G'day, Welcome to my channel.. I am a self-taught Amateur Voice over artist (Actor)/Voice Impressionist, Fan Series maker, Artist and Part-time 3D Modeller (for CTW).

On this channel, you’ll find various videos which I make in my free time to share with fellow fans what I love to do. My main focus on this channel is the 80s TV Programme ‘Tugs’ but you’ll also occasionally come across a Thomas and Friends video, Impression Reels/Demonstrations, Blinky Bill/Yoram Gross videos (January and February) and much more.

This channel isn’t here to get the most views or compete with larger channels, it’s here to purely share some passion, love, dedication and pride towards my interests which I’ve retained since a young age. My content is all suitable for all ages to watch!

Have fun and “Keep on Tuggin’”

That's very good. SilverBand7 based his Diesel 10 performance off of Keith Scott, medium between Neil and Matt's voices.

@@DavidBContentExtravaganza3967 thank you for your comment. Out of the voices I do for diesel 10, Keith Scott is my favourite as my natural speaking voice isn’t too far of Keith’s and I can impersonate just about any character he’s voiced (the diesel 10 voices I’m able to pull of are Neil crone and Keith Scott) I probably can pull off Matt’s take, but I haven’t studied it enough.

Very cathartic indeed! Two characters who represent more than a bygone age where things were simpler, but characters whose adventures and shaped who you are as a person. You felt the sadness that they felt, you rejoiced at their triumphs and in a way, they were always there for you and always will be. Loads of love dude! So happy to be involved in your it RU-vid journey! 💙💙
