After hearing Dave say "titanium white" my ASMR quest is finally complete 🤣

The way in which you are able to be both confident in your own abilities whilst being humble enough to see and be intrigued with the craft of others remains fascinating to me. This theme of balance in confidence is so essential and beautiful not just in your videos, but in your relationship with the artform of woodblock printmaking itself as well. It is one of many things that makes you such a unique and interesting creator on this platform, and I hope we will be able to enjoy your content for many years to come

Love the MYST sweatshirt!

Is that a sweater for the Windows 95 CD ROM based game, Myst? If so, holy hell, yes

Dave with the low-key MYST pullover. I love this man.

That Myst jumper is tight!

Love the videos and the interviews with the ladies. I have been with you since around 1996-97, with dial-up internet. LOL..It's been an incredible journey watching your story, your personal progress, your growth as a carver, printer, designer, video producer....all I can say David is "well-done sir". You have put in the hard work and reaping your just rewards. Continued success for your and your crew.

I have known chaos most of my life. You’re focused precision and love of your art mixed with the practical simplicity is very peaceful to me. Thank you.

Feels weird that I watched this voiceover recorded live so I already know what’s coming! Super interesting video, as always Dave

Myst - the game? Yet another reason to appreciate David Bull.

Ohh I can't imagine a video about woodblock printing without your narration Dave! It all goes together so well!! Much love to you and your team!! 💗💗💗

Your sweater makes me want a woodblock series based on Myst.

Your voice and disposition are so beautiful. I love the way you're confident yet soft-spoken, as a true master, and watching the process unfold is very relaxing. Thank you ❤️

It's even more impressive on multiple viewings. The narration filled me in on things that completely went over my head. Thank you all at Mokuhankan.

I fear one day I'll break my phone by smashing the like button when a David video shows up

Thank you, Dave! Always thrilled for a new video!

I love to draw while listening to Dave's voice 🙂 i really respect Dave and his life style.

Wow what a terrific idea to show these two processes uninterrupted! So many questions came to mind this time: 1. You mention surprise at Suga-san's method and movement during the editing process. But I would've assumed that you trained her? So did she have previous experience in this field that she brings to your shop, or is her workflow a result of "tribal" knowledge passed on from your other printers? 2. How do you communicate to the printers the proper amounts of pigment to use? The proofing stage seems to stumble into the desired colors through extemporaneous mixing. Is there a sort of recipe that you remember as you go, that you can thus pass on to them? 3. Since the printers all use slightly different tools and are obviously left to develop their own workflow, does the end result bear a kind of fingerprint that you can spot? Can your trained eye tell who printed what, if they were displayed side by side? 4. The modern touch of wrapping your brush with a rubber band, and the conversation with the older printer about the match labels, got me thinking: Do you see yourself more as a preservationist of a bygone art form, or as a craftsman of the modern era? And subsequently, do you classify your new works differently from traditional ones? Do those innovations let your works stand as a new era of this art form? Thanks again for this very engrossing video! And so nice to see a familiar face at the end!

I love seeing you interact with your friends and coworkers. You can tell there is a lot of fun and love in your studio.

Been watching your channel for years. It’s still magic what you do. I understand it intellectually but I still can’t fathom it. What a gift!

I still can’t believe how little color it is used ! And such a big beautiful result. I had nothing to do with this craft until you tube made me watch one of your videos one year ago. What a great find !

This is so calming. As an artist I find it fascinating also. It's always nice to see someone do what they love in their heart.

Always a delight to watch your videos - Shoutout for the Myst sweater!

When I found David a year ago, in a desperate attempt to find a relaxing video to help me sleep, I never thought I'd be so enamored with the world of woodblock prints and Japanese art in general. I love David's mix of knowledge and unending curiosity for the craft. Watching a true craftsman at work is something I'll eternally appreciate.

I loved the interview at the end. It's a pleasure to watch you guys work.

Always happy to see your videos. I also appreciate that you left the submission link open for Nekohakkei, I know my designs weren't very good, but I had a blast coming up with my sketches. Thanks, Dave.

I am always impressed with how easy you all make it look to make such a precise and finely crafted work of art.

A true delight, can't wait to get this series. I still have many unopened packages from your shop. When I feel a need, I open one and enjoy the four prints inside.

Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful and mysterious art. Your channel is a true gem

It is such a joy to hear your passion and excitement for the work you do. I loved the interview and while I know most of your employees are a bit camara shy, I would love to see more interviews in the future.

Obviously, another great video. Love seeing what Suga-san thinks about everything, it’s great seeing her energy and how she approaches these problems! Hope you can talk to more of your staff if they’re willing! Much love from California 💛

A Myst sweatshirt - David just keeps getting cooler every video. Love your videos, David!

Amazing. Thank you and the team for compiling this.

Always lovely to hear from you David.

The level of craftsmanship is astonishing, as always!

Happy to see Dave to upload a new video!

Very happy to get a new, 1hour video!! Thanks Dave.

Thank you so much for sharing this. It gives joy to my heart.

dave must be the coolest person in the world. always thrilled by new videos in the channel!

Thank you for another great video. Despite all the recent events in the world, I'm not giving up on visiting your shop one day, and each one of these videos reignites my determination..

The fluency of your Japanese is amazing! Great channel ! ❤️ 🇨🇦 🇯🇵❤️

always a pleasure to watch you before work!

I only saw the “no narration” one at first and was horrified. What a relief this is 😃

Never been as happy to get a KZfaq notification - always excellent!

I love watching your videos. It's neat and interesting to learn about and it's new to me. Keep up the amazing work and I wish you and your fellows a good evening.

What a remarkable talent to have? It’s absolutely fascinating and the results are brilliant.

Wonderful video yet again, I enjoyed it immensely!

I really prefer the real time approach. I admire the handywork of the printer and relax with those videos so thank you for reediting this. Best wishes for health and happyness to you and the whole crew at your workshop from Germany

So cute and cozy! Beautiful art process but also a very calming scene

Great stuff Dave!!! JUST ABSOLUTELY SUPERLATIVE STUFF good sir!!

48:49 TITANIUM HWHITE! Finally the crossover we've all been craving.

Amazing work as always!

Thanks Dave, another great video.

I dunno why but this has the feel of David Attenborough about it. Always a good day when Mr Bull uploads.

This is so awesome to watch.

Beautiful. This is true art.

I remember being 9 years old and playing the original MYST game on the family Windows PC back in the 90’s. It blew my mind! That game was a masterpiece in CGI artwork.

Oh man. I've been in a rabbit hole lately researching japanese woodblock prints and artists and I'm so delighted to find this video. I don't know this craft so I've been doing my best to imitate the style with watercolor, which is a completely different feeling all together. But seeing this process really opened my eyes. I hope I can get into it someday.

Great work Dave and Super Sun.

Yaaay! Finally something new from you guys. Missed you already. And, David? You're rocking the Merlin beard.

my favorite stuff, love the video mr bull!!

This video is a gift

Such a delicat and precise work art!

so lovely and delicate! i was late to the first round of subscriptions, but hopefully in the future i can order the year’s set. they are so small and beautiful! a stampbook would be good to keep them in, but i think a trading card folder might work as well

Love your work.

Sweet MYST Sweater!!!

19:51 I can almost hear the lines of thoughts here. "Where's that block... nope... nope... wait..." *Flips block around.* "Hm!"

So stoked to see a new David Bull video up Edit: the beard is looking as wizardly as ever

As a Japanese speaker, I really enjoyed the interview at the end!

Wow 156k subscribers these days! Excellent work Dave

A new hour long Dave Bull video! It's a good day amigos!

Fantastic.

You are a treasure Dave. Hope to one day visit the Asakusa shop :)

New video let’s Goooooooooooo

I don’t know why I didn’t get a notification for this one but I’m looking forward to almost an hour of print making.

Thank you Dave! I always enjoy your videos. I’m curious if you e ever made a video in more detail about decide how many color blocks are needed and how to decide what colors to overlay to get the final result.?

Dave, your Myst sweatshirt brings this video to the next level

That sweatshirt is kickass.

I would love a set of hanafuda with this sort of design on it! I'm sure I'm not the only one either

Yo Dave! Another video? You're spoiling us.

Suddenly, I very much want Mokuhankan MYST prints :)

God damn I love you and all your videos

As always, I enjoy the videos. Perhaps, editing a video with the carving process from the Twitch streams could be a companion video to this one.

David! My man with the Myst jumper!

Proper respect for that MYST sweatshirt!

Just magic

fell asleep to smoking asmr, woke up to this gem

What a wonderfull Craft....

Mind-blowing as always. Everytime I watch another video of yours I feel a serious urge to create something with my hands. Time to get creative

And what a delight it was......

very epic.

Definitely a feature, not a bug.

This is gonna end up if a few unintentional asmr playlists.

Great video as always. I was wondering what you end up doing with most of the proof prints? Do they go in the trash, give them to friends, end up as part of the subscription?

Smart girl, you can see hard work in her shoulders

Do we have a Davids Choice coming out soon?? Hoping all is well!

I love MYST!

I want to find a job like this that I'm capable of doing. It seems peaceful, enjoyable, passionate.

Honestly, the first thing I learned is that you haven't been kneeling at this low desk all this time. I had no idea how you kept that up for a whole work session, but now I can see you're sitting on a raised floor. I didn't realize that how this was all set up.

Nice
