Bench Time #70: Boxing Day, Mini-Con Recap, Patron Topics & Painting Figures

This is Episode 70 of the Bench Time Podcast with Brett & Todd Wiley! Episode number two of the week resumes our normal schedule and it’s just us again this week, BUT that doesn’t mean we aren’t having a BLAST with it. This week we get into a quick recap of the Mini-Con and Clinics day we went to last weekend and then we transition into some of the Patron Questions of the week. If you’re interested in becoming a Patron and keeping our show thriving, you can check out our Support Us page. We did add a couple of new ways for you to contribute and be a part of the show so if you’re interested in that, you can head over to our Support Us page and check it out there. Okay enough of that, that’s not why you’re here. After we go over our Patron’s questions we dig more into our favorite techniques on how to paint our 1:87 scale figures and people. We’ve been painting only Preiser figures, but we know there are others out there. So let’s hear your favorite figures to paint! Weekly Contest Updates: Lynn McCurdy won last week’s podcast contest where you were supposed to post a photo of your “ugly duckling” to the comments section of our pinned post on our Facebook Page. This week, we’re running with the same format, so post your favorite model railroading or model building tool to the PINNED POST at the top of our page to win a small HO Scale kit for you to assemble and put on your layout! We also understand that some of you may not be on Facebook, so you may email your pictures to [email protected]. He will add them to the contest with JUST your first name to the comments for official entry (for those who aren’t on facebook). All entries must be submitted to us either by email or as listed on our Facebook page by 11:59:59 PM PT on Wednesday night 4/24/19.
