One thing you'll realize with your CZcams channel is that its impossible so predict which of your videos will "blow up" in terms of views! A labour of love project will often tank and then some off-hand video will get 100k. Keep up the grest work Clayton!
Hey Evan. Yeah, it’s a strange beast isn’t it?! Thanks again for being part of this community. I appreciate you joining in. Thanks mate ☝️🙏💪
Clayton I want to say thank you !!! Absolutely enjoy every video and project you share . Happy New Year looking forward to Workbench Hobbies in 2024!
Thanks Frank. Happy new year and thank you for your kind words 🙏💪😎
Love the channel. My request for 2024 would be something in depth on modulation and weathering with oils 😊
Hey there! Thanks for joining in and thanks for your kind words. Your suggestions have been noted 🙏💪😎🍺☝️
Love the videos and your general attitude, great way of teaching and encouragement. Looking forward to what you do next.
Thank you so much. Very kind. It’s appreciated 🙏🍻
Really refreshing to see a fellow aussie in the armour modelling space, been subbed for a little bit and your vids are good and informatove
That’s awesome. Glad to have you as part of this community 🍺☝️
Great builds and a great year for you. Thank you for the call out and cant wait to see what you do this year. Have a great year my friend.
Thanks to you Grant. My time on the pod was one of the highlights of my year. Hopefully we can meet in person one day 🤩😎🙏☝️
Found your channel after listening to your episode on the plastic posse podcast. I hope you continue making videos because your passion for the hobby is infectious. Weekly videos are hard I’m sure so don’t be afraid to space them out like night shift started doing. Looking forward to your 2024 videos!
That’s awesome. Thanks so much for joining in. It’s such a great hobby with so many great people isn’t it?! And thanks for addressing the ‘weekly video thing. I’m committing to one every two weeks at this stage…but won’t beat myself up if that doesn’t happen….maybe 😉
Thanks for connecting ☝️🙏
Thanks for the advice.
Hi Daniel, thank you I am glad people are finding value with these tip 🤝
great builds last year and looing forward to following through this year :)
Terrific news. Thanks so much 🙏
As a renewed modeller, appreciate all the tips on improving my skills after ~30 years!
Welcome back to the greatest hobby in the world and thank you for joining in to the community!
Great to see you back on deck for 2024 Clayton! I have to say that I am looking forward to your content this year. Unfortunately, work commitments have kept me away from my bench for over a month, so I am keen to catch up on a few of my unfinished projects. I particularly enjoyed your Hetzer build last year, and you encouraged me to have a go at an interior build, despite my misgivings, and I have to say I found it a great experience ( I have to confess that I cheated a bit by building the Takom ‘Burgpanther’ (sic)), and well worth the effort.
Your 3 Tips as noted in this video are also spot on, and I will try them out moving forward. Hope to see a lot of content from you this year. Cheers for now mate!
Thanks for your support Gary! Looking forward to hearing when you make it back to the bench. I love hearing I’ve helped inspire people to try something new or push through an obstacle. Thanks for sharing ☝️☝️🍻
Hi Clayton ... I would like to thank you for the great and very well made and edited content you have shown on your channel. I absolutely adore your comparison video "Black basing vs. pre-shading" ... I wish you luck and success for your upcoming projects in 2024 😊👍 a big hug, cheers Markus
Thank you so much Markus. Your encouragement and enthusiasm for this hobby is what keeps me going.
Great video mate, and congrats on such a successful year! Your podcast sessions with OTB and PPP were both really informative and a lot of fun, and your 3 tips here pretty much sum up my mantra for the hobby. Try something new and improve a bit with each build, “embrace the suck” and push through learning from my mistakes, and share what I do and engage with other styrenoholics. Looking forward to another year of content mate, best wishes.
Thanks so much for your comments. Glad you enjoyed and practice the ‘tips’ 👍🙏🍻☝️
Thanks for a great year Clayton! Very fortuitously for me, I got back into the hobby right when you dropped the Panzer 38(t) vids. I find you very inspiring and your explanations are always very clear. The vids have great production, are very slick and excellently paced. Love the humour as well. What ever you present to us I'll watch but I've quietly got my fingers crossed for a beastie with wings!! Here's to another great year of modelling!!
Thanks buddy. It’s guys like you that keep me going. So great to connect in Canberra and I promise I’ll give you some wings at some stage this year 💪💪🇦🇺
I just want to say thank you Clayton, I’ve heard you a couple of times on OTB talk about the effort you’re going to with this channel and know from my own experience (with a Photoshop CZcams page), how demanding it can be. You put out a great product and if you don’t mind me saying, I love the little clips you put in during editing! Happy new year and I look forward to more builds from you.
Thanks so much 🙏 I do have fun with those clips so it’s always nice to hear people seem to be enjoying them.
Appreciate your comments 🍻☝️🙏
Hi Clayton, I just finished watching your year 2023 in review video and found it very informative and the models you built and presented are awesome! Thanks for the tips and I look forward to watching your videos through the year. Take care. 😊
So glad to have you as part of the community here. Thanks for connecting Gary 🙏
@@workbenchhobbies4316 Thank you Clayton.
Tip number 1 is definitely my top goal i would like to accomplish. i feel like I'm on the outside of a fish tank tapping on the glass sometimes. I don't have any modelers i know on a personal level yet. Hope to dive into a few forums and become active on the fb groups I'm a part of.
That is great to hear - community is so important. Connect and communicate and find a group that works for you. Thank you for joining in
Nice video and recap mate! And each time we 'fail' a model, it's one step closer to mastering the skill being practiced.
And sometimes the failure is in the design of the kit....
(Looking at you weasel....)
Keep on keeping on!
Thanks Jamie. And thanks for sharing the Facebook post. Your support is truly appreciated 🙏🍻
Thanks for sharing this video and your talents !✌🏻🇨🇦✌🏻
Oh too kind James, thank you for your kind words and for joining in 🍀
All good points. Sadly, I have one of those shelves with way too many kits on it that are nearly done.
🫣😆 we all have a shelf like that. How about you make an effort to finish just one this year? What’s the worst that can happen? 💪☝️🍀🍺
Nice one Clayton, look forward to 2024 content what ever it maybe. And who knows on the cricket this year 😂
😆 thanks Paul. Australia playing the West indies next week here…so that shouldn’t pose too many problems 😉😎
I love all the work you have made in 2023,and can’t wait to see your plans come to reality.I feel the same on my first videos,and the videos i am still making,i am learning slowly and getting used to editing,changing my set up to what I think looks better,and I think i have achieved it.I have a little request for this year,maybe a kv-1 or kv-2 as i feel Like you could do a great job with them and i am about to begin one soon!
Oh! I love Russian armour. Have noted and will see where I can sneak that in. Appreciate you joining in. Thanks so much 🙏
Thanks for all your efforts Clayton. Your videos are superbly edified and very informative... and have cost me a lot of money 😂
Cost you money or helped you invest wisely? 🤪 Glad to have you as part of the community 😉☝️🙏
I like the way you think 😉. Cheers mate.
I’ve loved seeing your channel grow and are definitely some of my go to model videos for tips! And for my 2024 in modeling I’ve started to make my own model channel!
How exciting. It’s a lot of work but it’s a lot of fun as well. Thanks for your support and good luck with the channel 🍀
Thanks!
Love your work so far! Also it's interesting how a little detail in your video warmed up my heart. When you arrived to the OTB studio, there's a big monitor in the background and on it, a photo of a very famous place in our country, not far from where I live :) I know, purely coincidental and probably just a screensaver but nonetheless.
Nice! I need to go back and look now! Thanks for connecting 🍻🇦🇺
Great video, I love your channel….. Great content.
I couldn’t do it without your support, so thanks to you 🙏🍺
Really enjoy the channel after only discovering it about a month ago. Would a Channel group build work as an idea for 2024 ? Keep up the good work. Craig
Hey Craig. So pleased you’ve found me. Thank you for connecting. A Group build could work for sure! Let me have a think about how that could work. Have noted in the ‘ideas’ book 😄😎🍻💪
