[@ForDJWiz]

Just looked at this video again. Just amazing from where you started to where you are now.

[@josephlau8476]

Your model room is very fantastic.

[@lostinthewoods8032]

Hobby heaven, so many cool tools and toys.

[@barbatosrex9473]

Thanks.. After a long day I like to retire to my Gunpla room. On a side note I'm going to start reviewing some of my new hobby tools starting very soon

[@lostinthewoods8032]

@@barbatosrex9473 I hear that man, nothing like some good music and a fun kit to end the day. Looking forward to your reviews and builds!

[@blukara7]

love the runner shelf idea. great setup

[@barbatosrex9473]

Thanks friend

[@ArchGeek]

Nice set up! I appreciate seeing gaming stuff on display, and hearing you listen to metal also! We share a lot of hobbies!

[@barbatosrex9473]

Love my metal. Prog metal is a big with me as is Power Metal but I love heavy music

[@forgivemenot1]

Nice set up, for the super glue try keeping it in the fridge, the cold prevents the glue from hardening.

[@Ally.Cat.252]

Beautiful

[@johnodinsson3635]

Great video, wrote down a couple of ideas for some stuff I might need as well. I need to find a container store...that place sounds great

[@barbatosrex9473]

I just went there today and got some new stuff as I update my bench. Place is awesome for model builders and crafters

[@ada42klm]

Mr. Barbatos, That is an awesome set up you have. It reminds me of an operating room where everything is in its proper place. By the way the word is pronounced ( Taaa - Meee - Yhaaa ) I just figured I'd tell you. Great Job my friend. Cheers

[@barbatosrex9473]

I have corrected my pronunciation of Tamiya in my later videos. I'm old enough have been around when Tamiya came to the US. Back then with no internet the hobby shops just called them as you hear me say it. For a large part of my model building life I always heard it pronounced like that. It's the last few years I was corrected by my distributor. I try to pronounce it the right way since then but the old me slips out every now and then

[@CoopsCollection]

Awesome setup! I just bought my first gunpla kit today and am trying to figure out a good building station.

[@barbatosrex9473]

Good luck with your first kit. Prepare to be addicted. An organized space will go a long way

[@atsylor5549]

Are those weathering kits basically like women’s make up kits but for models?

[@barbatosrex9473]

Yes they are 😉

[@johnodinsson3635]

I was actually thinking about buying some cheap makeup kits to make weathering effects

[@skid7666]

Did you have to do any sealing around your door to the room or basement to keep the thinner smell from going into the house rather than venting through the spray booth? Did you eventually have to add a booster to the vent line or a better window panel for the vent? Currently trying to troubleshoot my setup so I am not forced to airbrush in the garage only

[@sabahtaha1746]

impressive

[@barbatosrex9473]

I will have to do an update to my room

[@rebelspartantv]

Hey bro, do you have a dust collector for your sanding like when you’re sanding gates and such like that?

[@barbatosrex9473]

I don't, I usually do that in my spray booth

[@rebelspartantv]

@@barbatosrex9473 awesome thank you bro I just bought the same spray booth so nice to know it works for both do you notice much fumes I have a lot of computer equipment in same room Don’t want any paint going anywhere other then booth. I have window right by where paint booth will go so should go right out the window :) I’m hoping

[@candcen]

love ur studio sensei!, lets rock at 50s

[@barbatosrex9473]

Thanks buddy, let's rock

[@jaredfinkenbinder]

I have never understood the need to organize the runners. I see this a lot with Gundam modelers. Is this something specific to those models? What am I missing? I just keep my parts trees in the kit box until I need to get a part.

[@TheRandomDave]

how did the CA glue work out in the tamiya jar? any issues or problems?

[@barbatosrex9473]

Its still good. Worked out great. I also used an empty nail polish jar and that's still good too. 👍

[@TheRandomDave]

@@barbatosrex9473 awesome, yet another great tip from your vast experience

[@iangarrett3308]

Wow, nice man cave!! I currently have close to ten big boxes packed with Gundam, sci-fi, military aircraft, and armor kits all brand new by-the-way. I am in the process of moving into a bigger house so I can build my work studio. I quick question, where did you get those stickers? @21:56 Are they custom made? Thanks for sharing!!!

[@barbatosrex9473]

Are you talking about the brand logos? I download images of them on my PC then printed them on photo paper sheets. Then I just taped them to the wall. Thanks for watching.

[@thebigbient8736]

Nice workstation bro, nice and organized. The Gunpla signage a perk from your job? Wish I could get some of those lol

[@stephenelliott7669]

I know this is pretty old but I haven't seen any of your old stuff so I figured I would go as far back as I could you have a lot of content which is good. Did you say that you work at a Tamiya distributor!? Well that's convenient huh wtf that's like perfect no wonder you have so much hobbie stuff lol sucks for people like my that have to pay for all my stuff and as you know Gundam models is not a cheap hobbie!

[@minivipers]

you are addicted to shopping i think...many unopened tool gave me a clue :D

[@e.h.3152]

What sort of metal do you listen to?

[@barbatosrex9473]

Progressive metal, power metal, thrash, melodic death. I love metal music, it puts a smile on my face 🙂

[@nevarism]

May I ask where did you get the camera /phone stand from ?

[@barbatosrex9473]

It's a flex phone mount from Amazon

tamaya?

[@barbatosrex9473]

I'm 55 years old. I started building kits around 1980. My dad thought me. When we started getting Tamiya kits here in the US in the mid 80s we just pronounced it as we thought it was pronounced. Even the hobby shops here in back then called it that way. It wasn't until recently I heard it was pronounced a different way. But I still will say it both ways as old habits die hard I guess. I will do my best going forward with the proper pronunciation

[@creecas814]

Its actually “Ta-me-ya” , not “ta-ma-ya”. Great set up tho

[@barbatosrex9473]

This is an early video of mine, I've since corrected myself. Being 56 years old and into the hobby since a teen, I saw the introduction of Tamiya in the US early on. And being in hobby shops once a week back then I always heard the workers at those stores calling the brand as I say here. I believe they didn't know back then either how to pronounce it. So hearing them called that way by the hobby shops in my early years stuck with me. I even worked for a Tamiya distributor here in New England and they called it like this.

[@creecas814]

@@barbatosrex9473 Ok, luv the set up tho

[@allseeingeyemxs5607]

It's pronounced TA-ME-YA, sorry bugged me for the whole video lololol
