Overcoming Fear: Entering a Miniature Painting Contest

[@MiniatureHobbyist]

If you know of any painting competitions please let me know, especially any in the south of the UK 🙂

[@JoeSikorra-pb2tc]

I really enjoy your videos, as I’m new to mini painting myself. Question: what is that glitter you use for the gold coins?

[@derekgarcia3069]

Looks great! Enjoy the competition!!

[@DJTXD123]

Looks really cool, only criticism is i wouldve made the horns / tongue / shoulders and nails more colourful to make them stand out more

[@Lolliegeethatsme]

This looks so great! The gold was a perfect touch.

[@nickdavis5420]

Bigger base was definitely the way to go !

[@lordsmyty]

Looks great, the gold was a nice touch. All them hours of painting you've been putting in 🎉

[@silvermoment1679]

Good luck nice touch adding the glitter just shows your having fun doing something you enjoy

[@HowleRWolF01]

Love the no nonsense approach in your videos, and the very important message....paint for yourself!...keep it up 😎

[@MiniatureHobbyist]

Thank you so much, yup this hobby is all about having fun 😊

[@sgtsol7934]

I've been watching your vids for a while now. I appreciate you taking the time and sharing with the rest of us. I get enjoyment from watching you paint. I get the itch to go paint something as well. Moving everything to a new office space now, so will soon be able to print some minis and give it a try. Thanks again, cheers to you sir!

[@grlmgor]

Very nicely done.

[@dirigoallagash3464]

An oil wash and highlight and that would really pop. Looks good nonetheless.

[@Kiddarri1729]

best of luck in the competition, i hope you pull off a win but the biggest win is the fact that you tookk the chance to enter, and that you'll come way with new insights and ideas on how to be a better painter

[@Grohtezk]

[@diyfireking]

[@TheRagenCagen]

Very rare to see someone enjoying what they’re doing as much as you are. Aspire to being the same

[@JohnHensman-f1q]

Great stuff. I enjoyed watching you paint this larger model. I am so pleased for you that you are able to move to a bigger place and expand your hobbying potential.

[@MiniatureHobbyist]

Thank you, I cant wait to get the room organised and then do a studio tour, well room tour lol 😊

[@NB-568]

It's a studio! Looking forward to more videos!

[@MiniatureHobbyist]

haha, cheers, yes it is 😊

[@Will-db5el]

Blows my mind what you manage to achieve with speedpaint, great job.

[@MiniatureHobbyist]

It blows mine too, it takes a no hoper and makes them a reasonable painter lol 😊

[@halfheard1]

where did you get your shelving units from?

[@theromeog]

loving the gold coin base!!! Keep up the grind! Videos are awesome and inspirational

[@MiniatureHobbyist]

Cheers, once Im in my studio and have everything set up all the time then lots more videos coming lol 😊

[@capnskustomworks]

That looks sweet!!! The wash makes quite a bold difference! Have ye tried any tests of the wash over the glitter coins, I’d wonder what kind of effect that might have?

[@mortenstage2950]

Looks great. The column where is that from?

[@MarkLewis...]

Looks great. Hope you update us how you did? How many entries? etc.

[@MiniatureHobbyist]

Cheers, I think it runs until sometime in October, so a long wait but cant wait to start seeing what the others do 😊

[@adioni4749]

Looks awesome! Question: what's the name of that tool you used to push the green stuff into the gap? Do you have a link for it?

[@greyshadedminis]

That's a winner awesome video the glitter gold is fantastic

[@MiniatureHobbyist]

Cheers, yeah the glittering gold does help sell the scene 😊

[@greyshadedminis]

@@MiniatureHobbyist definitely dose mate

[@jesperriget]

Very nice video. Where can I find the competition and see the competitors?

[@michaels8940]

It actually looks airbrushed, very nice. Idk if you'll win but it would definitely deserve an honorable mention

[@MiniatureHobbyist]

Thank you so much, Im just excited to enter and want to find more to enter lol 😊

[@thrrax]

The irony of youtubers getting paints from every manufacturer, in hope that their viewers will buy these new paints, and the vast majority of viewers still sticking to their old tested paints.

[@NB-568]

You were saying you wanted to do a comp!!

[@MiniatureHobbyist]

I do indeed 😊

[@oscarlopeztorres6842]

Woow

[@MiniatureHobbyist]

Thank you 😊

[@harpnbass]

I've been really enjoying your videos. As a beginner to the hobby I have learned so much from you. Most importantly, not to be afraid to scew up (ha ha)! Good luck with the competition!
