Hi all I was wondering what grabs you on a build, by that I mean what makes you stick with a build ( obviously the title has an initial grab factor) yes if its a topic you are interested in intially you will watch it but then you may loose interest quickly, but what keeps you watching a build is it the skill, artistry, subject or the way the build is posted ie humorous, technically accurate maybe historical info. My builds tend to be here is a an update oh here is another oh and an other which I realise is so boring and to make it worse I tend to write it on one site then paste and copy to the rest (we all do it) I want to improve in my posting, so what's lacking. I realise I can't be an expert in all the genres I build in (I like so many) but I've noticed you don't have to be an expert to get loads of views and comments so it can't be solely down to knowledge or skill. So what is it that gets people following a build. Subject matter, skill, knowledge or some indefinable amorphous thing.

Nothing in the headlines makes me look, it is down to subject matter i think, and just explain what you have done in the update.
I notice some people put the 'update " in the title, i usually don't, but have done a couple of times, it makes no difference,
but if a build doesn't get updated for some time, it can go stale and people stop looking for it.
I just build, if people look, good, if they don't, so be it, i build for me, and just hope others enjoy what i do too.
Too many people get lost in the views and numbers, JUST BUILD, that is the best advice i can give mate.
Unfortunately, too many people ONLY comment on their own build, which is a bit selfish i think,
if everybody did that, it would be a pretty boring place, so C'MON guys, we all want to know you opinion on everybody's builds.
Enjoy modeling, that is the most important thing though.

I tend to look at them all. Never know where you might get an idea or tip on how to do something another way. I also use the new posts so I hope i dont miss anything. All the builds interest me in some way

Very good questions. For me, it's subject matter first. If it isn't a vehicle I like, or am particularly interested in, I generally won't comment. For instance, I will generally comment on 40s to 70s American Iron, but not on say, a Formula 1 build, or a Euro car. Secondly is the quality of the build, I love a neatly detailed, tidy build-that'll get me everytime! Sometimes you don't even need extra wiring, etc. Hope that makes sense?
