    First let me start by saying I love your videos. My only "concern" is the audio. Maybe it is just me but I find the audio levels during the intro section to be quite a bit lower than the rest. I usually have to turn up my volume for the intro then back down for the main video. I suspect it may have to do with mic placement? Again, Ii really do love the videos and look forward to each one.

    So Academy put all that effort into the Cobra, and then slammed on the brakes when it came to the canopy masks - we have to basically be able to steadily cut our own? Can't be done for me; I'm about as steady as the Waco Kid these days. I'd have to hope for someone else to make pre-cut masks before getting this kit, which had me drooling up to that point.

  • @subliminalstyrene811

    @subliminalstyrene811

    5 жыл бұрын

    A normal mould is two pieces, a top and a bottom piece, they are pressure held together and hot melted plastic is forced in under high pressure. A slide mould has multiple pieces, say four that fit together, some of those mould pieces have like a piston built in, the piston is forced into the mould prior to the plastic being injected, after a few seconds, the pistons are pulled back out and the moulds are cracked open releasing the sprue, usually gun barrels use slide moulding, but things like interior details can be added using slide moulding.

    @@tycleverly4816 Really? Name calling? In my original post I simply commented that Andy's intro volume seemed low. After his introduction and the animated introduction the audio level seemed "normal". Emgzz started he "fixed it" . Clicking on his supplied link skips Andy's introduction. Please explain how else one is supposed to interpret that? And what does Andy getting cut off mid word have to do with volume levels? I MUST be the idiot here as I do not see your point at all. A slight error in video editing is not, at least to me, the same as low volume levels. I posted in hopes Andy would read my post and if the issue is on his end, be able to correct it and make his videos just that much better. I am not calling anyone names or trying to ridicule them. Andy puts a lot of work into his videos for our pleasure. If I can assist him in making even better videos by offering constructive criticism I will.
