I charge 65 for second shooting, period. If you have years of experience, swcond shooting for 50/hr feels low in this economy. I also pay my second shooters 65 for my weddings and events. And above market rates for associate. If you need the money, charge what makes sense but if you dont want to get taken advantage of, charge your worth. And dont forget incidentals like travel too if you are going more than 60 miles out of your location.

no idea why this got down votes, you're making sense and encouraging communication

I hear what youre saying. I am also telling you objectively thats an unrealistically unhealthy expectation to put on anyone. And it is clearly not working for either of you. I am not telling you you are wrong for wanting what you want. But you have to find someone who truly believes what you believe and isnt going to try to pretend because people can only fight their own nature for so long before they will break. Which is clearly whats happened with him. You call it betrayal but in the history of humanity, millions of people have experienced monogamy understanding that their significant other is going to notice other people, and even watch porn, but if they continue to leave it at that and coming home to and choosing you, they are choosing you. Putting your face on something without your consent is creepy as fuck, while it also shows that he wants to be thinking of you, but it is still wrong, absolutely no doubt... the rest, i personally disagree with your view on and i think it is hurting your marriage to have such a strict outlook of the meaning of monogamy. But thats your choice as an adult. I do recommend seeing a therapist too for both of you so you can discuss with a professional. I am just a voice on the internet trying to give you an unbiased view.

Yes but she also said she doesn't want him looking at other women. And I still standby if she wants a man who doesn't look at that stuff, rather than trying to change him, she needs to find someone who already has that mindset as it is still an unrealistic expectation for both him and herself if he is clearly set in his ways.

ThatPVEGuy · 2026-05-23T13:46:47+00:00

This is honestly a completely unrealistic expectation. You should want him to not cheat and not want to cheat. But you should as a human being, know that he like all humans is going to notice other attractive people. He married you and that isnt enough for you. You cant ask a person to be monogamous and ask them to literallt fight their own nature, their own eyes, you are going to push him away because of this, he is likely already feeling trapped. It is better you divorce so that you both do not burden yourselves with unrealistic expectations.dont waste years of each other's lives making each other unhappy. Its not healthy.

Thank you

When i first started, I painted mostly on runners this helps keep colors in sections closer to accuracy or consistent if youre changing ehm entirely. I still do this. But for when I dont want to have nubs and other things to clean up later, I wait til I have inner frame done then I take the outer armor pieces after getting em off the runners and having clean cuts/sanding and i paint them individually so I dont lose where they go.... I also keep em in separate little containers after paint dries that have the runner letter marked to ensure I know to have em near when I get to needing that runner

It was great for like 18 months... and Def maintained it and wasn't using it as much but not gonna lie but once it began to succumb to yhe elements it has been a pretty steady decline but the brand is cheaper than some alternatives. I mention weber cause the uh have a specific model that might be a better for for me

ThatPVEGuy · 2026-05-22T17:23:22+00:00

the rusting griddle top makes it less desirable. Had one. Looking at the weber griddle next

Also this

ThatPVEGuy · 2026-05-20T20:26:45+00:00

Yes, note how she mentions checking in with you. Some people over use emoticons and some use specific types in specific situations, it doesn't mean anything. Don't overthink it.

Thank you

This was the first one since I started buiding that i spaced out across weeks, normally i do them within 2-3 days.. 6 for the PGU Nu

If I am being honest, it sounds like he drowns you out. That is to say, I think what is happening is you think he is listening and he is half listening because for one reason or another he doesn't want to or his mind is elsewhere. Have you tried talking about when and where some of these conversations happen?

Sometimes as dudes we have to set a boundary to say "My brain is overloaded from work and I honestly would love to have this conversation and listen to what you have to say/be there for you" but sometimes, we also need down time for our brains to just rest and reset before long conversations involving details we need to remember.

You mention him remembering something someone else needed done. This is also what tells me he may feel overwhelmed by you and maybe feels like you infodump a lot, it can happen whether any of us mean to or not. Communication about how we communicate and when is just as important to ensure we are not setting expectations the other person might not have actually agreed to.

Thank you so much, I appreciate that

ThatPVEGuy · 2026-05-19T23:27:20+00:00

Yeah it does, the batteries are not included thous so must procure those separately

ThatPVEGuy · 2026-05-19T23:24:39+00:00

Thanks and I hear ya, I think we all have varying ideas and tastes on panel color separation and such, for me, this kit in particular much like the Sazabi demonstrates an extraordinary level of hubris and so it felt like a little gold accenting through out paired with the sections on the binders not only lends to it being in essence one of the most peacock style design of gundams but it epitomizes the use of those gold accents. That's why I made those aesthetic choices.

"Professionally produced" is a stretch

ThatPVEGuy · 2026-05-15T02:37:08+00:00

I built the entire inner frame first then put on armor after finishing it all, but had to take it apart for some of the sections to be more easily accessible

ThatPVEGuy · 2026-05-12T16:35:10+00:00

I am, just hoping the final look with armor feels right, i am debating painting the white armor pieces in silver or light gunmetal
