I feel that sentiment in regards to competitive painting. About a few weeks ago, I went to a 1 hour speedpainting competition at my local store. There was a solid 21+ people turn out, all had been painting longer than me it seemed. One of the competitors was even one of the major community members for Renegade. I was super nervous and really didn't didn't expect anything of it. At the end it turned out I had won. I got so much positive feedback and it was extremely validating to know that all the models I've been painting since I got into the hobby since a few years ago have really resulting in better painting ability and growth. Your model looked sick and the Vargheist conversion was a great choice!

Thanks for coming to the live taping!!! So much fun. To answer your question, my wife and I sat down and did a thorough look at our finances to determine what amount I’d have to make for us to be able to pay the bills and have enough money for that necessities. From there we got a dollar amount, then I added 25% on top of that as my goal, knowing that things could dip back down in the YT world and we’d still be ok. Once I hit that dollar amount a few months in a row I knew it was real and started planning for the full time transition :)

Great video! Definitely a nice change from all the other Adepticon 'documentaries' (the dry brush section had me cracking up). Regarding something you said about your GD piece and how many hours you spent on it - I'm not going to say anything close to a critique on the piece itself because I think it's f***ing stunning and far beyond anything I can paint - maybe it just goes back to the old adage "it's not just how much time you spend, but how well you spend that time"? On previous TUP episodes, it sounded like you were obsessing over certain things more than others and maybe that was the difference? Who knows... At least you got a commendation which is an incredibly respectful achievement and I can't wait to see what you cook up for the next one!!! Cheers!
