CPU Cooling is dead, long live CPU Cooling

Hello!

So after yesterday I hoped to bring some good news today. And I do have some good news but before that let me introduce you to a little situation I had this morning.

Today my CPU cooling decided to go into early retirement. It just won't work anymore and the CPU temp shoots up to beyond 70C in less than half a minute - and that in th...

Hey all,

So, my quest to learn my camera and get the best out of it continues. Today saw some success, and some failures. The success story is a short one and you can see it above. 

One of the things that needs to improve in my videos is the intro. These need to capture the viewer, show him what he can expect and show the quality of wh...

 Hey all,

Another update for all of you regarding the upcoming video.

Visuals (Animations)

All the visuals and animations have been completed. The majority have also undergone the necessary external QA and should be good to go. As I will add audio to them, I anticipate that parts of these will still need to be up...

Hey all,

A lot has happened which accounts for my silence over the last week. So here is the run down and an overdue update for all of you.

Behind-the-Cockpit 1.3

 Hey all,

Here's the next Behind-the-Cockpit! In this one I talk about some of the changes I have made to a scene (while showing said scene to all of you) and some of the reasoning behind this. Very important to me is uncovering some of the still unopened potential of my animation style, with simplistic, clean and clear-cut ...

Sneakpeak: Fokker C.V.

Hey all,

Time for another sneakpeak!

For the next video, I will be introducing you all to a very special Air Force in the heart of Europe. Part of their planeset in the opening months of World War 2 was a mix of modern aircraft and those that hail from the late 1920s and early 1930s. 

One of these is the ...

Hey all,

Another Behind-the-Cockpit for all of you. In this one I will talk about why colours are so important to my work, give some thoughts on how I choose a composition and show of my pallet for the next video. It might seem like a minor point but colours can make or break the viewing experience!

Big News For Patreons

Hey all,

I hope all of you guys are doing well. 

Before I get to the actual news, I want to say thank you: Over the last weeks, YouTube has demonetized several of my videos and permanently restricted ads on one. The fact that you guys support me here has cushioned the blow severely and prompted me to ...

Next video: The Forgotten Men of the Battle of Britain

Hey all,

This week's release will be about the 'forgotten' men of the Battle of Britain. In popular memory, three kinds of pilots are remembered as part of this clash between the Luftwaffe and RAF: LW Bomber pilots, LW fighter pilots and RAF fighter pilots. 

Remembered largely as a defensive battle, this makes sense. H...

Sneakpeak: Polish Air Force

Hey all,

Next week will see the launch of quite a video on Luftwaffe operations during the Invasion of Poland. Here is a sneakpeak of what you can expect/ This scene concentrates on the disposition of the Polish Air Force in 1939. It is not yet completed, I will most likely add some numbers into the scene itself but you get the picture.

A Suspicious Lack of Aircraft

Hey all,

Here is today's video. As some of you might know, I was at Tankfest 2018 and took the occasion to make a few clips of some rather strange and wingless vehicles, nearly all featuring oversized guns of limited practical value in air-to-air engagements.

In any case, I hope you enjoy this episode. The ...

Sneakpeak: Bomber Formation

Hey all,

Quick sneakpeak for tomorrow's episode.

One of the thigns I've been thinking of doing for a long time was having voice actors reading out quotes. There shouldn't be an overload but it does benefit the content in such a way that it makes it clearer that 'another person' is speaking, making a transition to a ...

Ungrateful or Insignificant? Lend-Lease and Soviet Aviation

The Official History of the Soviet Air Force called Allied Lend-Lease  'insignificant'. Good enough reason to take another look!

Sneakpeak: Lend Lease

Hey all,

Here is a quick sneakpeak of the upcoming video. It will be on the effect of Lend-Lease on Soviet aviation during WW2. 

One of the 'sources' I found was the official history of the Soviet Airforce during WW2. That book, written in the 1970s in the Soviet Union, calls Lend-Lease 'insignificant'. A good reason t...

Here are my answers!

Hey guys,

I will be on the road for a few days so I might be less active in the coming days. 

However, I've uploaded my answers to your last Q&A questions roundup and you can find them here. I am not yet sure when they will be published as a whole on the channel, perhaps next week or sometime September.
