ModelGeek's Podcast

Welcome to Episode 77 of The Modelgeeks Podcast! In this episode, we kick off with what we are in work on, what new items are out there, and what we have picked up lately.

We discuss some new kits and accessories that we’ve seen lately, and El-Presidenté will tell us “What’s New in 72!”. Then Nemo, Frilldo, and Whitey provide a summary of Northern Virgina IPMS’ Model Classic, while El-Presidenté gives us his impressions of his first AMPS Nationals at South Bend.

We end with a discussion on what we believe are the best kits of some of our favorite modeling subjects.

We would like to thank all you listeners out there for the continued support you have given the show. We hope to see you out and about as we hit more of the shows coming up this busy 2024 as well as at the Nats in Madison Wisconsin.

Model Geeks Podcast

The Geeks hit the road and head southwest to the IPMS Roanoke Valley’s “Virginia Shootout” show.

Nothing beats a quick weekend trip with your modeling buddies, especially when a show is happening, the kit deals are HOT and the Mexican food is muy bueno! Toss in a few beers with friends and it’s practically impossible to top for a real Modelgeek!

In this episode we recap our trip to Virginia and the Virginia Shootout. We had a great time, saw some great models, and made some awesome deals on kits that we’d each been looking for. We sit down with show Co-Chair Greg Clower and he gives us a history of the show and the club.
D-ran is still MIA so we play shorthanded once again...anyone wanna take that 5th seat???

Model Geeks Podcast

Welcome to Episode 036 of the ModelGeeks Podcast. In this episode we’re going to have our friend and fellow Modelgeek Gabe “Rage” Pincelli hang out with us, and share his thoughts on the hobby, talk about real world flying and share his take on the hobby we all enjoy.

Of course we’ll also give a run-down of what’s new out there in kits, aftermarket, upcoming shows, and other news around the hobby.

Here is a link to the portable airbrush and compressor Nemo spoke of during the episode:

Model Geeks Podcast

Welcome to The ModelGeeks Podcast. Well, Show and Contest season is upon us! Alright we’ve discussed model contests before here on the Geeks but let’s talk shows/contests from the perspective of being “in show season”! We’re in the midst of planning our first show down here in Pax River (PAXCON23), and we’re learning really quickly how much work goes into planning and running a successful, i.e. FUN, model show and contest. Call it a contest, call it a show we’re there to see what’s on the tables. Let’s leave judging off the table, and talk about what we like...and indeed dislike, about going to a model show with your buddies.

We’ll also give a run-down of what’s new out there in kits, aftermarket, upcoming shows, and other news around the hobby. We would like to thank all the listeners for the support you have given the show over the past year now. We hope to see you out and about as we hit some of the shows.
