I am so glad you are still around. Glad to see you again.
Never left, just been working on getting the Patreon Channel up and running.
As someone who struggles with perfectionism and fear of failure this video helps a lot. Thank you for your words and insight. 👍
I think 'Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance' has morphed into 'Zen and the Art of Model Making'!
Yes! I keep thinking the same thing. I mentioned something similar in my note when I joined as a Patreon member.
Thanks Paul, you truly are the 'YODA' of our hobby. 👍🏻
Words of wisdom indeed. It's easy to see how much you care about this humble hobby. Thank you for thinking about us enough to share your thoughts.
Let's go! It is ALWAYS a good day when Paul uploads! Absolutely love your style on this channel sir!
Thank you!
Always excited to see a vid from you Doc!
Thank you!
Keep the videos coming Paul - this has always been the best and most informative modeling channel on RUclips.
So glad to see you back posting. You have the same perspective that I do when it comes to building models. The enjoyment is for me and me only and I do my best, but never try to satisfy someone else’s world.
Thank you Paul.
You are the proverbial one eyed man in a blind kingdom.
You are and always will be my inspiration for building scale models and starting my RUclips channel to share my process with my subscribers. Being from a country like India, where people mock us scale modelers for wasting time on building 'useless toys', it is a long and hard journey to craftsmanship. Thanks to maestros like you and countless others, I get to enjoy my builds and bask in the experience of build journey!
Been a while, but always good to view a post from Paul...Thank you.
No truer words have ever been spoken. Right place right time....thank you.
After watching a lot of these modelers on you tube it is refreshing to this hobby put in perspective. You, Paul, Mike Ashey and old boy on scale model aircraft just build models in the best way possible. Always look for watching you and the other two. There was one more his channel was the scale modeling technique, he passed away last year.
The sage of styrene,nice one 😉👍
Great to see you posting again!
He's back!
The best time for me is when the candy store put my model on layaway! it was an accomplishment just getting it!
Thank you Paul, i love your videos. 👍🏼👍🏼
Thanks Paul.
Always a pleasure to hear your profound words sir. Keep the inspiration flowing
Thank you!
Thank you for the light of knowledge!
I personally have found scale modelling as the best possible way to develop my handworking skills together with understanding of engineering and systems in entertaining way. Enjoying fixing the kit production flaws more than easy quick assembly and obtaining gloss even surface of lapped plastic more than weathering. Always looking for challenges, buying especially crap kits, meeting new materials, restoring second hand vintage models etc.
Yes! A new video! Best modeling videos and tips on Earth!
Very profound. Thanks.
I loved listening to your model musings....You're awesome dentist dude!⛵
Thank you!
It's great to see your video again.
I loved hearing from you again!
Thanks! I needed that.
Feeling the same way!
Needed to hear this.
PS : currently working on the Revell WW1 SPAD ( 1/28 ). So much fun! Stay 😎!
That was fantastic. Thank you
Hi Paul, perfect timing !!
l’ve been procrastinating over two old 1/24 330P4 (Fujimi/Union) models on the bench, trying to understand how to combine them for the best result.
Best result for who, I now ask.
So thank you for the reality check, really appreciated.
Trust you are well, thanks so much for these words of wisdom
Excellent words and outlook on today’s hobby. Thank you for your wisdom 🤓👍
Thanks Paul! Great stuff to think about.....really like your work.....I too prefer gear-up aircraft model.....also your PT boat is really cool.....Shapeways sell the 3D printed WW2 US Navy crew and they are EXCELLENT, check them out!.....Keep On Truckin ' KC. CA. USA
Love your videos. I’m getting back into scale modelling after many years and finding that space again. Makes me happy.
Thank you!
Good to watch Doc, thank you
Thank you!
Thank you for this!
You are welcome
Great to hear from you and with a profound message, nonetheless. Hoping to hear and see more, my friend.
Thank you!
Well put sir 👍☕🐢
Amen
Good words! 👍
Thank you!
You sir, are a philosopher of great and good. What makes a man? What makes a model? Why does a man make a model? Well, at least it's PRODUCTIVE. And, in imitation of my favorite Roman: I close by stating, once again, boredom must be destroyed.
I agree. I have missed your sage comments.
Please make more videos. we want the maximum we can get from your experience sir.

Model building like life is about the journey not the destination...
Wish I could shift my perspective to one like this, but for now I'm sadly still stuck in the "look how much time I spent only to disappoint myself, what am I doing..." era of my scale modeling.
That's a choice you've made. Only one in control is you. But then again, that just gives you another thing to be disappointed about.
@@scale-model-workshop I hope it will change over time, but when you're still new to the hobby and learning through mistakes (which is necessary) it's always a bummer to not come close to your vision or expectations.
🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
Good thoughts and build to enjoy and please yourself. If a person wants to be a super detailed builder . Then they may need a basic model also getting built to release the stress of the other. In the end there just plastic models.
not a single weathering product in sight
You missed the point here.
First
Perfection doesn't exist in nature. Try to achieve it, in any field, and you'll be disappointed.
When you start shouting at a piece of plastic, that's the time to stop. Maybe for the day, maybe for years before coming back to the model. I find I need a connection with the subject, something about it that drives me to see the "problems " as fun, rather than a nuisance.
Ahh yes, the issue of Detail Paralysis ! Trying to hard to achieve absolute perfection resulting in no forward momentum.
