Dario, that was the point of hobbies. Even back all those years ago. People collecting stamps, coins, butterflies, etc. They were to go home and leave the day's stresses, and work behind. Your personal private time away from the world. Gary gave us D&D and all the others that followed to give us an escape. Just like participating in sports. What is cool is building the model and painting it. The happiness of feeling that you have accomplished something great. Hobbies, no matter what you choose. Is good emotional therapy for everyone. The more you practice, the better at it you will get. Music playing in the background is good too. The point of a hobby is to take time to leave the real world behind and relax. Even reading books is a relaxing, refreshing hobby. Sometimes you relax so much you fall asleep. It's not a bad thing, either. Lol. Great subject. You have an idea on discussing things people need to really think about. Some do videos where they take you from the unboxing to construction to painting the minis or models. Those Even appear relaxing to watch. Enjoy life and the holiday month. 🙂🖖✌️🤙

painting minis can generate stress sometimes)) but in a long-term, i love this stress. it is like puzzle-solving process (color-schemes, techniques). i never tell somebody, who just washed his ork in some black-green stuff and add two color, that it is a bad painting, but in my mind i look at that ork and think - "my guy, what an atrocious thing he did to you" good video, without noise and about right things

Thank you! Appreciacted! Yeah I know exactly what you mean! This WEEK I was putting toghter DARK ANGELS for a Horus Heresy Battlereport, my 2nd Game as a Beginner, dipping my toes into the System. And I just wanted to get them as Battleready as I could. It was a positive Stress tough. I don't know why KZbin is filled with, PAINTING YOUR MINIS /WHOLE ARMY in 12 Hours. Take you Time. And give it your all. I draw Comics and Paintings for a Living... and my Minis look cool, but I have friends and they are sometimes better than me. And that shows me that there is room to grow. That needs time! Slow and Steady! Do you have a Topic for me, I should or could talk about?

@@dariostabletopminaturesyeah, social media works like that, cause you need hype things to be on top like - "painting 1000 minis in 30m, that will look gorgeous" and then there is people, that will try to copy that I'm just a stranger from the internet, I dunno about any particular topic to talk) I like your "human" approach! you can tell about comics or horus heresy games or continue about painting, whatever inspire you to tell this to the world I guess 😮

Miniature painting is the single most effective thing I have found to manage my PTSD and anxiety issues. 10/10 recommend.

@@dariostabletopminatures The same to you! It really does work as a sort of meditation, or active resting. It gives your mind something joyful to focus on and gives it a moment of rest from everything making me stressed or anxious.

@dariostabletopminatures I don't know if it will help? Time to paint is usually a few hours before bed. It helps relax you and calms you down before you sleep. That usually helps me.
