This podcast had quickly become one of my favorites. It takes an in-depth and well researched approach to the world of miniatures and scale modeling that is dense with theory, thought, and intensely introspective ideas. I find I often listen to episodes two or three times to be able to take everything in. Highly recommended!

This show centers on miniature painting, scale modeling, and the artful storytelling that happens through small, carefully crafted scenes.
