[@richieThach]

Your ability to keep such a straight face and constant silence while building a model is very impressive

[@notbasilcount1059]

If it were me painting, there would be a helluva lot more swearing

[@TheWaggishAmerican]

@KozmoCossak While painting? That is a trick!

[@Chris-qc3qb]

I would because I work in garage and it’s like a sweat shop and them fans don’t do any thing

[@nah1265]

If it was me there would be a lot of music

[@KrakenBattlebots]

If it was me, there would be sweat everywhere from focusing

[@justinhealey2408]

Lol me too just was gotta take a break

[@rayannadeem6048]

The joy of modeling

[@JustcallmeDedo]

You can count on me using this to fall asleep from now on

[@Hebrewhammer305]

Something about brush painting that is relaxing

[@beckmann3624]

me: ha ha he's doing a parody Quick Kits: That's where your wrong kido's

[@OrdinaryJack1912]

You're so chill compared to me. My painting sessions include about 40% dropping the brush, and knocking pots over. Then accidentally painting an area I didn't want to and then the inevitable panicking to get a bit of tissue or something to wipe as much off, realising I hadn't brought such materials with me and having to run into the next room to get some.

[@Leviwalker617]

Lol, same happens to me quite often

[@tomohisa3049]

He's falling into the void

[@muchasgracias6976]

This is like an insight into the way Owen actually paints his models when he isn't making a video. Nice!

[@ModelMinutes]

I like the multiple camera angles

[@bonbon3215]

Seeing acrylic brush painting in real time is great. Would love to see more.

[@robertlooper135]

I cant believe that was 5 minutes, it was so enjoyable and calming to watch the time just flew by. Love your channel man

[@cesarignjas]

Nice to have you back doing videos, I like this “no words” style. I have started doing some video build for KZbin but I don’t like to speak in my videos. Your video is a inspiration, thanks for that.

[@barnabyg6808]

Wow that was actually so relaxing not gonna lie!

[@quickkits]

Aw I'm glad you found it relaxing!

[@barnabyg6808]

Quick Kits you should make more of these!

[@brokenplanet7948]

Nice simple video 👍. Picture quality and editing is good too 😎

[@ray-vr]

Funny to see actual painting without music but real sound :) Good luck with your modeling!

[@mackenziebrock8137]

Fell asleep after 30 seconds

[@Z3kyTw0]

great new idea man! cash in on that ASMR

[@averagecanadianguy1966]

I’m not usually a fan of ASMR but this.... this is an exception

[@noormohamad1]

Fairly new to this. I have been struggling with masking 1/72 scale aircraft canopies so tried your method of brush painting, and scraping away excess. It has worked out well.for me so far, even if i have to do touchups. Huge time saver.

[@J00dy11]

And the downward spiral begins 😂 (but srsly owen you do what ever floats your bismark as long as your enjoying making videos thats all that matters)

[@quickkits]

Hahaha amazing 😂 thanks for the comment dude :D

[@micahtritscher951]

Damn I'm sure u hit him where it hurts

[@eviloverlordsean]

@@micahtritscher951 "Bismark build... bad"

[@SWNerd]

1. I listen to either Sabaton or Bajofondo while painting 2. So before adding a new layer the paint needs to dry? 3. On a large plane surface I used a round brush is that fine? 4. While painting my spitfire it created some weird brush strokes how did that happen

[@eviloverlordsean]

Yay, Sabaton!

[@mmatteolerario]

I listen to Sabaton too when I do a scale model hahah

[@TheWaggishAmerican]

I actually really like this- double points that you didn't try and wisper and let the brush make the noise.

[@markshellard5894]

Quietist model build ever !

[@lipp1992]

make a longer one of this, nearly put me to sleep.

[@hcurtis05]

This is awesome

[@quickkits]

I'm pleased you enjoyed it, thought I'd do something a lil wild haha

[@brew_up8051]

Liking the change of styles. Some kit building ASMR would be good.

[@iannicholls7476]

I’ve not seen this one before Owen. You’ve highlighted one of the real pleasures of modelling. Brush painting is so quite and relaxing compared to the faff of an airbrush.

[@freemanedwards5663]

Damn this is actually really relaxing

[@the91419]

Excellent! Better as an ASMR channel!

[@SenoEricKrueger]

Wow this is new hahah! More please

[@markhayward6160]

More!

[@Bruh-uj2bh]

Great vid!! Keep it up

[@joshuafraser4838]

I have humbrol 159 enamel, does this still work if I use 1 part water 7 part paint

[@johannesgallein308]

Ofc not

[@joshuafraser4838]

Mando yeah sorry, o was new to modelling then :/

[@martinbriedl97]

I really enjoyed this Video especialy that it was realtime only thing missing is your wonderful voice ☺

[@Zillazaur]

I need more of this

[@jaimerote3497]

I enjoyed it, very cool video, do more like this, please

[@martyryan2706]

Well I enjoyed it!

[@ondrejsercl8112]

Is that ASMR? Hey i hate asmr but this is the true original content😂😂😂

[@allhaillordtachanka1957]

How do you stay so calm and not all OCD like me?

[@tomroland2315]

Do you have problems trying to brush paint using white acrylics? I've tried different brands of paint and various techniques but can never get a good result. I've tried flow improvers and thin coats too. Any suggestions?

[@farrelfzeta6908]

This is actually pretty good !!

[@mjrgamer6482]

Can you do a video on how to make a scale model without any extra tools? Just the tools you get in the kit and a scissor and knife maybe(stuff everyone has at home)

[@quickkits]

My 'Scale Modelling for Beginners' video ( kzbin.info/www/bejne/aqK7eZ2sjr6grdk ) is done using really basic tools. I hope you enjoy it! I should be making another one similar to it soon :)

[@Charlie-de7xu]

Great video!

[@historyincorporated392]

Great job

[@theelitexgamer27]

Can we now have an asmr with you using an airbrush? 😂😂

[@fishnchips5826]

Compressor be like: MMMMMMM

[@justinhealey2408]

Is it wrong to panel line without a gloss overcoat first ive done it before and after with no problems

[@theroyalirishregiment1458]

Me:painting model. Model:wings fall off

[@kvetamay1029]

that was bretty good. as an early ASMR connaisseur(i'd like to think that of myself, at least) the sharp noises hinder the asmr: hitting hard surfaces together - paint bottle against the table, dragging of the wet pallet across the table, putting the model on the table, clicking, grinding and scratching. i guess sharp are produced by a sensitive microphone. movements that evoke asmr are deliberate, unwavering, but a bit slower than yours. as if you could feel that the person who does them is in the zone, relaxed and has only that process on his mind.

[@quickkits]

That's very fair, I don't listen to ASMR myself so don't really know these thinks. Thank you for your comment!

[@lachlantank6121]

Hey Owen.I love your vids. Could you please make a model on the f4 phantom II as I would love to see how you go with the modern ejection seats and weathering.

[@arandomyoutuber6634]

how did we go from normal model videos TO ASMR?!

[@j.kearney484]

A surprise, but a welcome one to be sure

[@valborchardt3596]

Oh thank you Owen. Take care

[@quickkits]

You're welcome, you take care too ❤️

[@tomoldaker1268]

Where does he get small acrylic pots of paint

[@martingonzales3957]

hi owen watch all your tips fantastic could you give me some tips how to start air brushing

[@johannesgallein308]

No

[@thesidingshow4656]

That was very interesting and was it raining in the background ?

[@quickkits]

Nah I think my mic is just crap haha

[@thesidingshow4656]

Quick Kits don’t worry about it it was actually really cool

[@nathancoghill9802]

Do more pls

[@autisticgamer9917]

Its nice to see behind the scenes at the moment im building a tamiya honda nsr 500 and ive found that brushing tamiya acrylic works just as well as airfix paint if not better , you also have more of it but the only downside is having to wear a mask or ill be inhaling fumes that oddly smells like apples

[@eviloverlordsean]

An aside: it looks like you used a thin wash on the Crommie before starting layering on paint, correct?

[@quickkits]

It wasn't intended to be a wash it was just the first layer of paint was quite thin

[@johnkelley9877]

Good tutorial. I actually like you doing the voice over.

[@Ghostrider-lm9en]

If you’re switching to acrylics how do you do multiple coats? when I paint, one coat of acrylic is usually enough and more coats just clump up how do I make my coats more thin?

[@normiukkeli3739]

What brand of paint are you using?

[@Ghostrider-lm9en]

I am using tamiya brand acrylics

[@normiukkeli3739]

@@Ghostrider-lm9en tamiya acrylics are primarily for airbrushing but they are good for brushpainting too. For small details dont thin the paint at all and paint one coat. For large areas thin the paint 2 parts paint to 1 part thinner, DO NOT THIN TAMIYA PAINTS WITH WATER use tamiya X20-A thinner or isopropanol alchohol. Paint atleast 2 thin layers and let it dry atleast an hour, preferably overnight before another coat.

[@Ghostrider-lm9en]

@Normi Ukkeli alright thanks for the help 🙂

[@tomroland2315]

Do you find using acrylics hard on your brushes?

[@quickkits]

Nah, the gold taklon bristles are fine with acrylics

[@conoredwards723]

When you do American planes with silver metal is that acrylic paint too or would you use enamels then ?

[@goosefpv]

You can use both, the choice between acrylic and enamel is totally up to the modeller, some people use acrylic for interior parts and enamel for exterior and some just use acrylics for everything or vice versa. The main difference between both is the drying time smell and longevity. Enamel takes about 12-24h to be completely dry, they have quite a strong smell which means you should ventilate the room but the paint lasts for way longer and is more resistant to scratches and such. Acrylics however, take seconds to be dry to touch, they do not smell but they are more prone to scratching. Hope this helped.

[@cjraven2399]

Great vid! There’s just one thing though, I like it better when you talk and say what your doing😊

[@egehk7631]

i listened u2 this is where you can reach me know and your my favourite KZbinr no one does brush but you do thanks a lot

[@justinhealey2408]

I still havnt gotten an airbrush kit and I probably won't unfortunately but hey🤷

Are you going to Telford in a few weeks as I would love to meet you

Hey Owen you should do the Airfix 1/72 scale Wellington Love your videos 👍

[@quickkits]

Thanks for the kit suggestion! And I'm glad you're enjoying the videos :)

[@MrBruni005]

Hey Owen, haven't heard from me in a while huh? But just wanted to say keep up the good work on your channel, I found this oddly satisfying. Hope you're okay? 👍

[@hashbiasshate8904]

What paint to water ratio is this? Im dying to know pls!!!

[@quickkits]

About 1 part water to 6 parts paint - that's only a rough guide as every paint manufacturer and even each pot of paint, depending on its age and batch, will have a different consistency

[@hashbiasshate8904]

@@quickkits thx i just feel like my revell acrylics are too thick

[@martinfojtasek5461]

So you let the acrylics to dry for 2 hours? I give them like 15-30 minutes... oops But I still get decent finish though... might depend on the brand of paint. Anyways, great video, not many of these on KZbin :)

[@quickkits]

Yeah that's entirely possible, I say 2 hours because it's safe for any brand then. If it works for you, keep it up dude :)

[@ToMeTheFool]

How many Cromwells does this man have????

[@DrewberryHobbies]

Not bad thoe i thin i like his of my air brush when im working on paint thoe hand paint with brush can be very zen and relaxing to.

[@eviloverlordsean]

Owen: personally, I think you got so much hate mail for the house music on the Pzkw IV build and paint videos, you decided to show up the haters with a Zen paint vid. But that's just me. And aren't you still at University? where the hell are you getting the time for this stuff?

[@quickkits]

That's very kind haha! Nah I graduated in July :)

[@eviloverlordsean]

@@quickkits Congrats! I'm sure you majored in quantum mechanics or physical chemistry given your attention to detail - all the best from your fans

I use an airbrush it would just sound like air.

You can turn on "subtitles/captions/CC" for in-depth commentary, enjoy ;)

[@lclbowling5575]

Take moment to take in that Owen left us for awhile to give us an update, the again and when he comes back, one of his first videos after coming back is literally painting a model for ASMR. What has this channel come to? (This is obviously a joke)

[@quickkits]

I've sniffed too much glue (I'm joking) (Also don't sniff glue people)

[@mattityahu4318]

Very nice, because hearing-impaired people can now follow your instructions too. I can hear, but i enjoy the silence.
