    Sometimes being mates and doing business together ends in disaster; it is great to see two people making a mature business decision and still staying friends. I wish you both success and thanks for role-modeling how grown-ups should behave. Looking forward to the content you are both going to be putting out in the future.

The fact it's created a space where you need to change things as they weren't going the way you expected? - you are doing the right thing by making changes. It may suck, but keeping your heads on straight is too important not to. Cheers from Melbourne, Australia =D

    So gutted it didn't work, for Josh, for you, for the channel and the hobby in general. Genuinely loved the whole vibe and all the content you guys put out together. Massive shame it didn't work out, but really really well fucking done for handling it so well. (Absolutely not to be underestimated how difficult that must have been.) Remember you chatting to us about it at Chillcon and even how open and honest you were about it all back then was admirable. In the end I think it will end up being a net positive and that's down to how both of you have conducted yourselves. Big loves to both of u! ❤️

    @childofthedarkrat Рік тому +1

    Oh thank fuck! Don't get me wrong, you guys are bloody great together, but you're also great individually.
    It was really noticeable that both your content was becoming homogeneous, and you may as well have just combined channels at that point: you could really hear Luke's influence on Josh's work.
    Similarly, the whole "this week we'll paint a sponsored thingy cos they've paid us to, while trying to tie in some vague theme and pretend we're not just getting paid to paint sponsor's models" schtick was very obvious, and growing tedious. It's stopped both of you actually being unique in your approaches.
    Having said that, you two on screen together is always a pleasure! You definitely bounce off each other provide a lot of laughs and an enjoyable viewing experience. Would definitely be good to still see you do collab work

    being (appropriately) up front about the business side of being a creative in this hobby is something I value greatly in your videos. it's easy to get the wrong idea watching these kinds of channels, like everything isn't a business still... from people who should get way more views and struggle to find a foothold, to people who find great success with an audience but sacrifice their wellbeing or enjoyment in the process and burn out, while either situation maybe isn't apparent to the viewer until the channel goes under. Hope you both get to enjoy what you do and put out, for years to come.

    After watching the long time fall out of two people who I used to enjoy watching together I have to say this is the best way to do it, I think you guys came in with some things you wanted to say and then just riffed for a bit and I think you were honest. Honesty is the biggest thing and I think you can read it all over your faces. Luke is looking at this like I am going to try and be upbeat, please see that this was hard for me, I fucking hate this, and Josh... Josh just looks sad. And I have to say I can relate to both.
    I am sorry things didn't work out. I wish the world was slightly different, I have the distinct feeling that if you had of been doing this in booming 2017-18 things would have been a lot easier how a few years make a difference.
    Good Luck Love you guys

    Sad to see the team split but the time you shared with us was absolutely fantastic to watch. Good luck Josh. And good decision Luke to want to focus on your business, you have to get your products out there, notably in Europe because with Brexit we can't afford to pay 18 pounds for delivery + taxes direct or from hobby shops in the UK, like we used to. Get your really nice product range in the major hobby stores online like super-hobby and we'll gladly support your brand. Few stores carry your products, can't ship throughout Europe or are often out of stock. I assure you there's business to be made here...

The hobby has certainly given me a creative outlet that has certainly improved my own mental health, so the irony of you guys having to make this decision to pack it in is not lost on me.
