      Exactly.. you learn nothing. It’s about how big a terrain they can make, how many products donated and etc. I’m going back to print as I find it much more informative with detailed photos and instructions.. YT is ruining more than just the hobby.. go pick up some modeling books as they’ve become cheaper and not “but wait, there’s more” type nonsense.

    When you got to the sponsor segment, I was expecting to have to skip some scripted mobile game ad.

    This might be due to the knowledge base I have from your other videos but I feel like this was in some way, a good refresher. It was a "here's the techniques I used, this is what it looks like at the start, middle, and end."
    A no fuss review of the results various techniques can give, essentially.

  • @KabinMiniatures
    @KabinMiniatures 2 ปีที่แล้ว +8

    2:38 I really agree with this point. I think that's why I sometimes enjoy painting older models from the 80s, 90s or early 2000s, more than modern sculpts. While the modern ones look impressive when done, they tend to be a bit of an uphill struggle to complete sometimes due to their abundance of details.

    Getting out of one's comfort zone is important to growth, but I think it's also important to remember to kick back and just enjoy the process at the level you're at, wherever that is at the moment. Growth is great, and something we all strive for, but it's so important to remember to just relax and feed our passion a bit without putting additional pressure on ourselves. Would love to see more of these as you walk through your process without trying to blow our minds *every* time. Cheers from a newbie inspired by your work!

    Honestly I think the simplicity of this video idea and project made it more enjoyable than your recent average. Hooked me from start to end, just getting to watch you take a really cool sculpt, and give it a nice, character filled paint job.
    Interesting and punchy video concepts are cool, but there's something relaxing about a video where it's just someone hobbying.
    I think my favorite part was the fact you chose a sculpt that's incredibly detailed, and has an awesome concept / visual storytelling, but isn't cluttered visually. GW models are cool, but as you point out they're often cluttered. With this bust every single element is very carefully chosen to give it character, but there's no 'junk', nothing that's just there to look cool with no function.
    I'd love to see you paint more models like this, or your custom Vampire mini that you commissioned, in this more relaxed style of video.
    Peaceful hobby vibes 10/10
    Paintjob 10/10
    Model choice 10/10
    I hope you make more content like this in future.

  • @disposable_income_andy
    @disposable_income_andy ปีที่แล้ว

    I love this guy. I think the hat is less of like light or color, but it's more like a powder in his hat that reflects his chef career, like flour or sugar. Even before he was painted I could instantly imagine what this guy was like, and that speaks volumes to creating a miniature. I like the blood, too. Personally I would've gone without the collar if I designed this guy, but the addition of blood there looks great, like this guy has somehow bled before, but it's the only time ANYONE will ever see him bleed. You did a great job not making the sci-fi inspiration too obvious, as well. When I clicked on the video, I didn't expect it to be one and now that I'm at the end, I can still hold that thought in my head that he would fit within like the 1800's if you just changed that goo from green to red. He's like a background character you can imagine in a pre-20th century fantasy novel.

    When I drill holes for mounting or pinning, I drill the hole bigger than the thing going into it. This gives me some wiggle room if I don't get the hole in the right place. I fill the gap with epoxy putty or CA glue. This also lets me square up the figure on the plinth if necessary, and I can clean it up when I paint the plinth.

    The vibe I generally get from YT hobby channels that paint 40k stuff, is it’s a grind. Takes ages to prep a bunch of models, prime, paint, weather, base it, then do it again with the next bunch of models in a conveyer belt style fashion.
    Didn’t get that from this one. You can tell you actually had fun and enjoyed it.

So I wanted to buy this, and mentioned to the seller that I'd seen you paint it on YT; so he inquired if I'd also seen the doctor vid-the mini was right next to the chef. I hadn't, but het offered me both mini's at a discount that I just could not refuse! And the price was already lower than the website one. So I hope this demonstrates to the mini makers that sponsoring works. And thank you for getting me a good deal without even lifting a finger. ;)

    I'm so inured to the clickbait and fakeout titles of youtube, it took me nearly the whole video to realize that this was literally just a painting video. Excellent stuff.

    This is a great format! Its great you slowed down and realized that every vid doesnt have to be a Holy revelation! Large patches of flesh are the absolute most intimidating thing to me in painting minis.

    Skin and eyes look especially good, love the tentacle pattern. Nice work!

    All the mini painters should do some "incredibly normal" painting series. I think it's much better for people who are actually trying to learn and get into or back into the hobby.
    And it might also convince people to give more love to the 'boring' figures.

    No idea how these perform compared to better bait, but this is great content. Fantastic model, beautiful paint job and no gimmicky hacks that I'll never actually apply.

    Scott -One of your best gigs thus far (IMO)! Great vision and even better execution.

    We can still learn a lot from just watching you work and have you walk us through your steps and processes.

    Hope this video does just as well as your others. Really enjoy this sort of thing. You'd be surprised how informative it still is just to see your process start to finish

    i dont know about others, but I really enjoy "normal" mini painting videos.

    A return to form. Great job. Skin tone is superb. Blending is top notch. Overall impressive. This is you firing on all cylinders and driving in the lane you have not only paved but have mastered driving on. You should take pride in this. It is an inspiration to painters like me.
    No dead/poisoned weird “artistic choices” abstract skin tones this time.

    Pretty new to miniatures, and this is one of my favorite vids yet. I can honestly say I learned as much or more from this as any of the "sick painting trick hobbyists don't want you to know" videos.

    Frankly, given the way you painted him, I feel like the cracked plinth is actually spot on thematically. Feels like a dude from the galaxy's greasiest spoon.

    Your freehand makes that tentacle looks amazing. Good Job.

    Oh my lawd the way you showed the paints and ratios on the palette was just *cheffs kiss*.
    I would watch a whole series of these for sure - all the little details and shots are so relaxing. It's like you managed to distill the enjoyment (and some of the frustrations) of painting a mini into one, neat little vid.
    Cheers!

    As a chef who works a lot and use painting as a hobby, this video made me feel good. Very nice work mr Miniac.

    That was refreshing and very "sponge-worthy" as well! 🤘🤘😀

    dude...that freehand looks wicked!!
    though it would be cool if the tentacle have super strong highlights or even like a varnish to give it a wet slimy look and have contrast to the main figure :P

    This was soothing. I liked that there wasn't an angle.
