Episode 26: Pat McGrath
Listen now
Description
Based in Dublin, armor modeler and orc sculptor Pat McGrath is a talented miniaturist, as well as a fine artist, an actor and a playwright; he performed a brilliant one-man show about our hobby, Small Plastic Wars  (which we urge you to listen to here), that stands, as far as your hosts Barry and Jim know, as the only theatrical masterpiece exclusively about this odd pursuit of ours.   We also talk about two of the themes in the play: modeling as therapy and (again) the idea of exhibiting vs. competition, and then we chat a bit about other appearances of our hobby in film and television. You can find photos and links to information discussed in each episode at our podcast blog on  boxdioramas.com  Check out some other great modeling podcasts on modelpodcasts.com We want to hear from you!
