Repetition is the only proven way to get better at anything, and in a year you've grown tremendously. Your knowledge and skills, certainly, have gotten better, but the key to your new success is your newfound confidence. Fear-- being afraid to make the next artistic move-- can affect creators in a way that holds them back. Once you gain the confidence that tells you, "No matter what happens, I can fix it," you are free to do your best work. As an illustrator, I believe that entirely. It seems to be the case for a lot of modelers too, and I'm betting that confidence in your own skill set has been the factor that's sent your work to a higher level! I'm a fan, and I appreciate your channel a great deal. I'm binge watching this week on my breaks while on a tight deadline, and you don't disappoint. Keep up the great work!
An OUTSTANDING job on this restoration!!.. Looks better than it did when it left the Lesney Factory!!.. All the fiddling you had to do on this one paid off!!
Lovely resto Jason and interesting to see the two Bedfords side-by-side. Funny how the slightly different silver/chrome paint on the front ends makes the two of them look so different. They don't look like the same vehicle from the front. You can kinda tell the latest one is a resto - the paint is *so* clean and white. Congratulations on a great first year. I hope you'll get more subscribers during the second year - you deserve them. Cheers for now, Dougie.
Very nice restoration. The comparison with your first on camera restoration clearly shows the progress you made. Hope to see more beautiful restos. Congratulation to your first anniversary on TH-cam.
Great restore mate I really enjoyed it just one small criticism when you tuned up the backing music during the speed up it was really loud compared to when you were talking. But wow you really have improved in leaps and bounds from your first restores keep up the great work.👍
Great job Jason! What an interesting video ! Really interesting. I don’t know why you do not have more subscribers but I really enjoy and appreciate your videos - Congrats
Congratulations on your first anniversary. It’s always a pleasure watching and listening to your videos, and I can honestly say I have watch all your videos. I look forward to many more years of work from you.
Great video Jason. Your modeling has definitely improved but so too has the background info about the models and their prototypes and your commentary has also improved. I look forward to your videos each week. Thanks for providing such great entertainment for us mate.
Great job on side to side video. Nice to see how much your channel has improved. I just posted my first video and am looking forward to improving. Matchbox Revival. Cheers!
Nice one Jason, another fantastic job as always .. happy 1st birthday/anniversary to your channel, and plenty more to come... keep up the great work buddy Stay safe 😷
Great restoration Jason. Please could you tell me if all the Ford Thames Estate 70a vans have glass. I have just bought a 1950s one with no glass. I wasn't sure if the early ones had glass. Thanks Jeff

Turned out amazing. Looks like new. I do a lot of content on rare diecast muscle cars and trucks maybe you might want to check it out and we can trade subs to help each other out. Thanks for sharing

Beautiful. A classic model deserves a classic restore. Good work. And congrats for an entertainer and productive year.

Sorry for that I don't know how that slipped through! Audio has never been my forte 😂
Happy anniversary, Jason! You’ve come along quite well. The rattle can + short history format is brilliant. Love it, don’t change it.
Very sharp! I've done this one myself. Mine had a pencil sharpener jammed in the back!
Fantastic restoration!
Love seeing the improvement and look forward to seeing what you do in year two.
What a fantastic idea! It shows how genuinely good you've become. Great stuff.
Well done Jason we all get better with time
Nicely done, sir. The improvements in your skills are obvious and do you much credit, keep you the challenge.
Happy bday! Congrats on your success!

Thanks Jeff
I’ve got one of each, with and without, so I imagine that’s standard!
That's great Jason. I would assume the early one's didn't have it. Thanks for your help.

Great Job! It's always easier to criticze than create! Don't listen to the green-eyed monsters out there.
Your Welcome
Looks like the decals on this were a bit fiddly...
Aww I thought we might get a face reveal!
Haha I hadn’t thought about that. Maybe next year 😉
Turned out amazing. Looks like new. I do a lot of content on rare diecast muscle cars and trucks maybe you might want to check it out and we can trade subs to help each other out. Thanks for sharing
Please. Decals not transfers! Thanks
