- Well, we did the first level, but at a higher
- This is not fun.
- The way you do it for, um, at least the machine we use now, um, and we've always done that, we we, uh, use a, um, box that converts HDMI to um, dang it, paint is on the wrong side again.
- My goal is to finish wave one for everybody that I have.
- I fractured my heel a year and three months uh you and nine months ago.
- And so, uh, so how many how much characters I have to paint? Oh, I have so many to paint, Chris.
- But you get less brush strokes. And then what I do for the final thing, so I guess essentially it's going to be two stages since I'm doing two thin coats, um, is I also use a speed paint or contrast paint over this.
- So, my goal is to get back around roughly before it's dry.
- And that's 100% valid.
- But you can see here it's rubbed through here. Hold on. It's rubbed through here a bit, but it's smooth and it looks pretty good.
- Yeah, this one's actually pretty good already.
- So, the rim of the base look. It looks really quite good.
- My fingers need to be cleaned.
- Wow, that black paint just coming off from my fingers too.
- Boy, that is not a good intensity for these.
- Well, awesome. Thanks for joining me today.
- Thanks for putting up with the little technical glitches.
- It's a Kenner nomination. I'm not sure. I don't know what will win.

Quotes (from this video)
- So Mookie's an interesting game because this is maybe the lowest age type game that I would even consider rating on this channel because on the box here it says four plus and that's really where this is at.
- It's so basic. You draw a card and you're like I will keep a good card. Which one? Well, I think I have more of this than other people. I'll put the bad card in you.
- I just think parents would struggle with this one because you could really maybe trash your kid at it if you're thinking but also be bored to death with it a little bit but it's so pretty and beautiful.
