Hey Midwinter Minis! Your channel got me into Warhammer a year ago roughly, with your 'how to play warhammer 40k' videos.. Thanks for the amazing quality videos!!
I will say that I perked up at the chair review, as I'm 6'3" and 230 lbs, and then... GAH!! If you ever DO find a great chair for bigger fellas, let me know!! Thanks for sharing the tour of your studio! That was excellent information all around!
Had no idea Dr Simon Clark painted warhammer until I read this comment... now I've caught up on your monthly painting recaps Im looking forward to seeing some more Hawaiian orks!
In the world of warhammer hobby channels, 200k+ is pretty huge though! The only others with those kind of numbers are squidmar and miniac. Guy is one of the elite when it comes to warhammer channels. If he was making videos about Minecraft or Fortnite, I sure he would be on 1 million by now...
Just wanted to say I've been watching your videos for about 6 months now and you are definitely my favourite hobby RUclipsr. Your positivity and can-do attitude has helped me re-discover my love of this hobby since I quit back in my late teen years and motivated me to paint more miniatures than I would have. I hope one day we can meet so I can buy you a beer in thanks for the amazing content you provide and am wishing you and penny good luck with the two babies coming!
That spray paint can holder on the back of the door is a smart idea. As a tiny tot, I put my little fingers in the crack at the back of the door; and my Dad, not knowing I was there, closed the until the lock closed with a click. Oh, how I screamed. One of my knuckles would click for decades after. Thunder! Thunder! Thunder Tube! Also, Sharkfist is an awesome username.
I’m gonna be honest, it’s really impressive that you can do this in a 3x3meter room with a minimal amount of equipment. I have a 3x3m room and all I do in it is sleep, so props to you
The chair rant was my favorite part. So often you hear youtubers, podcasters, etc. talk up stuff they like, and you're never sure if it's genuine or not, it's refreshing to see the negative review of a product you hoped to be good. And the rest of the room was inspiring! I want to move to a new apartment and create a painting area too, but NYC is so confined, it's nice to see that I won't need a palatial mansion to continue this hobby, and that efficient use of space is possible even if I'm disorganized!
I always love to see how other people are making the best of small, rented spaces--I ended up building a "room within a room" in order to mount stuff on the wall.
I'm sure all those software companies know that most people don't pay for the product, but they turn a blind eye to it because they know professional users _do_ tend to buy a license, and discreetly letting people use the product gets them into the software ecosystem.
At this stage I think ideally I'd get Thanos snapped away for 5 years so I can come back and binge watch the complete Warlord Titan series and the start collecting death match series in one session. Congrats on the twins guys.
The Vlog aspect of the channel is a big part of the appeal for me. I don't "need" to know how a resin model is built, or how to speed paint Death Guard, since those things aren't anywhere near my current projects. But following Guy tackle different problems and explore is pure hobby fuel. Thank you for all the great content!
Nice video and I'm glad that you addressed the chair being subpar. I'm still on the lookout for good ones and can cross that off the list. Nice to see what you can do with a smaller studio.
If I could offer a small piece of advice, you should avoid "Gaming chairs" like the plague, and get yourself a high quality office chair like the Herman Miller's Aeron/Embody or any other similar quality chair. You don't need to spend a lot of money on a new one, there are tons of second hand ones at reasonable prices.
@@OriginPainting No problem, happy to help :) It is important to know that usually office chairs feels a bit awkward/uncomfortable at first. It's mainly due to the fact they force you to sit "properly" and not slouching like you would in a gaming chair. It also take a bit of trial and error to get the settings dialed in perfectly. So you might be a bit disappointed the first time you sit on it, I know I did. At first it feels a bit "stiff", but once I realized that I can spend 10+ hours sitting without having any back/neck/shoulder pain I became a believer ;)
Your videos always provide amazing inspiration! • Working on the pile of shame • Boldly trying a new painting technique • Cutting up an expensive model (because, lets face it... all GW models are expensive) to try a first kitbash Now you've added - You too can share your passion with the world! It's why I anticipate your videos every week!
With you making such a bold statement I reckon there should be a sweepstake about how long before you make a video with the title "Why I changed my mind about wet palettes"!
Nice to see one of my favourite youtubers again. I’ve been watching ur videos since 2019 and I am a long time subscriber. Finally I have found an English 40k player on RUclips
I got to say, sir, seeing a room that you have for all of your stuff makes my mouth watering. I am still at high school, so room for myself is still in a folder of dreams and promises, but this video definitely will one day help as a kind of ,,list of important stuff". But now I think, My and brothers room is well enough to paint some Indomitus Necrons.
Serious respect to you for recording like that as you work on miniatures. With my eyesight I have to be right up close to see what I'm doing and the way you do videos really let's me see what I should be doing. Almost like it's from my pov. And congratulations on becoming a dad! Get those dad jokes ready!
Love your videos. I'm not a content producer, so very little personal application from this video. I just like listening to you and getting to know you through what your videos. I'm going to go comment on some other videos now...
That codex at the end was the first piece of Warhammer literature I owned and what started my Warhammer hobby. I remember back when I was little in Poland (4th grade), my dad told me it was very expensive for a book, but a few days later he went out and got it for me. I spend so much time flipping through those pages and fell in love with the hobby forever. Great video Guy! Thanks for sharing!
I really enjoyed this tour, but not only that, it was so comprehensive, especially on detailing how your equipment has changed and evolved was fantastic! Keep it up Guy!
loved this video ... I don't think creators fully understand how interesting it is to see your gaff and work space and how you have organised it. I found it totally fascinating nice one.
I always enjoy these BTS videos, also a creative process video is something I'd love to see. As someone with ZERO film/audio experiance I find it all extremely helpful. Thanks for showing us your workspace!
I’ve always loved the way Guy films and I figured it most be a bit rough. Certainly made the videos much more interesting for me and makes me want to get into the hobby. Also I’m glad to see that the genuine feel of it all is because it really really is genuine. Just makes it all the easier to enjoy.
Well this was an enlightening presentation...regarding more than just your equipment (which was REALLY useful I feel). You are indeed a warm, honest, and talented person and deserve the attention You've received over the past year (at least). It's been a pleasure and a reward watching. Thanks. And of course, Cheers!
Don't know if Penny snuck in for her 15 seconds of fame or if you happened to film an elusive mystical creature in her natural habitat . . . You guys are awesome! Keep up the good work Guy, and Penny you just keep doin' you!
If you have oil paints and haven't used them, oil washes are a really fun place to start. Try just blocking in basecoats on a model, gloss varnishing, and then thinning down oil paint and slapping it on. Leave it to dry for a bit, rub off whatever you want to clean up and voilá!
I love your battle reports because you explain what is going on and skip all of the boring parts! I would love if you could do some more maybe even some with more points...
I’m watching will eating breakfast. When you made the comment the moniker being having the best colour “but then, neither’s mine” I nearly sprayed cereal. That was funny! Loved seeing the plectrum on the table as well. Thank you for the tour.
I truly enjoy seeing good people do well. Wishing you and Penny an amazing year. Also any chances of doing a drawing to get to name the upcoming Midwinter Baby. Penny will love the idea 😂😂😂
10'x10' is the size of my hobby workspace too...welp...I can no longer use my lack of space as an excuse for not producing videos more regularly. You've organized your space terrifically! You've given me a few ideas. Thanks for the tour!
@@MidwinterMinis an adult is just a tall child holding a beer, that's all lol. But on a serious note I've got problems with my chairs as well, got two Dx Racer ones with several model generations between them but they excel in different points where the other one fails. If the lumbar support is comfy the neck pillow is shite and vice versa.
I work at a computer for my day job and use that EXACT SAME mouse. Gamechanger. I thought I was going to need carpel tunnel surgery from getting a dead arm by the end of the day and after switching to that mouse, no issues. It was a hard adjustment at first, but now it's second nature. Well done!
Thanks for diving in to RUclips last year. Honestly, your channel is among the many I go to for hobby inspiration and generally just to decompress. Keep it going :D
Love the channel Guy. Your voice always seems like its just a few seconds away from saying something funny :) And your other half is hilarious, always strikes me as a mix of slightly disapproving yet supportive :)
It's actually inspiring to see how much have you got out of a quite tiny room. I've just moved in my very own house and since there's no spare room for hobbying I'll have to share space in my bedroom, and this video gave me some nice ideas. Keep up the good work, it's always refreshing seeing "Midwinter Minis just posted a new video!" :)
Hey Guy, I don''t play Warhammer. I did when I was younger, but nowadays its the occasional D&D mini. But I come to your channel because Il like you. As much as I like Miniac etc, so many of the mini painting channels feel like big spender pro masterclasses, which is rarely what I'm after. Your content is basically just a nice guy who's still very much 'on the journey', sharing his hobby in a well presented and chilled out manner. Good luck to you mate.
You can be honest with us Guy - you photoshop your hands on top of Penny's in the painting videos. It's all down to her - the recording, the painting, everything. You're just the frontman and it's all a charade. :)
halfway through the video i just have to say, that I love the fact that you proceeded to showcase literally everything :D congratulations on the twins!!
Fantastic stuff. Thanks Guy. The most important takeaway for me is the breakdown of how you spend the time. I’m sure people think it takes as long as the time it takes to record.
This was a fascinating insight into the lift of Midwinter Minis, I've had a personal dabble at making some of my own RUclips videos and this is just inspiring thanks for the tour !
Bro its just good to see someone who deserves it doing good. The thundertube that i so want to call a bong just made my day hence the comment. Brilliant work and good luck.
+1 on the Rode stand. I use one myself, they're so much better than the cheapo stuff. Lovely production room! The mish-mash of makeshift items is so Orky, I love it!
This last month i have been rejigging my painting desk setup to make it easier to film and aiming to stream soon :) These videos are always super useful for newcomers, Miniac's setup videos made it easier for me to know where to even begin - filming miniature painting is a unique challenge that not alot of people talk about, so thank you for sharing yours :) I recently also just purchased some SmallRig gear (those same clamps) and was blown away with the quality - I'm trying to rig up my monitor atand with them to have all my boom arms come from above, if i can finally figure it all out then I'll have to poat a setup vid too :)
So excited to see your creative process on Space Wolves! Everyone typically has their own unique take on their Storm-Grey/Blue and I can't wait to see how you do it.
I'm 6'5" and heavier than you, and I've been using either a Steelcase Leap or a very good knockoff (unsure, it was cheap) for a few years now. It's very adjustable, and I think there's a version with a head rest. I highly recommend it.
Recently needed a new chair for PC work and gaming and read about gaming chairs being mostly not up to the task (I am also tall). Went with a quality office chair that I already knew from work - same price range as most gaming chairs but it delivers on its promises and look nice as well. Look into a heigt-adjustable painting table as well! Will do wonders for your back and neck.
been watching for almost a year, and your videos single handedly made this seemingly daunting hobby tangible and exciting for me. I hope soon I can get the funds and time together to put together an army of my own. keep it coming guy, your videos are among my favorite to see in my sub box.
Might be a something you've already tried but, unclip the top cushion an clip it round the back of the top of the chair(just above where it widens), will raise it up a few inches might help with its placement a bit
Having used an A7iii for my mini painting videos over the last 6 months I completely agree, it's far from the easiest to use but for picture quality it's incredible. Got a second one on the way for multicam!

Hey Midwinter Minis! Your channel got me into Warhammer a year ago roughly, with your 'how to play warhammer 40k' videos.. Thanks for the amazing quality videos!!

I knew my "to buy" list would explode after watching this. I knew it. And yet still I watched.
Ain't that the truth. But compared to a year ago, I actually have a permanent 1/5 m^3 hobby space now. All in good time :)
I'm so sorry, haha

OH YOU
In the world of warhammer hobby channels, 200k+ is pretty huge though! The only others with those kind of numbers are squidmar and miniac. Guy is one of the elite when it comes to warhammer channels.

@@OriginPainting No problem, happy to help :)
It is important to know that usually office chairs feels a bit awkward/uncomfortable at first. It's mainly due to the fact they force you to sit "properly" and not slouching like you would in a gaming chair. It also take a bit of trial and error to get the settings dialed in perfectly.
So you might be a bit disappointed the first time you sit on it, I know I did. At first it feels a bit "stiff", but once I realized that I can spend 10+ hours sitting without having any back/neck/shoulder pain I became a believer ;)
Best new Patron for last ;D
Congratulations to you and penny on the imminent editions in a couple of months!
Thank you!

Haha, I'll see what I can do
Your videos always provide amazing inspiration!
• Working on the pile of shame
• Boldly trying a new painting technique
• Cutting up an expensive model (because, lets face it... all GW models are expensive) to try a first kitbash

Bolt Action gets me going, I can't lie.
You can almost smell the tank diesel
@@MidwinterMinis Petrol. Everyone but the soviets and USMC used petrol.
Bro its just good to see someone who deserves it doing good. The thundertube that i so want to call a bong just made my day hence the comment. Brilliant work and good luck.
Amazing to see what can happen if you just keep making videos on the internet! Love it
I really like how you store rattlecans
Smart eh?
+1 on the Rode stand. I use one myself, they're so much better than the cheapo stuff.
Lovely production room! The mish-mash of makeshift items is so Orky, I love it!
Haha, thanks. About 20 years of finding good deals ;)
Congratulations to the twins!
It's so nice to have a dedicated room!
Hey guy, i like your videos a lot. They are inspiring and entertaining. Thanks for your work and the upgrade that you bring to our community.
This last month i have been rejigging my painting desk setup to make it easier to film and aiming to stream soon :)
These videos are always super useful for newcomers, Miniac's setup videos made it easier for me to know where to even begin - filming miniature painting is a unique challenge that not alot of people talk about, so thank you for sharing yours :)
I recently also just purchased some SmallRig gear (those same clamps) and was blown away with the quality - I'm trying to rig up my monitor atand with them to have all my boom arms come from above, if i can finally figure it all out then I'll have to poat a setup vid too :)
So excited to see your creative process on Space Wolves! Everyone typically has their own unique take on their Storm-Grey/Blue and I can't wait to see how you do it.
I'm 6'5" and heavier than you, and I've been using either a Steelcase Leap or a very good knockoff (unsure, it was cheap) for a few years now. It's very adjustable, and I think there's a version with a head rest. I highly recommend it.
awww congratulations on the twins!!!, also i like the way you organise your stuff , so organised in a small space.
Congrats on the twins! Also youre most likely more organised then most of us ever will be.
Hah, thank you!
Recently needed a new chair for PC work and gaming and read about gaming chairs being mostly not up to the task (I am also tall). Went with a quality office chair that I already knew from work - same price range as most gaming chairs but it delivers on its promises and look nice as well.
Look into a heigt-adjustable painting table as well! Will do wonders for your back and neck.
Yeah, an adjustable table might be a good shout for the future!
been watching for almost a year, and your videos single handedly made this seemingly daunting hobby tangible and exciting for me. I hope soon I can get the funds and time together to put together an army of my own. keep it coming guy, your videos are among my favorite to see in my sub box.
hey guy and pennie! just a devonshire lad saying thank you for the content! its been keeping me sane
Thank you for the tour; it’s always interesting to see setups. Congratulations on the twins!!
Cheers Joel!
Might be a something you've already tried but, unclip the top cushion an clip it round the back of the top of the chair(just above where it widens), will raise it up a few inches might help with its placement a bit
Having used an A7iii for my mini painting videos over the last 6 months I completely agree, it's far from the easiest to use but for picture quality it's incredible. Got a second one on the way for multicam!
Thanks for the tour ! I really enjoy your simplicity (in the good way !) and honesty , keep up the good work Sir ! Cheers !
