    NGL this video is pretty entertaining, it's still a shame that things went wrong, but your "oooh...." reaction got a bit of a chuckle out of me. And sometimes we need videos like these to show us "what not to do and why", well done for not giving up on the project, it still turned out beautiful.

    I always enjoy the longer videos because after the first few minutes sink in it somehow becomes meditative and induces the feeling that there’s no outside world to worry about; similar to how Bob Ross videos feel.

      @@tcsyme Yes, it's like charging for your time as an artist. I will always charge based on the time I've spent over the years establishing my skills, but charging for time on a specific project would often make it unaffordable. No-one should work for free, but I also work for fun. That said, whenever anyone accuses me of not being fair by charging for written tutorials, etc., I become even more sure that I'm right for charging.
