This really is one of the best hobby channels on YT. Can't quite put my finger on why - maybe the tight editing and short length, appropriate amount of dry wit, tips that are genuinely not talked about in other channels, excellent graphics and production quality (especially for a one-man show) and a lack of b-roll and royalty-free music segments. You don't waste our time regardless of how long the video actually is and that's a real skill! Not that those things are always bad, but the brevity and conciseness of your videos is my favorite thing about your channel and is very refreshing.

One thing I’d love to see, based on your comment at the end of this video about wanting to move slapchop forward is: a guide to undercoat slapchop colors that aren’t just black. Should shadows always be dark blue? Should the be reduced value of the main color? Should we mix a smidge of the contrasting color (color theory not paint type) into the main to make the undercoat? Im not artistically trained, so a guide like you did with inks would be incredible.

So far all the videos have been great and don't divide my attention, given the topic. I think if you approach this as you are teaching and sharing something, then postv what YOU like. I understand there's a monetary need as well, but if you fill the content with things you think people want (or even if they ask), you'll likely get burned out by fulfilling what others ask and not what drives you to create content. The balance between terrain and painting is cool, along with things you discover, like the inks and hobby tools. If there's a way to do a survey you can gather input on, then it might help to create filler every month or so. Stay the course you're on. It's refreshing to see a new creator making great content across a wide range of hobby topics.

Apparently I do watch these sorts of channel premise updates, I'd never have guessed. I'm old and I'm british, now let's move on from the generic sign off reference and film some full on Charlie Farly and Piggy Malone serials I noticed your Patreon about two weeks ago, I held it up to the test and didn't enrol. The test is to line up value against alternative patreon because I can't get them all and hobby content has to run against STL subscription FOMO which is for me a mental illness Right now I content patreon support Alex at 52minis, which is my main hobby hangout and Marco who's educated me to better effect than everyone else, and made a genuine change to my thinking and results. 90% of the evolution from being a simple get them on the table army painter for about 38 years to painting the best I can (on some models) is down to Marco's painting genius and skill at teaching the thinking to the clumsy. So tho I thoroughly appreciate the genuine quality of your content my support was limited to subscribe, like and comment. Basic algorithm stuff. That was the wrong decision, I do that sometimes, the previous two vids have been standout quality, genuine top drawer and this one explains a clear vision for the future with total humility regarding financial support. My respect has doubled in size and grown a new head. Come the first I'll be a patreon/patron, couldn't be more deserved unless you had a black woolly hat pulled way down and an umpah intro tune.
