>The fact is that Alec hasn't succeeded through his trade even though he is good at it, he succeeded as an entertainer,
Yes he achieved the most success through youtube but he would've done well without it by just selling tools, sculptures, and running classes. Most craftsmen use youtube, insta, and fb to market their work. Once you focus entirely on youtube, you begin to sell advertising and not the work itself.

I don't have a large channel, just someone I use occasionally to post videos when I want to promote a certain thing. If you looking into the demographics you would see that the audience is not children but usually men aged 18-65. You might be able to find this info about alec's channel on socialblade.

I'm defending him because he's a friend of mine and I'm tired of hearing fags seethe every time he's brought up.

>This thread is filled with people making fun of a retard, who made a retard mistake, and looked through his channel and see how mediocre he is in a lot of areas of his so called "skills".

This is another thing I don't understand. There's always some faggot whose never made a mistake ready to call someone else a retard for posting one of theirs. Hey, at least you know everything.

Picrel, I didn't know this was "unskilled". You must be killing it dude, a real life Michelangelo, master of the paintbrush, and stone hammer, 2d and 3d. Working on the most exclusive projects, charging the most money. No you probably have some standard construction trade like plumber, whose work nobody every sees or cares about so long as the shit doesn't run down the walls.
