www.youtube.com/@patapscofallsdivision2579    Check out his Patapsco Falls Division facebook page here: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100064555072590    The Patapsco Falls Division website at: https://patapscofallsdivision.net    Feature photo credit: Matthew Hankins - Patapsco Falls Division
