Feedback Wanted.
14 years ago
Grettings Huntfox here. Ok for the past couple of days I've been tossing around and idea in my head so I thought id get some feedback on it. I've been thinking about doing a modeling tips and techniques thing on youtube. Basically work it so that once a week I post a new video im where a certain technique is discussed and demonstrated. Maybe even follow a build from start to finish incorporating different techniques. Also even have it to where any watchers can ask questions and the best be discussed in the following episode. Im kinda thinking it a useful thing because im sure there are many modelers out there that read the articles in mags such as fine scale modeler and millitary modeler and such but like me don't really grasp the concept of a technique until it is actually able to be seen being done. So anyway what do you guys think, yay or nay?
BTW are you going to upload my train pic?
As you say, we read about techniques in the magazines but i myself sometimes struggle with sludge washes (go on, laugh now !!) and scribing panel lines is an absolute nightmare. To see someone actually doing it and seeing how they get round problems (doesn't always tell you that part in the magazines!!)
Plus different people have different ways of doing things, would be good to see a few different takes on the same thing
As for panel lines... I scribe them, then sand them and they get full of gunk. So i rescribe them, and then sand them, and they get full of gunk!! This usually goes on until i either give up, scribe through the plastic or the panel lines end up looking more like WWI trenches 'ala Matchbox'
The joys of modelling, huh
