Welcome to Episode 120 of The Modelgeeks Podcast!

In this episode we ask the simple question, “Is Modeling Fun??”. We often discuss the hobby in terms of it sounding like “work”, or that it is a chore, and leads to stress vice enjoyment. That’s not how it should be!

El Presidenté is vacationing so, with guest host Rob Riviezzo (aka Rob Riv), of “The Modeling Insanity” podcast, we tackle that question and more. We’ll also cover what we all have happening in our “Model World”, what each of us has been up to at our benches, and other aspects of the hobby we all try to enjoy!

Share your work with us and the rest of the scale modeling community through our web page, or through our Facebook community page. We love seeing other people’s work. Who knows who you may inspire through your latest masterpiece!
