I feel that in my bones. Being creative this past year has really helped me deal with a lot of stress and scary changes. I hope that 2022 is easier for us all 🫂
Wahoooo! And here's to even more good stuff in 2022!! 🥳✨ I think weirdly one of my things I'm proudest of making this year was a silly cooking video with a friend that I edited like it was a reality show. I usually hate editing with a passion, but I actually let myself just have fun on that one and I think it showed in the finished product ✌️
I've had an amazing time getting to know you and and the rest of the crew. Thanks for being my friend Raquel 💜 Looking forward to seeing what we make in 2022.
I am proud of the friendships I have forged through you. When you set up the discord server I don't think you realized how much it would mean to those of us in it. We have all become so much more than a commenter on a video, or a thumbs up. I can honestly say I have some really cool friends all around the world thanks to you and I hope one day we get to meet and make some art together! Keep up all the amazing work Raquel and just know that you will always have people in your corner whenever, and where ever, you need. Stay Stoked!
This comment seriously just made me cry 😭 Thanks for sharing and I can echo those feelings. Getting to know you and the other folks in the discord has really been incredible. I’m super proud of everyone for being so open and supportive. I hope 2022 goes well for us all and we all reach new creative heights 🌟
You should be VERY proud - that piece came out so cool! Can’t wait to see what you create next 👏 And thanks for being such a positive member of the community 🌟
This was a really down to earth(lings) video that was shared. In all seriousness, to date one of my top 5 videos you've made so far. I really have enjoyed watching your channel grow and your skills improve over time. Between you and Miscast, you have gotten me to branch out more with my art, with decidedly less judgement on my ability over other artists. It really has been uplifting in general and I am glad that you have had some good feelings coming out of this. I think most of us are really looking for like-minded people who don't seek to teardown. Anyhow, just wanted to drop a note saying so. Django attack & Bloopers, man I needed that!
Awww Chris thank you! This is all very kind of you to say! It can be super hard not to compare yourself to others but at the end of the day I think we can all bring a lot of value to our artwork (whatever the medium) by just creating in our own authentic way. I’m so happy to hear that Trent and I have inspired you and I hope you know that nice notes like this inspire us as well! 👏 Cheers to bigger and better things in 2022!
Most proud of the variety of new things I tried out in the nerd/mini/art worlds. Many of the things you listed: painting, kitbashing, mold casting, 3D printing, 3D design, graphic arts classes, writing RPG materials, terrain building, dioramas, sculpting, clay and wire armature, sprue assembly, and getting to do sweet collabs with other creators. 250 vids for 2021, going to try and beat that in 2022. I owe much of my art start and progress this year to Raqrex Art and Monsterbash and the positivity among the UA-camr makers. Thank you for being such an inspiration and bright spot in an otherwise ruthless internet.
What a great year you have had - such variety! I love it! Thanks for watching so many of my videos and for sharing your experience with Monsterbash. I hope you have a fantastic new year of artistic exploration and video creation 👏
I only really got into Mini painting this year and I'm probably most proud of putting together, painting and basing my Glottkin. They/ He/ It was such a big project, and now they/ he/ it towers over my little nurgle army. XD
This was such a delight to watch, I don't comment much but I've watched your videos from the past year and the improvement and quality has been fantastic to witness. The background of your grandfather was very touching and I'm sure he would be proud of what you have achieved this year. I can't wait to see what you come up with in 2022!
Thank you for the comment and recognition 🥲 I’ve been trying to get a bit better with each video so I’m so glad it shows! I’m sure Pop Pop would be proud and I hope he’s smiling down at all my silly art. Here’s to great new things for us all in 2022!
Got teary eyed reading your comment (I’m an absolute softy 😭)!!! Thank you so much for your support - it is seriously so cool knowing that my little Pop alien is seeing the world 👽
One of the best things this year was finding your channel (seriously, I mean that! 😄) because you branch out into so many creative things; mini painting, drawing, food, etc. Plus you have such a bubbly and energetic personality and it really means a lot to me that you responded to some of my posts with really in-depth replies. My favorite finished project this year is my Junith Eruita vignette; I finished it on Christmas day, so it was really down to the wire, but it turned out so well and I really used a lot of mini-painting techniques that I've learned from a lot of different UA-cam content creators. Hope you have a great 2022 and I'm looking forward to all of the projects planned for this year!
That sounds like a very cool project - I’m glad you finished in time! Thanks for your very kind comment 🥲 and for being such a supportive member of the community. It really gives me a ton of energy to keep going when I hear that I have inspired others 🫂 Here’s hoping 2022 is filled with more art and less chaos!
I'm sure your Grandfather would be very proud of everything you've achieved and for being a huge inspiration to people like myself. The project that I'm most proud of is making latex masks from scratch. It's definitely taken a lot of practice and hours of frustration but I feel like I've really achieved something that I never would have thought possible to make. Best wishes for 2022!
Awww thank you so much 🥲 That sounds really cool and I have no idea how one would even make a mask like that…I might have to go down the UA-cam rabbit hole later researching that…And yes here’s to a new year filled with creativity!
@@RaqrexArt You should check out Stiltbeast studios and Distortions unlimited, those 2 channels really inspired me to try out that type of mask making. Also you should check out Much Props, lots of cool projects on his channel as well!
This is such a lovely video. I'm proud of some of the things I've made, like my Baymax, but I'm maybe even more proud of the friends I made on your discord!
Happy new year and thank you Raquel! Your videos are fun and the positive and creative energy you put out is just fantastic for this hobby. You spread a lot of cheer and quite often your videos really put a big smile on my face. As for favourite mini of the year, now that would be a hard one to choose. I've sculpted a lot of weird miniatures and had lots of fun working on each project so it is so hard to only choose one that would be my favourite. But if I had to pick one it would probably be the last sculpture I finished a few days ago. It was a super weird deamon thing that counts as a female 'Great unclean one' for Nurgle (Warhammer 40k). Really looking forward to what else fun and creative videos you will be making this year and I wish you the best. :)
Awww you’re so welcome and I’m glad to hear I have made you smile 😊 It’s going to be a great new year of crafting! That sounds like an awesome project - I love all the sculpts and artwork I have seen for Great Unlcean Ones…so icky yet cool haha
I am proud of the old Wulfens I've painted (they are miniatures), I'm proud of my orktober terrain I made and starting sketching and searching stuff for my Warhammer chess sets. Thank you for all the positive videos, and super cool stuff you've share with us. And HAPPY NEW YEAR !!! AND I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE YOUR COLLAB WITH THE FELLOWSHIP OF UA-cam !!! (I think that's how Lachie called it)
@@RaqrexArt Thank you. :D I'm excited too. Almost all the fellowship is youtubers I follow. It's like a super crossover stuff in a LotR setting. It can only be awesome.
Discovering your channel and getting to know you through Monsterbash has been so awesome, super grateful to have been able to work on a project with you! Wishing the absolute best for you this year and can't wait to see what you do here on youtube~
Happy New Year dude! My favourite thing I made in 2021 was a little polymer clay ghost, Boo from Super Mario. I would never have attempted it had it not been for channels like yours. For real though, I'm the most proud of the progress I made as a person in 2021. I hope your channel grows and inspires even more people. 2022, woo!
That sounds like such a cute little sculpture! I’m so happy to hear that I have inspired you and I really appreciate you sharing your accomplishments with me! I’m hoping this year shines a lot brighter for us all 🌟
Thank you so much! I'm trying my best to keep it up 😉 haha. I'm actually aiming to do less collabs this year and focus more on finding my own voice (although I'm sure a few group projects will slip in there!) but you should stay tuned for the next Monster Bash - we try to make that project accessible to as many folks as possible so they can follow along and create with us!
I’m most proud of surviving 2021.
I feel that in my bones. Being creative this past year has really helped me deal with a lot of stress and scary changes. I hope that 2022 is easier for us all 🫂

I'm not crying You are! great sentiment in the video and this year will be a creative masterpiece I just know it.
It is safe to assume I am ALWAYS crying 😂 😭 But yes this is going to be a great year for us creative folks! 🎉
@@RaqrexArt I'm the same; emotional movie, I cry; a nice sentiment, I cry. Comes in handy during larp though.
@@p-thor commercial about coffee…I cry. UA-cam video about animals…I cry. Spilled milk…I probably cry 😂
I'm so glad I found this lil community this year
You should be VERY proud - that piece came out so cool! Can’t wait to see what you create next 👏 And thanks for being such a positive member of the community 🌟
Biggest accomplishments? Surviving. But slightly more seriously, I was in four group exhibitions this year. Whoo hoo!
Whoa congrats! That’s super awesome! Here’s hoping 2022 has more exhibitions and less fighting to survive 😉
What a sweet video!

I watch a lot of hobby stuff and just want to say you might be the most bubbly and cool creator out there, your channels fucking mint.
Awww wow thank you! I’m just out here trying to have fun, be myself, and inspire others to make fun art 👩🎨 Here’s to cool new creations in 2022!
Very nice vlog. Looking forward to your next video, they have been very artistic and entertaining and positive. Keep up the good work.
Thank you! Next video should be a lot of fun 😊
