#valentinesday #cupid #angel - Jak na to + styl
Would you ever consider doing an art room tour? Or just a video showing all of your artwork? I’m curious to see how much you’ve achieved! Love the videos!! 🩷🩷
Edit: I’ve learnt that he either throws them away or gives them to patrons.
I bet this guy's shelves are stacked with artwork!
OMG YES!!!! PLEAEAEAEAAEEEAESE SHOWCASE 🥺🥺
I’m pretty sure he sells the things he makes and doesn’t keep them
@@Its_just_mary Dont say it is so 😭😭😭
I think I remember reading somewhere that he gives all these away to a random patreon. I think
I laughed way to hard at the paint brush incident. That tip was like "No, I am not having any part in your creations anymore".
HA! And then the tape on the brush afterwards is Adam saying “YOU DONT HAVE A CHOICE”
The paintbrush tip flying off and the silent pause after might be the most real artist moment I’ve seen on YT 😂
Me too!!!
it said bye-bye 😆😆😆😆😆🤣😂😂
7:24 you are welcome
Your honor, if you replay the footage, you can clearly see that Adam forgot to give my client the string for his bow, so he couldn't have possibly hit the victim!
Magic 🤷♀️
This sculpture could be called “The Love of my 25 to Life”
If is 25 to life?
@@libracrossit’s a reference to prison lol like 25 years to a life sentence 💀💀 seriously one of my favorite titles he’s ever made lol
Your Honor, Cupid couldn't have murdered this man! Why, his bow doesn't even have a string to fling that arrow!
This is clearly an attempt to slander my client's good name by that foul Tooth Fairy!
Your client murdered him with magic. The magic of Love. For murder.
But your honor, you weren't even there
I mean the tooth fairy steals teeth, your honor! IT’S F#CKING WIERD
The town carpenter: And IN the making of that very bow, which I am not in charge of stringing, I found my assistant, Adam here, calling it wrongly! Here is the evidence: 3:06
@@nameblbsoh
Objection! The Tooth Fairy does not *steal* teeth, her teeth acquisitions are nothing more than equal transactions! The children of the world offer her the teeth they do not need anymore, and she gives them money in return! This is slander of the Tooth Fairy's name and services!
Somewhere around the 4:48 minute mark Cupid looks like a naked and absolutely clueless Trump in the middle of a tantrum.
I hate it so much that I love it!
exactly what I thought lol
Diaper Don with the GOP on the floor.
I also saw Trump
Yeah?
Yes! So it’s not just me, then!
7:20 that brush malfunction is a mood. I love how he stops mid sentince and then it cuts to the brush with painters tape on it.
🤣🤣🤣
You really captured the magic of those medieval paintings of baby Jesus where he looks like a middle aged man with this piece
8:25 - 8:32 “Speaking of which, let’s make a victim.” This has got to be one of the strangest quotes I’ve ever heard.
You haven't spent much time on this channel then, every video adam says something strange or just plain horrifying 😂😂😂
Ah yes, Adam says, "But not in a weird way" and proceeds to make something cursed by putting the eyes in. 0:49 - 0:59
9:13
‘position the fingers in a more “oh no, i’m dead” pose’ has got to be one of my favorite quotes ever. i think i know why i love binge watching this man’s videos so much
7:20 The sudden silence threw me off so badly I thought my headphones broke... and actually missed what had happened the first time I saw it.
Idea:
How about Dante and Vergil, but they're the Mario brothers
Edit: over 1200 likes?! You're all insane, thank you
Oh my god that's amazing
i am the storm approaching, provoking, black clouds in isolation
@@martinpierce4634
I am reclaimer of my naaaaaaaaame!
Literally best suggestion ever ADAM DO THIS PLEASE!
Yea, that'd be dope 🔥
Adam not having a face somehow causes all of his sculpture to make perfect sense
What’s that supposed to mean? 😅
@@TheRealAmek They're so beautiful that if mortal eyes were within a mile of them, the persons brain would immediately explode.
He is just some Eldritch being gifting us with a glimpse of his eternity lol
He would be arrested for his crimes against god if he showed his face
Nice "I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream" reference.
13:52
"And I poop standing up."
I want that username so bad😭
A great name to end the list with lol
Hell yeah. Time to procrastinate, watch this monstrosity, and then begin working on twelve more clay projects. Let’s go
Taking a break from your clay projects, with a clay project. Love it.
The brush tip launching itself hits close to home as one of my own did the same thing this week. I have no room for the weak so it got replaced, not taped.
“I have no room for the weak.” About a paintbrush is insane and I am so here for it
@@equally.marketableI'm adding that to my vocabulary lmao
When my eye makeup brush did the same, I used PVA glue. Surprisingly, it is still holding together.
It took me way too long to figure out why cupid looks kinda uncanny. It's the lack of eyebrows, eyelashes and ears. Still love the Art piece ✨️murdered by love✨️
YES my bf and I also noticed!! Haha did he forgot them or was it on purpose? :o
I love your presentation style so much. The en-noun-ening, the bizarre things delivered like they're perfectly normal, the self-aware goofiness. It complements your art and always makes me look forward to the voiceover
Ofc only Adam can make Cupid horrifying
That's right 👉
No holiday mascot is safe from Adam!
I mean in one of his original myths he kidnapped a girl and married her while prohibiting her to see anyone and when she tried to look at him he ran away and she had to work for his mother Venus.
Would you look at that, another wings of fire fan watching a guy sculpt weird things!
That baby was always creepy lets be honest
Thank you for being the one to get me interested in clay sculpting ❤️
9:46 wow wasn’t expecting the Face Reveal! 🎉
I love the way you sculpt your human characters, there’s something very Angry Kid about the style you have, especially the expressions, awesome work as always
cupid been getting away with it for too long
That clip of the paintbrush tip flying off and the silent pause might be the most real artist moment I’ve seen on YT 😂
8:27 “Let’s make a victim.” Is a very ominous line
Such beauty has never graced my eyes until now
I have a great idea.
For the victum's face.
Make it simple, just use a pen or marker and draw a face like... x_x that.
5:02 you forgot about "Not just good, but good enough"
This perfectly represents how I feel when I remember Valentine's Day is a thing and I'm still single. Thanks for the reminder Adam!
4:20 POV you live in Australia “oh hey man…just went outside for a bit.”
(Edit: it’s 4:55am.)
Fun fact: I was eating Valentines day chocolate while watching this
4:52 I thought it was Donald trump for a second
1:03 I had to pause the video to let go a massive laugh because it caught me of guard. 😂
Can't wait to see the sequels, cupid on the lam, cupid getting his mugshot, cupid shanking a guard and of course, cupid getting the electric chair.
Wow! I think you should add some blood on the shirt and a string on the bow. But your sculptures is amazing as usual 👏🏼
Hehehe, the absence of blood led me to wonder if someone pulled a nasty prank on Cupid...
So that's why we love these videos.
Just want to say but thanks to you I’m into crafting people with clay
I love that you took the time to make sure he was "ABSOLUTELY DOUBLE CHEEKED UP" 😭💖
This channel consistently comes up with the absolute most cursed diorama concepts possible.
Your chuckle at the eyes is amazing and made me laugh with you, great work as always
3:04 GOOD SIR THAT IS A PERFECTLY GOOD WORMIE DEALIE AND I AM BETRAYED AT YOUR GALL TO CALL IT A MERE NOODLE.
4:39 why this man-baby looks like
Donald Trump 😂
i'm greatly appreciating the sheer breadth of the North of the Border holiday mascot universe. The easter bunny, zombie santa, and now cupid. together at last.
EDIT: how could i forget the Christmas biblically accurate angels? thank you @rayquazdinosaur3732
Don't forget the Christmas biblically accurate angels!
0:20 IM CACKING WHAT!?😭 ALSO EPIC SCULPTURE 🔥🔥
I literally had to pause the video to close my eyes and “sorry, what the fuck?”
@@alecboi777 HELP XD
I think we need real life Bob's burgers characters. The bow didn't have a string...
We do need
this'll be good. thank you for your continuous hard work, adam!!
"I fully acknowledge that this isn't my greatest sculpture" - This is still awesome! 😯 I wonder what classifies as his "greatest" work?!
It's so nice to see there is someone else out there with a similar demented mind. Love all your stuff!!
Please, please make something about space, like gargantua from interestellar, or that famous scene where a man looks to earth from the moon and then earth gets fricking vaporized by a asteroid
He did that one sculpture of the giant space tentacles crushing Earth! So there’s at least one space video you can watch, not sure about any others tho lol. I agree that more space-themed projects would be pretty cool!
12:17
i literally cheer every time you bring out the static grass.
it is, indeed, the tits.
Okay, this looks SO AMAZING! The quality of both sculpting and videography is improving greatly! Good job!
Oooh you stole my idea, I was going to make a twisted/evil cupid sculpt! Very good execution, I loved the police chatter at the end 😂
Cupid got so scared his eyebrows fell off.
I love watching these sculpts come together. It's so dang funny. 😂 North of the Border is like a cartoon artist that sculpts. He a Cartoon Sculptist. 👍
I have a request that seems right up your alley. Lost silver from the pokemon creepypasta of the same name. Bonus points if you add unown floating around him spelling a quote they spell in the creepypasta (i.e: "he died" "no more" "I'm dead") and extra bonus points if you add the shiny celibi* or the typhlosion.
Best regards and good luck in your crafting, Qpeek of HelloKinkajou.
Ps. If you make the celibi, make sure it's cut in half with innards hanging out. I also advise reading the creepypasta beforehand and looking at reference images. The portrayal in fnf monochrome is a good one.
Hi Adam. With your penchant for gore, I'm surprised there isn't any blood around the wound. 😆
cant wait to watch this!
edit: aluminium nutsack, already perfect video
That caught me completely off guard
9:14
And then position the arms in a “oh no, I’m dead pose.”
It is one of the weirdest quotes I have heard but also my favorite
When an accidental murder scene feels like a pretty tame piece compared to others lol.
Love your work. Static grass is neat, but looking forward to more rock texture rocks.
Haven’t watched the video yet but it looks promising! I’m glad you posted, because I’m currently sick and have nothing to watch! Thanks, man!
woah no else is here. i literally love this channel so much
Amazing once again. Could even have added a police officer questioning Cupid
Horrified 'date' standing by in a state of trauma, too!
9:40 aw but adam, don't think i didn't see that video that you showed you face ;)
I’m sorry but 0:58 made me flashback to Colleen Ballinger
I like to imagine that North of the Border has a shelf directly in front of his bed for all his sculptures so they can watch him while he sleeps.
A beautiful build, North. I'm absolutely in love with it!
Oh, God, he hit my left lung.
My birthdays right after valentines day, so this is like a gift 😂
8:16 My whole body went 'eeughuguee' when he did that-
12:48 Police code 140 is murder
This is basically an art/comedy show! Loving it!
I don't know why, but that narration at the end caught my heart
I didn't realize Cupid was running for US President!
The baby started to look like a tiny Donald Trump and I was like “oh no”. 4:56
4:00 "absolutely double cheeked up" my favorite part of the whole video...
For every holiday, I have little decorations I put on a shelf in my office. I don't have any for valentine's day though.. This would be awesome to have!!
Love the content
1:50 he looks likes shrek's babies!
😂no matter what! Adam’s characters are always caked up, love his works so much lol
Wow. You really nailed the expression. Emotions are hard to convey. And he’s looking straight at the arrow too. Impressive!!
You should make toothless from How to train you dragon but cursed
You’re hinting towards the meme, aren’t you?
Not unsettling enough >:)
Yes yes yea
That dispatch at the end was a great touch.
a new christmas idea is to do the nativity scene but everybody in it is dinosaurs. there has been art of that before and i think u would nail it.
in a less holiday oriented suggestion, do one of those character generators but for mythological beasts. theres so many from all over the world that could be so fun. from winged snakes to necrocats to those philippines vampires who split their bodies. theres a lot to play with there.
or you could always do more of ur realistic pokemon/pokemon bursting from cards. those are always well viewed, and you do them very well.
i love ur art and ur dry wit. its so fun to watch ur vids. carry on, fellow. :D
Soon everything will be off camera and it will be 20min of glamour shots
13:20 Bro has *ASS*
💀💀💀
🫵🤨📸
@@BadibasicsSchool.you’re taking a picture of his gigantic dumptruck ass?
Nah wrd
I love your original pieces. They are always amazing.
You're the reason I'm starting my clay journey again.
Back in '82, someone shot me to death with an arrow too. I could've taken state if they didn't do that. You should make the 24 piece set. Maybe even a time machine to get back to '82.
First
wow that thing is horrific..........extraordinarily unsettling and upsetting... amazing work!
not even halfway through and im visibly upset....... mr border youve outdone yourself
I’ve been sculpting with polymer clay for a while. Want to get more into it.
2 questions:
What do you use tacky glue for?
What do you use to make your paint washes, and how some are a lot thicker than others.
HA HA HA!! OH MY!!!! This is GREAT!! I Love IT!!! "A Victim!" Little Guy picked up the wrong quiver huh? HA HA HA !! Thank You for sharing this!!
Ive been gone for a while (because i was moving to a new country) only to come back and see that youre just as funny as before. Definitely gonna start watching your vids again
you know what you should totally do a build every time a holiday comes around and developing the characters that you have made doing all kinds of things xD
You should make a model The Soldier mid rocket jump and post the video on April 8th, to remember a fallen man who made one of the biggest impacts on gaming history forever
R.I.P. Rick May
the wings look so amazing!!! honestly you keep saying your work is halfway decent but you got so good at your craft
That Harlan Ellison reference was perfect 😂
Hey! I just introduced your artwork to two more of my grandkids and their dad. They were spellbound! My suggestion for future subjects - CIRCUS CLOWNS! And anything else under the circus tent - Bearded Lady, Elephant Man, etc. and Carnival characters of course.
