great tutorial. Thank you!!

Just one question, before applying the fiberglass, did you apply something to prevent it from adhering to the silicone? Or did you apply it directly and there is no risk of the fiberglass and the resin sticking to the silicone?

very expensive way to mould

Hi again, can I ask are you a self taught sculptor ?

do you sell them?

Would you say that it's harder to get extreme detail into Super Sculpey rather than monster clay? I'm finding it hard to get the sculpey to do what I want it to do but it looks so effortless for you!

Im going to pressure cast a 60's movie Dalek beaker in clear polyurethane. The beakers walls are approximately 2mm thick. Can you recomend a good value uk brand of water clear polyurethane?

Very much appreciate your craftsmanship here. You have excellent control of your tools and media.

All seems a bit fishy to me😂 Cool sculptures and great vid explaining your techniques.

absolutly love the designs! lots of skin details for washes to grab onto :D

I loved the video! Such cool monsters! Been listening to a lot of hp Lovecraft and reading a collection of Lovecraft! This is so cool! Would love to see more videos like this in future! Very inspiring

You got a lot of GUTS coming in here….

Three things that shall not be named. Howard would be proud! They remind me of the art of Jim Pavelec. Truly ghastly indeed.

I wonder if they are called Nightmare, Psychosis and Trauma and are in a Hell Metall band together?! :D

Me like rock on stick idea Rock on stick good.

Great idea with the soldering iron. I'll be keeping an eye on your etsy!

Absolutely gorgeous pieces! Great tips too and a lucky find with the soldering station! Love them guts and shoulders! (Never thought I'd say that in a sentence!) 😂

Excellent work! I like that last one very much, very organic and dynamic.

Love it, I play call of Cthulhu rpg , I love sculpting mainly in sculpey but I do have monster clay and nsp chavent but yet to use them. Keep up the Cthulhu sculpting very inspiring

Love it dude

amazing as always my dude!

Great busts turned out. In general, I like all your sculptures, I watch your videos with interest. Paradise Lost is one of the most beloved bands since childhood. I just didn't understand why this album was re-recorded, everything is fine with it anyway. That's what I did and sold on Etsy until sanctions were imposed against Russia: czcams.com/video/Ct8hQlKsMtU/video.html

Stunning!

Amazing work as always sir. You may want to be careful about using aluminum foil on that wax burner. When heated, that stuff can put off some nasty fumes.

Ah yes, nothing like horror beyond my comprehension to watch while drinking my morning coffee.

HIDEOUS

Just starting out with working with clay. Plan on making the mudman form the Castlevania game. This vid is really helping, thank you.

I'm not an expert by any means, but I wonder if the big issue here was not having enough indexing keys on the first mold. When you do a cut mold you're essentially creating a ton of indexing keys to help the mold lock together properly, and you get the least amount of flashing / mold lines. Just a thought :). Awesome video though I love your work!!!

I only found your channel today and I've spent the entire day literally binging your videos! Absolutely love your creations and your channel falls right up the alley of a direction of hobby I was looking to go down (normally a miniature painter but I wanted to expand to more sculpture/scratch builds/prop projects). I was wondering if you remember where you picked the skull up from? I was thinking about making a servo skull desk lamp for my best man as a thank you present!

Amazing. I’ve always wanted an Ex Machina statue or figure like this

Brilliant video and very informative, would the Polyurethane be suitable for exterior pieces? I believe it has a very good tensile strength is that correct.

This has come out awesome. Makes me wonder what you would have come up with, if you just read the descriptions jn the books

I've been wanting to do this for a long time. Thanks for explaining the process. You can use the same mold using concrete. A friend of mine used plaster instead of fiberglass and he used to make garden sculptures and statues. Cool. 💀

I was just watching some shorts by the DenUngeHerrHelm guy that does the ink blot paintings and it reminded me of this cause of the degree of randomness involved

That's a great technique, thanks for sharing.

Monster clay is really versatile, but I would never have thought of trying that 😮 awesome work as always sir 😁👌

A very clever technique, and some great effects!

Very nice! This is a really cool effect

Very interesting Results.

Spooky and interesting! Westernkind is amazing and creative!

Ola,no entiendo muy bien las forma de sus figuras podría explicar que son exactamente ,qué sentido gracias por tiempo saludos cordiales

Holy cow, the level of detail and your creative sculpting techniques are literally out of this world. Such a beautifully macabre piece you've created!

Really cool demonstration of techniques. Not something you see everywhere.

BG3 fans would probably go crazy for casts of this.

Does this clay dry or harden somehow ?

Absolutely brilliant, I love anything lovecraftian , I play call of Cthulhu rpg every week and like to dabble with polymer clay/chavant/monster clay, looks very colour out of space 👀

Always be open to inspiration, it can come from anything at any time. it is also good to experiment. During the creative process mistakes are not something to be afraid of, they are helpful lessons. As adults we sometimes lose that ‘joy’ of creativity and experimentation that children have. A child will not be too concerned with the end result, what may start off as a unicorn may end up being a tank with wings. Your videos are very informative and interesting. You take us through the whole process, the pros and cons etc. Perhaps if you have the time, a Q&A now and then would also be good to watch.

Never thought of pouring monster clay into water, very interesting! I shall try it myself sometime in the future! Really interesting!

OMG, where to start?! That is beautiful [whatever 'that' is] As a devotee of H.R.Giger I appreciate the grotesque/disquieting imagery that flows from the subconscious influence. Not worrying about the end product and having fun is SO important. I think inspiration was replaced by a lot of plagiarism after Giger appeared and AI seems to be channelling this too. However, I see new ground broken in your work here. You've gone beyond the tropes of this genre and yet stayed true to the core of the 'grotesque/disquieting' - I mean - this piece is as innovative as any of Giger's work 'etc'. The 'experimental' techniques are intriguing; I remember (back in the day) dribbling molten wax into water, creating wonderful shapes but due to fragility not being able to incorporate them into my work, hopeless to make molds of. You need to cast this thing merely as a test to see what can be achieved or have it 3D scanned first to prserve the original. Now I have a tip/trick you might consider; back in those wax dribbling days I also used to use good old [yucky] plasticine to make puppet heads [school days stuff] add papier-mache and scrape out the plasticine. But when I had the plasticine head finished instead of papier-mache I would wrap it in polythene/clingfilm/plastic bag etc and then 'subject it' to the flame of a gas cooker ring. It burnt, it smelt, it melted,blistered&popped, but OH what wonderful grotesque head remained. You could try that with the harder oil based clays (monster clay being a little too heat sensitive) be my guest. All the very best, I await your experiments, professor. . .
