Episode 46: "Smush it Real Good" with John Simmons and Robert Crombeecke
In this episode Tracy, Chris, and Will discuss chipping, talk to Robert Crombeecke about Scale Model Challenge 2023 (https://www.scalemodelchallenge.com/) and look back over the first two years of the Sprue Cutters Union, reflecting on the amazing guest interviews and what they have brought to the show.
This episode's interview is with John Simmons (https://www.facebook.com/johnsimmonsscalemodelling) and John tells the guys all about studio scale modelling, specifically replicating models made for the Star Wars movies, the challenges of sourcing the correct parts, and even replicating the colours and weathering techniques used in the ILM workshops in the 70s, 80s, and 90s.
You can see John's models on his Facebook page, on Instagram, (https://www.instagram.com/john_simmons_scale_modelling/?hl=en) and on the RPF Forums (https://www.therpf.com/forums/)
