    Episode 116: Ilya Yut + When to pull the plug on a show build + What are your 3 “Pharaoh builds?”

    Send us a text Grant leads our full crew in a really fun show that has almost all of us eager to meet up at AMPS Nationals next week! (Sorry Grant)  We have discussions on when is it OK to pull the plug on a show build, and if using shows as a motivating factor is healthy or not. We also dive into our own mortality as modelers, and ask the question, "What three builds are your “Pharaoh builds?” The Pharaohs of Egypt were famous for being buried with their earthly possessions and symbols of their accomplishments - so which three builds have you done that you would want archaeologists to find in 10,000 years buried with you? We also welcome back our friend Ilya Yut from Israel, and talk about his recent trip to Moson Show, and also catch up with him on new builds and his recent celebration of his 100th published model feature!!  If you would like to become a Posse Outrider, and make a recurring monthly donation of $ 1 and up, visit us at www.patreon.com/plasticpossepodcast .
