Episode 92: Solo Benchtime + Undervalued work, AMPS Recap, Rocky Mtn. Expo Promo

Episode 92: Solo Benchtime + Undervalued work, AMPS Recap, Rocky Mtn. Expo Promo
The Posse is (almost) all here! We missed Jensen (Happy Birthday) but have one of our best collective episodes in a while with great discussions.We recap the recent AMPS Nationals, with a segment featuring JB, Scott, Ian Bonner, and Jonathan (ModelDoc) Anderson. We also feature a segment outlining the team behind the forthcoming Inaugural Rocky Mountain Expo in SLC on June 22. JB interviews Scott, Barry Beideger from Small Subjects, and Shawn Earl on this new Model Show. We also have some great listener feedback, discuss whether we have work that has possibly been a little underappreciated, and whether or not we as modelers underappreciate our own work.  Another interesting discussion revolves around JB talking about times where he just needs to shut the social aspect of modeling down for a while and get some work done at the bench solo. This also leads to some introspective discussions of benchtime - music, podcasting, zoom calls, and even modeling together in local clubs! Please join us for Episode 92 of the Triple P! If you would like to become a Posse Outrider, and make a recurring monthly donation of $ 1 and up, visit us at www.patreon.com/plasticpossepodcast .Plastic Posse Podcast on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/PlasticPossePlastic Posse Group on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/302255047706269Plastic Posse Podcast MERCH! : https://plastic-posse-podcast.creator-spring.com/Plastic Posse Podcast on YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCP7O9C8b-rQx8JvxFKfG-KwOrion Paintworks (TJ): https://www.facebook.com/orionpaintworksJB-Closet Modeler (JB): https://www.facebook.com/closetmodelerThree Tens' Modelworks (Ivan): https://www.facebook.com/ThreeTensModelWorksSPONSORS:Tankraft: https://tankraft.com/AK Interactive: https://ak-interactive.com/Tamiya USA: https://www.tamiyausa.com/Support the showSupport the Show.

Episode 84: Happy Holidays 2023 + Clayton Ockerby & Stephen Lee
It's all 6 of us together again, and we wish all of you a Happy Holiday season with a MEGA episode for Christmas! We wish you all a Happy Holiday season, and as this is our last episode for a few weeks, we thought we would leave you with a big one to chew on for a while. We are joined for not one, but two feature interview segments. Our first segment is with Clayton Ockerby from Workbench Hobbies and the Modeling News. Clayton's new Workbench Hobbies channel on YouTube is fantastic, and we highly recommend it - if you haven't seen any of his videos yet - go visit and give Clayton a like and subscribe. Let's help him get to his goal of 10K subscribers! Our second interview is with Mr. Stephen Lee from Sprue Pies with Frets, a fantastic scale modeling centric blog. Stephen recently penned a forward looking article about Scale Modeling Organizations, and he references some recent challenges that IPMS USA has been facing. Most importantly, Stephen utilizes his background in Non-Profits as well as the Military to propose some principles that could help IPMS and other Scale Modeling organizations look to the future.TJ leads us in 2 different discussions about 2023 in Review, and the challenges you may encounter when building a model to photos or references. We also have a great time and do a little laughing along the way.  We hope you will join us at your bench, in the car, or while exercising for some fun, and some discussions about the hobby we all love! If you would like to become a Posse Outrider, and make a recurring monthly donation of $ 1 and up, visit us at www.patreon.com/plasticpossepodcast .Plastic Posse Podcast on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/PlasticPossePlastic Posse Group on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/302255047706269Plastic Posse Podcast MERCH! : https://plastic-posse-podcast.creator-spring.com/ OR loungetrousers.comPlastic Posse Podcast on YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCP7O9C8b-rQx8JvxFKfG-KwOrion Paintworks (TJ): https://www.facebook.com/orionpaintworksJB-Closet Modeler (JB): https://www.facebook.com/closetmodelerThree Tens' Modelworks (Ivan): https://www.facebook.com/ThreeTensModelWorksWorkbench Hobbies YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@workbenchhobbies4316Sprue Pies with Frets: https://spruepiewithfrets.wordpress.com/SPONSORS:Tankraft: https://tankraft.com/AK Interactive: https://ak-interactive.com/Tamiya USA: https://www.tamiyausa.com/Support the showSupport the Show.
