Hiya BenchMates!

We're back with Episode 12, and it's another modelling-packed show bursting with creativity, nostalgia, and inspiration.

This time we welcome one of the true legends of British television effects —
🎥 Guest Spotlight: Mat Irvine – the ex-BBC SFX genius behind the miniature magic of Doctor Who, Blake's 7, and so many other cult classics.

Then, over in Precision by Passion, we're heading Down Under to chat with Scott Taylor from The Scale Modellers Supply, who got up extra early in Australia to talk paints, processes, and passion.

We'll also preview what's coming up next: a deep dive with Jamscrew on their Sea King conversions in 1/48 scale — and yes, that much-anticipated 1/32 version too — plus an inside look at IPMS (UK) Scale ModelWorld Telford, with members of the team joining us ahead of November's big event!

So, clear a bit of bench space, pop the kettle on, and get ready for a mix of behind-the-scenes stories, hobby insight, and a few laughs along the way.

👉 Listen now on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, YouTube Music, or wherever you get your modelling fix!

Until next time — from Brownie and the BTBA crew —
keep well, keep modelling, and remember: you're part of the BenchMate family.
