'If you like videos about imaginative scale models and all the things that inspire designers to dream them up, manufacturers to produce them, and hobbyists of all ages to build them, then subscribe and click that notification bell icon so you won’t miss a single video. Join me on a personal adventure as I explore the science fiction and fantasy model kits of the past, present, and future.' What's up, Plastic Addicts? I could've come up with my own description of what Scale Icons is all about. However, Tim's own write up covers it far better than I ever could!
Tim was a fascinating guest with a unique approach to the hobby. Yes, he's a builder. However, rather than create the standard 'here's what I built/How I built it', he creates videos detail the development and history of some of our favourite model kits.
I became aware of the Scale Icons YouTube channel thanks to the recommended feed on my home screen. It was, I believe, the old TOS Enterprise by AMT. The subject was interesting so I took a look and was super impressed by the depth of research and the high quality presentation.
Later on I found out that Tim is actually local, so we were able to meet up (in person!) for a conversation before doing an episode of the SciFi Model Podcast together.It was in interesting conversation, learning about Tim and how he came to create scale icons.
I hope you enjoy this episode and be sure to check out Scale Icons on social media!
