What do you think?

Oh interesting, let me know how it goes! I find you can always learn something - heck I still watch 101 painting videos on YT to this day and sometimes I recall "oh yeah, that's something I always skip" or some such :D

I'm going to a local mini painting class tomorrow night. I really hope I'm able to learn something new. I dont know who the instructor is but if he/she is the same person who paints the minis in the store's display case I think I might be better then them! But I'm going in optimistic and will be a good student. Regardless I'm thinking of volunteering to teach a begginer class 1-2x per month. Real basic things like washing the minis first, cleaning the mold lines and flash, priming choices. Real basic stuff.

Good to know! Thanks for the feedback :)

Having little short tutorials is a no brainer for most of us. Even if we already know it, it's always good to see how someone else does things (even brush cleaning). So many of us learn on our own or from someone else who really doesn't know what they're doing, and it's always amazing to see a better and more efficient way of doing some task.

Thanks a lot Manuel :) It's actually a constant frustration for me. All I want to be able to do is paint but I don't always have the time from my life to do so - and I've really tried to step up my production value which means editing takes much longer. The balance between quantity and quality is rather difficult to figure out and something I worry about constantly (who know running a YT channel could be so stressful!) Currently, I think I'm still doing well - I'm certainly no where near Sorastro with thousands coming in every month and not even a miniature each month. My overall goal is to just do it as much as I can and be honest to everyone about it so it's as big of a part of the channel as I can handle. These side videos are super easy which is nice and I can bulk do them. I hope to take a day (after posting the Bonsai Daimyo) to film a couple in a row and just have them ready. Really glad to hear you thought the video was done well! I still hope to improve over time in the new format but good to know it's not garbage :) As always, you have a personal line here on Patreon to provide feedback at any time.

I agree with Patrick. You do have a knack for explanation and being straightforward. As long as you don't stray too far and keep it relevant, I think content is better than no content. What would definitely hit the channel is if the painting videos become scarce, replaced more and more often by other types of vids.

Thanks for the feedback and kind words Patrick :) I've seen other channels attempt to branch out and be hit hard by their own viewers so it's great to see the support you all have for me! Always a nervous thing to do on the content creator portion of it!

I thought the video was great - you’re very good at presenting educational information, so I’m confident about learning something new from your videos. That’s why they’re generally must watch videos for me. And the KIckstarter information was very informative - definitely gave me insight into the lifecycle of the process. Thanks!
