Hello there

[@akumaking1]

Do you happen to have any Necrons laying around?

[@Pay-No-Mind]

PLEASE tell me you didn't really throw that stuff out, it's really painful to see it go to waste when people (myself included) struggle to afford even the basics of this hobby.... 😯😟

GIMME SKELLIES

[@snoox27]

My hubby lost 75% of his warhammer collection two weeks ago when someone firebombed our house. Garage completely gone, our storage area. Very sad. Insurance should be solid but he lost so minis that were 20+ years old.

[@generalmisery]

I love how you actually found use in other hands for most of the stuff. Throwing stuff in the trash that you don't want, but isn't trash is just bad. There are enough people that want it.

[@ThatGuy-eu2vt]

he did throw away a sprue with bits still on it...

[@generalmisery]

@@ThatGuy-eu2vt Why do you have to be that guy...

[@moonkidd5854]

I got into the hobby in March of this year and you were one the first miniature wargaming related youtubers I started watching. I know it hasn't been long but you're still my favorite I've found. I'm glad you're finding success doing what you love. Can't wait to see what the future holds for your channel and to finally order my squidmar brushes!

[@asultan7049]

Hi Squidmar. I would love to see you do another tutorial on eyes but rather than using a bust like you usually do, use a 28mm or 30mm scale tabletop mini. I find the current tutorial on eyes to not be 100% practical for proper tabletop armies.

Weird place to say that, but from experience, the ficus in the storage room is potentially going to die over time due to not getting enough direct light.

[@MrDtedwards]

As someone who's only 2 months into the hobby (plus my 16 year and 21 year old sons) I can only say that I've tried to absorb hours of your content to grow. We have loved watching you paint and describe techniques that we attempt and grow each time! If you need a home in the states for some of those feel free to ship them this way 🤣🤣🤣

[@jakea3950]

Why dont you buy them? Begging is not becoming.

[@MrDtedwards]

@@jakea3950 I'll absolutely buy them, although why you chose to attack me out of the hundreds of other similar comments here is beyond me.

[@lukesball1]

@@jakea3950 It's not begging if he's throwing them out, and calling out someone for begging isn't becoming.

@Jake A we get it your parents buy you anything you need. Get a life and stop trying to be a internet debutant.. “a closed mouth don’t get fed” ~ someone smarter than us.

[@techadeptcrafts]

Great set up! Love that you gave away so many models to clubs and supporters - very cool. We were given a lot of help we our school club first started 21 years ago. Now we often give terrain, boards and minis to new school clubs as they start up.

[@GoobertownHobbies]

That studio is sooo goood!! I love it. Be careful with those cracks in your beautiful table though! I'd lose so many bits :-)

[@AaronVgoat]

Honestly this guy would make a killing if he just signed this stuff and auctioned it all on eBay for one day.

[@bluenine85]

I really hope this stuff got donated somewhere :(

[@ZestayTaco]

@@bluenine85 for real. he could have went to the local game store and said HERE . give one to every customer.

[@itsdarrth]

Love the studio!! Going from 2000+ to 1300+ is probably a huge weight off your shoulders!

[@SquidmarMiniatures]

really is :)

[@bearisthere3233]

If you ever need to find homes for minis, there are some awesome charities like Models for Heroes that are always happy to get donations.

[@justanothercaptain6566]

Really liked seeing the “behind” the scenes with a tour of your studio. That was cool 😎! I like how you’re taking care of your back log by selling them or donating them. I have a drawer in my desk. It’s full. Until I make space in it, no more new models. It how I keep it down. Unfortunately between work, the Regiment and commissions, I haven’t touched it. Oh well! 😀. I would love to see how you actually run your studio over a normal work day. It would be interesting to see what is involved. Thanks again for sharing. Cheers 🍻

[@pommedeter7407]

Bruh its crazy how everyone I see on the internet buys thousands of mini while I'm here buying around 3-5 sets a year and i'm like "yo how the fucc did you get that many stuff"

[@Birdmanesp92]

The secret is credit cards and not painting said minis.

1 start a youtube channel 2 set up a patreon 3 get a shit load of fans 4 u should a make a little money with donations and that. 5 should have enough cash to buy what u want 6 but u probably got a job and no time to build and paint ,make videos ,get camera's do editing and that 7 ur gonna be damn too knackered to keep up the work rate and hours 8 but it was a good idea for u wanting to build a full 10.000pt army oh good luck if u try it

[@americapaschall6522]

Budgeting. I just bought 2000 points of sons of behamet and imerpial knights. All built. Painting them now. Within a month. This is my only hobby though besides casual video games.

[@johnhanley5546]

Looks well... good to see folks getting on! - keep going. Your channel was a great encouragement to me when I was very ill a year and a half ago and I've watched your videos (and the previous ones) ever since - thank you for your help!

[@kylebustin9459]

Dont throw out your bits. Send them to Kitbashers like meeee :D I just spent a bunch on buying random bit boxes off ebay haha.

[@BarokaiRein]

Man your studio is straight up a house my god.

[@Stixanimated2]

The new setup looks great! So organized and well laid out! Love your videos, can’t wait to get into painting my first model.

[@SquidmarMiniatures]

cheers mate

[@anno6969]

I’m doing this now. Feels so good to get rid of all the chaff! Cleaner place to work. Feel like I want to do the hobby again. If you’re in a hobby slump, clean house. You won’t regret it and make some cash 👍🏻👍🏻

[@atmgr82]

I saw at least one space in that office that would look awesome with a @nerdforge mural on it. Now that would be an awesome collaboration!

[@medicapgaming1338]

This is so awe-inspiring. As someone who has been watching your videos and starting to get into painting (40k Primaris Infiltrators and the Command Edition) I must say, I can't wait to allow my collection to become as vast as yours. Thank you for the videos and congratulations on your hard-earned success. I look forward to seeing what's coming in the future!

[@surtrpicks]

Really like how you engage the community and other creators. The support and showing people, like myself, how there are great sources to use for our hobby. Thanks much.

Can't wait for the Manta to get ready. Real happy for anyone who gets any of these.

[@JaymzW]

Congratulations you do a great job of painting tutorials for beginners and experts. The new studio looks great I would do something similar in my new house once I move with the exception of all the lights and streaming gear because I’m not that advanced yet.

The best thing about HeroQuest is Squidmar selling his doubles

[@Wolfways]

I had to throw out loads of miniatures few years ago because I got a wife and kids and I don't know anyone who still plays, and they were just taking up space. I had some 40k armies, all massive Epic armies (including Squats), and Skaven for fantasy. The only figures I kept were my old Harlequins because I'm obsessed with them. Just last week I thought i'd love to buy the new Harlequin figures to paint...and then I saw the prices. Just one troop and a few characters would cost me about half a years savings! There's no way I can justify paying that :( I remember when Terminators were £3 each...

[@Jesentra]

You almost committed a murder with this one, Squidmar. Answering a stack of $100 bills in the SquareSpace spotlight made me choke on my sandwich. Love your set up!

[@Deadpool_collector247]

Over the space of 2 years, I've gone from owning/using a paint tray/organizer on my lap to now having hundreds of paints & a specially built spray shed with 3D printers and all sorts of gizmos & gadgets (still no room for dioramas or a proper gaming table tho XD). It's too easy to get lost in the world of miniatures

[@Epsilon-5]

Honestly I would love to get thousands of warhammer minis but GWs prices are expensive to say the least but it’s great to see your minis finally painted and added to your army though

[@mytabletopstandard1972]

I don't know if you have thrift stores or other organizations where you may donate some of the items you don't want, need, or have time to sell/fix yourself, but perhaps you may look into it before ultimately tossing something that still works or may be salvageable in the bin.

Nice video, really hope you didn't trash a lot of that stuff. I've kind of stopped played GW games, but alot of their guns, bitz and things work great for a game called Gaslands, and it's absolutely captured my heart this year. Plus the miniatures start as Hotwheels and Matchbox cars.
