I like the time-lapse on your videos and the explanations, 1. could you include the different types of brushes you use in application and why ? 2. could you slow at the start of the application to show what you are wanting to achieve on light, dark, and blend, thank you , love your work.

[@TheCreativeCollector]

I can definitely do that! Great feedback!

[@ZeppyCustoms]

I love the entire process!! Thank you for the time lapse and all your contributions!!

Yeah I was determined to get this one done. lol

The tutorials are the best part learning so much from your channel

[@haffordj]

new here, first video. I came here to learn whatever you can teach me to fast track my re-entering model painting and I am new to air brushing as well. 3d models take tome to prep, i don’t want to screw up too many too badly

[@TheCreativeCollector]

Awesome. Sounds good.

I would love more of the tutorial side and which exact paints, brushes, techniques, etc.

[@frazierboi77]

I like the videos I take away allot of painting techniques

[@TheCreativeCollector]

Awesome!

[@felipeprato]

Hello; I recently acquired a printer and I confess that my biggest fear is the painting part... more and more printers are becoming more modern and printing more and more perfect reproductions... what doesn't change is the fact of the finish... that's why I'm absorbing as much information as possible about painting and materials used... I'm looking at all the videos and trying to pick up different techniques; sometimes I skip repeated parts of other forms of painting... but with your help; I hope to give a dignified finish to the quality of the print. Thanks

[@brianlinch4622]

These videos are terrific. As one who too loves painting 1/4 scale statues, sharing best practices, paints being used, creative process etc. makes for compelling content (imo). A Timelapse video with commentary over top would be a suggestion on future content.

[@TheCreativeCollector]

Thank you very much!

[@hugorobson4233]

Amazing dude. Perhaps a little more detail on the painting process... I really learn a lot from tutorials, and it helps me (and for sure to non-lazy autodidact painters too) to get better at painting. I'll wait your next video for sure!

[@TheCreativeCollector]

Thanks! I appreciate that. Always looking to put out better content for you guys.

Thank you!

[@GarysGrails]

Great job! I liked the time lapse portion for the record. Go to sleep...

[@viniciuzzgalo]

Your videos are awesome but i will give my point of view. For me one important thing is to share the color and brand of the paints you used on the models, I'm a beginner and sometimes don't realize what is a regular brow or what wash to use, you don have to extend you video a lot just show the paint for one second just enough to take a note. Maybe you can split the video on detailing face paints of the model ( skin tones , eyes etc ) than other one with the rest, i use to follow the workflow from the begin to the end it means that i have to play many times and for sure go until the end to see if my result is getting close to yours. But don't forget to have fun , time is a precious consumable!

[@dariomiguel1804]

Man i like the timelaps videos, why people going foward to the end just to see the end result, the pleasure on this hobby is to see all process of the paitings and see what kind of tricks do you share with us

[@looney_toonzrlm_imc_wcv6190]

I love these videos Bro!!! I myself just got into my own 3D printing for my son, myself and my brother and we are starting to paint them too! I am an all around artist and full time tattoo artist so this was one art path I wanted to take to bond with my son with and your videos have been not only amazing, but inspirational and educational. So thank you for taking the time to put these together for all of us to see and learn! much love and respect! -Yoda

[@markmcguire6984]

Henry you must spend a fortune on washes 😂😂

[@TheCreativeCollector]

I make a lot of mine.

[@ian3314]

Love this color scheme. Gambit was one of my favorites. Especially the old school cartoon version. In future videos would you be able to tell us what printer you used for each statue and maybe an approximate print time? Thanks for the videos! FYI I like a mix of a little time lapse, but a majority "real time" tutorial.

[@TheCreativeCollector]

Sure thing!

[@govergaauw7360]

Nice work dude. You are amazingly talented. If I may offer some critic on the video's you make. The Indiana Jones one is the best so far I think. Also maybe making a little light booth for the final reveals might bring out the details better. Keep it going and you'll go viral in no time.

[@TheCreativeCollector]

Thanks man. I'm working on a more well lit work area just for my videos. I hate the setup I have right now, but it'll get better I promise!

[@govergaauw7360]

@@TheCreativeCollector It's very tough to document as well as create something at the same time. Also the leaving the video in the middle might be people falling asleep. I myself find these videos amazingly relaxing. But always watch em again if I didn't finish them. For your channel growth doing colaborations is also recommended. If you are looking for some similar creators. To take ideas from or anything Ones I like and can recommend are: North of the border kayakasaurus Dr. Garuda Thecrafsman Sanago

first time watching.... dude, thats awesome... im kinda learning about 3d printing, becousse here in Brazil the hobby industry is f@#$ expensive..... nice video man

[@shaungreen9110]

A step by step process video would be great for beginners, like myself, also for beginners who don’t yet have an airbrush. Maybe listing the paint used and alternative paints that can be used would be helpful. Always great paint jobs, though.

[@scottdecleene6071]

Apparently I hadn't watched this video yet. I was looking for ideas for Gambit as I'm currently working on the Rogue/Gambit diorama. Great video!

[@rothgamez]

I know this is an older video but I personally do like the time lapse stuff. I will say that I would like more in depth brush painting tutorials, and also I need a lot of help with my orientation game. I struggle with orienting parts of a model like this one, especially head sculpts.

[@williamrippey]

I do like a more tutorial step-by-step

I’m still new so when you said pearl white, was it Vallejo Game color? Or.. just some honest feedback but man keep it going! See you on the Wicked fb threads!

Ssssoooo yaaaa…can i buy one lol i love how this came out…definitely would purchase one in a 1/4..nice job man

[@TheCreativeCollector]

Sorry but I don't currently sell anything.

[@ChofFlavius]

The key is value, what value is the viewer getting out the video? Instead of timelapse with small commentary where even a couple moments of dead air with no talk is an eternity. maybe pick certain parts that you can give some of your insight on your method. think of how a newcomer might not know whats obvious to you. also maybe bring a little more energy, you seem a littlee bored by your own naration like youre going through the motions.theres way too much time you're not saying anything. Most youtubers do write a script, and that may help you come up with anecdotes or small jokes, or information to help newcomers. and as everyone else said, mentioning the tools you use, getting some hero shots of the work, little things to feel like mor effort was made. You clearly have enough painting skill but you gotta craft the video with the same enthusiasm. Sorry for the ramble, I hope I didnt come off condescending or shitty I just had input i thought may help😅❤

[@TheCreativeCollector]

Hey. Thanks for the feedback. Any ideas I can do to make the videos better, I'll definitely listen to them. I appreciate it!

[@albertorochareyes2427]

Which exact colors did you use? Looks amazing

[@TheCreativeCollector]

It's in the video

[@haljordanlives296]

If the video explains the techniques and materials for me to learn, I watch the entire video. If there is music in the background I pass it fast or I see the end. Great job!

[@TheCreativeCollector]

Thanks! I put a little music on in the background cuz I hate to hear just my voice. lol

[@sonofskyrim1331]

Bro 3am? thats some serious commitment! Ah man don't let the youtube feedback get to ya aye, every channel will have those with short attention spans. Love watching your vids(right through), its like a personal coaching lesson. Time lapse vids are cool with the naration, just a suggestion for future how to videos, some may be curious to see every paint/finishing product brand you use, before application step by step, rather then you just saying "I use a light brown here, or a red here" but at the end of the day, you just do you.

[@TheCreativeCollector]

Yeah it was late but I was determined to finish it. lol I'll definitely put the paint I use in the videos more often. Sometimes when you're in a zone, you just forget.

[@lastlight05]

This format works for me, but I wouldn't be opposed to tutorials, being a beginner hand painter with strokes everywhere. Guessing thinner coats and more of them would fix my issues lol.

Awesome! Thanks for the feedback.
