    On the topic of the ego, and "validation". I make comics (under a nom de plume) and once became demotivated by a lack of comments. But now and then someone pops up out of the blue, once, and says, "I just love the quality of your images, your hard work really shows. Can't wait for more." and, "And i love your works. I find them incredibly well done and really cool to watch." etc. And then you never hear from them again. I also get regular commenters, but the point is, just because you don't get feedback does not mean people do not love what you do. Note down the positive comments, as they can be rather motivating, especially as we are oft too fast to forget praise. And, every sale is a sincere compliment, despite no comments, no likes. I get many more sales than comments! So, on social media a lack of likes, a lack of feedback, does not mean that people out there do not love what you do. Also, often people who are terrible get loads of comments. And that's great too, as even terrible stuff is enjoyed. Fortunately for me, I'm lazy, so need a little pressure to get me to make stuff. It's harder to burn out when you need motivation hehehe. But, I do get anxious if I'm not creating something sooner or later, which could be down to autism, more than anything. The REAL stresses of my life were when I was working for corporations & the public sector. Brilliant experiences, but stressful. The worst tragedy of social media is, fewer people are having kids, families, due to internet addiction. That's tragic. Tons of regret, later if life, if you miss out.

I am thinking about starting a UA-cam channel. Is it worth it? I print and make statues of superheroes. I really love doing it. But I will have to learn to edit videos and start at the very beginning. But yes Is it worth it?

    Mate , I know it's a bit late night w , but that respirator is not rated for isocyanates, they are absorbed through skin and eyes , i contacted 3M and they say a full enclosed air fed hood is required, as well as a full body suit as isocyanates can remain on clothes and still be spread around , I wonder how polyurethane clear would go over chrome , I am obsessed with chrome paints hoping to find a true durable chrome, I think your helmet turned out very nice!

    Love your energy and humour and that you actually offer great advice. QUESTION, I printed my first figurine - Fry from Futurama, taking onboard you suggestions. I used 10% Support Density and Lines as the pattern. Unfortunately, lines were no good though easy to remove. They wobbled side to side for his hands and arms - no lateral stiffness, and the arms failed. The hands are about 75mm above the build plate. Would Triangle pattern be appropriate for this situation?

  • @JC-ve4zm

    I know youve made this 2 years but for anyone reading this. You need WAY more protection that she uses for this clearcoat. Its wildly toxic. Completely banned from being sprayed outside of a sealed booth in the UK, crystals in your lungs, never leaves your body type of toxic. Honest to god, you should have a full body, forced air suit to spray this stuff but if youre a hobbyist. Thats not reasonable. Dont spray this in your garage though. Your air for your furnace pulls from the garage and you will have those toxic fumes in your house. At Minimum. You need all your skin covered and have a PROPER full mask respirator with the filters that are meant for 2k. This stuff doesnt just dry on your skin. It absorbs into your skin, into your blood and never leaves your body. Your kidneys dont process isocyanates.

    I actually used these methods for work related purposes, we have gotten these hard hats that use a over the eyes plastic visor and we only got the clear ones(we work outdoors) and i have an issue wearing my sunglasses underneath them so i turned to youtube on tinting said plastic visor and found this. Upon doing so i was actually very successful and im now offering my co workers dyed visors for their hard hats as well. But i would like to add that using a black dye to tint the visors with a color and then chroming the back does not work too well especially in terms of visibility. But nonetheless this method does serve a practical use as well
