    I did the math. Accounting for Al the hobbying, work, and assuming he sleeps 8 hours a night. He has 12 free hours a week. Let’s assume 10 because of his D&D game, if he works out every other day, with the workout he does, it probably takes around 45 minutes give or take. So down 3 or 4 hours from that. My conclusion: Vince is a higher life form that can do nearly the impossible for time in memoriam. It is better we mere mortals stay out of his way, as his kind will someday grind us beneath the gears of true progress. Or he sleeps less than 8 hours a night, and drinks lots of coffee.

    I think this is one of my favorite videos of the year. Not just because the editing and script is solid. But I think this is a letter of appreciation and inspiration to a fellow hobbyist. It is interesting to see from 2005 to date how there are great personalities of our hobby that in the great and absolute majority have inspired and supported the new generations of artists and hobbyists in our miniature world. I think many of us in the hobby admire people like Vince, for sharing passion and wisdom. Thank you very much for this video Scott, it's hard sometimes (due to shyness or other barriers) to really thank people like Vince for what they do for the community. This video is a great reflection of that. Inspiration, discipline and fun, what better message than that? I also hope you have a great Christmas Papa-Scott and a great start to 2023.

    I really like Vince Venturella, he helped me a lot in my early stages of hobby painting, which was only a few short years ago, but he really helped take me from simple paint by colors to creating things that wouldn't look out of place being shown off in the FW Horus Heresy catalogue to someone that feels comfortable coming up with his own schemes, using and knowing when to use a variety of styles, an overall sharper quality of miniature painting and most importantly, being able to pick up on things I can improve on and thinking of ways to improve on them on my own, instead of just marveling at something I did, thinking it's the best thing since sliced bread. Also, a lot more respect for Vince now knowing that he makes an effort to exercise and stay in shape. I like to lift weights pretty regularly and I don't think enough hobbyists get enough physical activity in and it's a shame because it messes with productivity. Vince, if you're reading this as I know you really like to look through comments, consider walking regularly if you already don't, very good for cardio without killing yourself and thank you very much sir for the hundreds of videos on advice, thank you Miniac for giving me a little slice of life for the guy who has taken me so far in my skill for absolutely nothing of material value at all

If he's sleeping about 8 hours a day that's 56 of those hours, 40 for his day job and that golden 60 means that's 156 hours slotted with 12 per week remaining for commuting, eating, exercise, family time, etc. WILD at how efficient he is.

    Beautifully put together video Scott! A wonderful tribute to Vince for sure. :) I think one of the best things about the hobby as a whole is no matter your current skill level there's always ideas that can be thrown around to inspire one another regardless of you being completely new or a decade veteran of the hobby. Sure, you'll have different end results but as said, it's part of your own journey and I think that's a really important element people often forget. I loved that you touched on how social media or people who hobby full time can put a spin over the everyday hobbyist and the realism of it. So thank you for that and letting people know that's okay to not live up to the glass hype that sometimes gets spun. I hope you and your family had a great Christmas and wishing you all a happy new year, thanks for a great year of content and looking forward to seeing what 2023 has to bring. :)

    When I started painting years ago, Sam was my favorite painter. Everything he did, I 'got' it. Over the last six months though, I've had to reconsider as I've continued painting, as how Vince approaches his 'work' and time has bled into how I paint more than any single content creator on the platform. The man is brilliant. I love this video so fucking much. The last two have been fantastic.

    Auuugh! Resin splash of doom!! I want to win painting competitions, finish armies, and put my painting on KZread. I know why I don’t though - I have a career and a family I love, and with 24 hours in a day, something’s got to give. The thing I can do is paint a bit each night, and not worry that I’m probably not going to make it to Adepticon again. I’m proud of my painting and enjoy the time I spend, and if that’s as close to the painting life of a Vince or Scott as I can get, then I got there! Wow. I can see my house from here. Awesome video!

    Scott, I think this was one of your best videos to date. The look into Vince's world was fascinating, but I really appreciated the soliloquy at the end--great perspective and very relatable. Best to you and your wife up in your "frozen hellscape" in the new year. Been pretty cold in Buffalo these past few weeks, so I satisfied on the subject for the moment....

    Vince's words remind of an old saying from some Drum & Bugle corps (forget which one). Their motto was something to the effect of "in the relentless pursuit of the edge". The magic is something that is always just out of reach and when you get closer, it has moved farther away again. Gaining mastery of a thing always reveals more of the potential of the thing. This is a source of joy. For we can always dream.

    In regards to the dialogue on hobby time for individuals and youtubers alike. I'd like to represent the hobbyists out there with very young kids. My time spent on hobbying when I had my first fell off a cliff. Just when my first was getting old enough to leave me be for half an hour, we had our second. It's been over 4 years that I've had a completely derailed hobby schedule. Games, painting, you name it. I don't regret it at all. But it's important for people with kids to tell themselves that it's fine....for NOW.....getting 15-20 minutes in every couple days with a brush is completely normal. I don't know if any of the popular youtubers have kids, but I'd love one day to hear their take on tackling this kinda time management.

    Thanks for this video. You (both you Scott and Vince) are a constant source of support, ideas, and general good feeling about this hobby. I started painting in 1990 at about 12 years old - with terrible results. There was not much you could learn from - your mates making the same mistakes, some Heavy Metal guidelines from GW, or the "old lore" from model train hobbyists. So thank you and the general miniature painting family. Also: made my day that the outro scared the tar out of my wife :) She'd never heard the Miniac's "paint more minis" yell.

    This last monologue at the end is a whole vibe for me. After months of learning how to use a 3d printer combined with boxes of orks I got for Christmas last year (including the holiday box last year) I had in total like 90+ boyz n elites, 4 hqs, a proxy for a gorkanaught, and 4 vehicles..... yea Ive felt a bit overwhlemed. But given what I have going on in my life and not putting too much pressure on myself, I just finished all the troops and elites after like 4 months of painting when I can (minus the bases but Imma do them all at once when I finish everything else). Content like yours, Vinces and Jons have been helping me a lot a I appreciate the hell out of yall

    Totally agree with your big point near the end there. I've noticed in music and I've noticed in painting that if you can do something everyday and be intentional with it you will improve. To anyone struggling with how to practice painting I recommend checking out videos on tips for practicing an instrument. There's a lot of good ideas there about how to focus on some specific skill and improve it with daily practice.

    I appreciate your take on the "full time" YT vs. "hobbyist" in regards to some of the vids that are released (paint an army in X time, look at my painted unit that came out today to the public, etc.) As a content creator myself...though WAY down the food chain from the "we all know each other" crowd, I can say with certainty that it is a whole hearted feeling of "keeping up with the jonses" trying to make relevant content while still maintaining a day job/ family time. vs. creators who do this as their full time job. As much as i'd like to say the content creation space is inclusive, there is a huge divide between the "full timers" and those of us who are finding a footing. Personally after trying to reach out to literally the top 20 content creators in this space, only 1 responded, and that response was "i'm too busy". So it's nice to see some acknowledgement that sometimes ya'll come across as a bit flashy and can set the bar a bit high for the rest of us as hobbyists in general. I actually enjoy the more down to earth vids like this, vs. those "can I do X in Y setting" vids, as this style of vid is applicable to the 95 percent of us out there that aren't fortunate enough to make a living from content creation. Keep up the good work Scott, and I hope your fams has an excellent holiday!!!

    Dragon Trappers Lodge has consistently been my favorite miniature sculptor as they have never tried to make off brand minis but always make creative sets of new monsters that look good and print well as 3D printed minis. A lot of printing companies make sculpts that look good but don't print well or worse are just tenuous to paint with excessive texture or to miniscule detail.

    60+ hobby hours a week equals a minimum of 8,57 hours a day, standard working hours gives us 40 a week which translates to 5,7 hours of work daily, assuming that Vince paints more on weekends we can say that those estimates give a correct number of 14,3 hours of work + hobby every single day. This leaves 8 hours of sleep and 2 for driving to work, eating, DND, his wife, dogs, watching tv, etc. Thus simple answer forms: Vince doesn't sleep. That's the magic behind being so productive, you've just got to become a cyborg.
