I have used both and I hate gel.

I thought it was great. I watched the entire thing from start to finish. I think the explained everything with perfect detail. Tools, plastic types, reasons, future plans, etc. Yes, the camera was about 20 feet too far from the minis for close up shots. Lol. But live and learn. I really hope we get more of these. And you have to remember they can't share brands of glue/tools for legal purposes. This is a multi million dollar company, not some cool dude on YouTube sharing tips and tricks.

I agree the camera positioning could really use some improvement - but hey, we did get some laughs out of the event and Alex was semi forthcoming with some new ideas they'd like to do! He seems to really want Enfys Nest!

It takes practice and a refined setup to get good videos of minature painting/building. They should have hired Sorastro.

I use the tamiya extra thin for parts i want to weld together and not have a visible seam. I use the lock tight brush on glue for affixing to bases or places where i do not want a weld.

The super glue is good for parts you are not 100% sure on too. You can break it apart easire than the plastic glue.

When I started the only miniatures prepping instructions I had came from an issue of Dragon magazine that I had to hide from my parents. You kids these days with your Youtube videos have it made.

Did you also have to walk up-hill in the snow both ways to get your glue and magazine?

And side note, to anyone that's interested, this is what I used for the droids and it works just fine. Available from Hobby Lobby, etc. No real mess, no fuss, no massive explosions of bottles or glued fingers.

Course not. Nothing within walking distance sold gaming stuff. We lived in the country.
