I'm suprised you didn't make him crazy realistic.
I think Adam took some of the drug plant. It doesn’t fit his character.
Petition to make it crazy realistic
👇
I'm disappointed he didn't
Same here!
Like to add realism
👇
we need realistic Brooklyn plumber elephant
👇
Now you gotta make a realistic elephant with a Mario hat on it and a mustache.
Yeah
Yes
Oh heck yeah
No
Treu
I love how whenever Adam says “… and on to the glamour shots” he sounds surprised that he made it through
I have been thinking this from the very first time I encountered his content XD
as much as I love your horrifyingly realistic/over-detailed sculptures, it's also very nice to see ones that are just cute and pleasing like this!
Hi! You probably don't remember this, but you left a really nice comment on a video I posted a while back and it made my day :D. I also just think it's funny that we're into the same type of content lol
It feels quite strange to see Adam making regular sculptures instead of horrifying ones, you cant unsee the signs at 7:26.
elephant mario is already terrifying enough. no altering needed.
It's really nice! I didn't follow a horror channel, I followed a tiny nerdy things channel!
He has made regular sculptures before
I like when he makes sculptures like that, the realistic ones are too creepy and ruin the character for me.
He actually does normal sculptures about as much as he does the "realistic" ones.
"You only yolo once" can always rely on Adam to be the funniest guy in the room. He somehow managed to make a "as the kids say" joke hilarious
You only you only live once once
😵💫
I'm waiting for the YOYOLOO merch to drop...
I’m genuinely so impressed by your sculpting talent. You can go from making horrifyingly realistic and detailed simpsons recreations to making this adorable sculpture of elephant Mario. Props to you!
Finally a north of the border creation that is actually pretty cute and won't create nightmares
What I wanna know is where he keeps all of the creepier creations. I’d imagine on a shelf watching him go to sleep
I think he gives them away, he passes the curse on to other people
@@Mosstoad he said on one of the comments that he throws them away
@@The76532 he throws them away 😱
@@The76532I wish he didn’t throw away the realistic clay Lego, I would’ve bought it.
@@The76532I'm sure that was a joke tho. at least I hope it was
Best new quote ”good from far but far from good". I love all your projects Adam! Looks great from any distance.
i had to pause the video to try and understand that.
as a percussionist, your paradiddles were exquisite 🥰
What did you call him 😫😭 can't believe this hate 😔😥
Yes the nice paradiddles
I am too, a percussionist
I slowed down the video and yeah he plays them all right. Bravo to him because rudiments like that, especially at the pace he was playing can be a pain
Yes, agreed!
Hey I would like to thank you for these videos I'm 13 and I've been trying to sculpt for 2 years now and I have always been terrible at it but with your videos I can observe how you add your detail, make the armatures and such so thank you for making these and being super funny in the background.
You're one of the few creators that can handle my four minute attention span.
not a flex
@@Scriblyn how in the world did you take this as them flexing???
@@Mysteriosukeyeah like wth
@@Mysteriosuke its very clearly a flex
@@quenguin7866my guy, they’re just saying they have a short attention span and Adam is just one of the few creators they watch that can handle it. They didn’t outright say, “yeah my attention span is pretty short, Ik it’s cool and mysterious.” Stop thinking everyone flexes their issues or wtv.
When I saw the direct I was like “Adams SO gonna make this”
it's crazy how much you've improved painting eyes.. it's honestly really impressive
i was 99% sure the thumbnail was a prank and you were going to make me look at a hyper realistic elephant-human abomination
Your art is always absolutely insane Adam! Thanks for inspiring me to learn sculpting. And humour.
That elephant Mario hits different. I was dead watching it. Thank you for the great content. I recently got into sculpting and your my main inspiration.
is there an afterlife?
@@ehhh2547what does that even have to do with this comment 💀
@@Substantial-Burrito read their comment again and think a bit ^-^
@@ehhh2547 an afterlife of clay
Yea it literally hits different. You know an elephant mario sucker punch hit 😂
His first creation that isn’t a terrifying creature beyond mortal realm
If he ever learned how to 3D model he would be the most powerful person ever
Agreed
4D modeling.
This really looks like it could be a statue for release alongside the game, tremendous work as always!
If it was made out of vinyl I would assume I was looking at an amiibo reveal
I'm always jealous of your extreme patience and dedication because it seems like it would take a really long time to make this stuff
Same here cuz I have absolutely zero patience
Really happy this wasn’t ‘crazy realistic’. As much as I do love those videos you also have such a wide range it’s always nice when you tackle things outside of that style. Would love to see some more dioramas.
This sculpture (suprisingly) doesn't traumatize me and ruin my nostalgia of mario all the while not being TOO realistic, good job ❤👍😊
the elephant without the hat and the beard is just "Benjamin Blümchen" from germany ^^
i’ll wait for the hyper realistic elephant wearing a red shirt and overalls
"You only YOLO once." got me really good phahah
Its kind of refreshing to see Adam make something not so cursed for once. I mean its still cursed, but still.
As a percussionist, I approve your paradiddles.
Please, for the love of tiny nerdy things Adam, I humbly request that you create a terrifying ogre named shrek. In the move he is supposed to be scary but he is just gorgeous and it must be mended, and you are the only one who can do it.
The writing on this video is amazing, especially during painting.
I want to preface by saying that I love your horrifying sculptures, but I also really like the cute ones, like this one!
I'm happy you don't only make horrific sculptures😅, and this one is so cute!
I feel like you've been skipping a lot more stuff via transitions, but I get that, it's mostly repetitive things that aren't super exciting - I'm just glad you're not cutting off your commentary too, it's my favourite part of your videos
Also! That cut where the ball rolls off and lands covered in clay was pretty darn cool
bro he always be making the best and goofiest things ever
I love how everyone wants it to be extra realistic but whenever it is we all address it as a sleep paralysis demon
We have in Germany a cartoon figure, it is an elephant names "Benjamin Blümchen". He is Marios forgotten half brother.
Elephant mario looks really cool in the thumbnail
Hey, random idea. I think it would be real cool if you make sculptures based of DC vs. Marvel.
What? I thought you only made horror sculptures? This is true beauty. as a percussionist, your paradiddles were exquisite .
You know its already weird if North of the Border is not making it weirder
Adam I would just like to say that I love your work. Your voice is very soothing to hear while watching these masterpieces get built. Your work always looks amazing. Also the texture added with the piece of cloth definitely made a difference for the glamour shots. Keep doing what you're doing and I will always watch, thank you!!
He looks so cute 😭 you always amaze me!! Great great! 💕
"Good from far but far from good" is the new "Not just good, but good enough."
I was surprised Nintendo combined two loveable things, The mighty but adorable elephant and the most famous video game character, Mario!
Hey, I hope you're okay. I guess we all miss your new videos, but I really hope you're feeling all right :)
This to me is talent, making a human character into an animal and yet you can still add a mustache without it looking totally wonky.
It's an actual power up
6:19, “never forgives”, I actually laughed out loud 😂
"Make sure you video that comment and like that smash." I LOVE IT. I love all the word play and the YOyoloO, makes me smile so much!
For the German viewers, he looks like Benjamin Blümchen lmao
IKR???
@@itsmicaiguess haha
He’s everything I never knew I wanted!! Thank you!
"The advantage of sculpting in colored clay is you dont have to base coat"
Proceeds to basecoat the entire model.
Lol. Never change North 😂
I'm glad you did decide to make Mario Elephant. He brings me joy in both the direct and knowing that you now have him in your home. [I still don't get WHY an Elephant power up. But you know what? These are the same people that had us control Luigi's dreams by pulling his mustache and get vored by Bowser. It's a lot less weird in comparison.]
To the germans am I tripin' or does he look like Benjamin Blümchen with a beard?
I'm not even German and I saw the resemblance
Don’t know how I hadn’t realized the horror of an elephant with human hands until just now
Eh, it's not that weird... at least they have fingers... sorta. Horses would be incomprehensible with hands (they have one giant finger). It's why Bojack looks so uncanny to me
@@berserker3414 True, I hadn’t thought about Bojack either💀 At least he doesn’t have fingernails
Felt really strange hearing my name at the end (Destiny_Awaits) but it was 100% worth the serotonin boost, this channel has helped me chill out and feel better on some real messed up days. Really happy to be a patron!
“Good from far but far from good”, thanks for the quote, I’ll be stealing it
Am i the only one who just realized Mario has gloves?
Agreed. The elephant without a trunk was horrifying.
not me expecting an elephant mario that defies all suggestions of gods just to get something that made me smile
Your videos are the only thing keeping me from going crazy during the war. Your videos are always amazing and keep up the good work. Much love from Ukraine 🇺🇦 ❤
Hows it going over there? Are you guys winning?
This is great and so full of charm
If I could just ask a question, what epoxy resin do you use for your underwater creations? as you've inspired me to give it a go on my own sculptures
It has a link in the description to the resin
@@MrMe-by5tbthat's UV resin, I'm talking about the deep pour epoxy resin, I've looked online but most don't want more than 2 inches per layer
@@olivermatthews1009Not sure what Adam uses, but one of my other favorite makers on CZcams, Peter Brown (way different projects but similar vibes, I think you'd like him) uses Total Boat epoxy.
The new fake-out transitions are great! I loved the "normal" ones too, but this is a really nice touch of of love for details and the humor of the videos.
Next time make a realistic elephant with a really big mario hat and one of the overwall straps is so big it kills someone when it gets unstrapped
What? I thought you only made horror sculptures? This is true beauty
he does :) everything he creates is an abomination barely comprehensible to the human senses :) hope this helps
I love your videos and they have actually helpped me learn how to sculpt better! Thank you! (Your art is so good dude)
Hey, I have an idea for you. You could sculpt a creapy version of one of the sages from TotK. They really creep me out when they arrive from behind me. It would also be interesting to see how you could create the golems. they are all made with separate floating parts.
Elephant-Mario just looks like Benjamin Blümchen and i cant unsee that lmao
I would just like to point out that Elephant-Mario looks basically exactly like "Benjamin Blümchen", a character from a (German?) kids cartoon from a few decades ago 😁. Like, I grew up with that guy to some extent even though it has been long running since then already. Apparently Wikipedia also has an English article for it (Benjamin the Elephant), but as far as I understood, there were never English dubs 🤔
just what I thought! it took me a while to figure out why the sculpture looks so familiar 😂 I had a Benjamin Blümchen cake for my birthday this week :D (I turned 20...)
@@niki_0107 Happy belated birthday and welcome to the 20s, rip 😂 (coming from a 22½ y/o)! And hell yeah for meeting a fellow German😎. Mate, you go get that Benjamin Blümchen cake! It's honestly so good! Even my mum had it for her 50th or so xD. The cat seemed to like it too. We left in on the table to defrost and all of us (mum, bro and I) thought one of us had a little taste of it and didn't think any of it. Until we later talked about it and everyone was like "I thought one of you dipped your finger and had some". Yup. The cat licked it 😂. But seriously, I love that cake, and I find it even better after they apparently changed the recipe a bit (less sweet and other stuff, I think 🤔)
@@anthonyjames696 it was actually still my birthday when I posted that comment, so you're not late! thank you :D
I was literally scrolling the comments just to find that comment 😂 once you see the resemblance you can’t ignore it anymore. Greetings from another German
OMG this is so Nathan from @Drawfee coded!! I would LOVE to see you sculpt one of Julia's PokéMen. Please, bring us a realistic Spheal.
Haha. I just made an elephant this week, too. Horton from Horton Hears A Who.
But he's in a straitjacket. I call it Horton Hears A Voice.
I never realized this before but this elephant Mario reminds me of a German cartoon character called Benjamin Blümchen. He's an elephant with the same kind of red hat, a red shirt and blue jeans so basically the same color scheme lol
It would be really cool to see Adam make a diorama of the ballet scene in twilight 😂
Ah, the newest comment so far. How do you feel?
Hey adam, long time viewer first time commenter, idk and idc if this gets to ya but i wanna say great job on all the satisfying videos you give us. it inspires me to use clay myself to make some models! thanks for always being a huge inspiration with your incredible talents!
I used to do percussion, so you saying you were practicing your paradiddles on the base brought back memories
I was partially expecting a realistic elephant wearing Mario's clothes and mustache.
I really, really hoped Adam would make this.
Why isn't it uncanny and realistic
I'm reminded of my Old Man, asking me, "you want to play Mario, on the 'entendo'?" I can't not forgive you for the lack of wormy dealie things. Tears of joy
Hey
“That goomba looks so serene” lol
Me
Your first
This may sound horrendously stupid, but Adam every Friday I am so thankful for your content.
After school/work on Fridays, me and my family sit down on our couches for dinner and mum asks if we can watch the “wormy dealie” guy.
I have trouble connecting with my family because of my autism, so I’m glad it’s a time we can all come together and watch a guy make tiny nerdy things on the internet. 🐘
as a german the first thing I thought when I saw this form was: Benjamin Blümchen - I grew up with a talking elephant in those overalls xD
Im happy to see something that isnt cursed again. Feels like its been awhile since we saw something that wasnt insanely cursed nightmare fuel
That's one elepha-Mario sculpture if I've ever seen one... Yeah, my kids hate my jokes too.
Elephant Mario was instantly so damn iconic
Adam absolutely made all the facial details first before the trunk on purpose!
Why doesn't anyone remember what Mario's overalls look like on the back??? It has a sort of X shape. But it turned out really good!!! Very well done, I think one of the best so far!
A lot of the stuff you do reminds me of what I do when painting warhammer and making terrain. If you ever made a WH40K video I would lose my mind, and I'm sure I wouldn't be the only one
This is really cool, love how he turned out. And since we're on the Mario theme, Dry Bowser or Petey Piranha would be cool sculptures to see in your style
You are getting way too good at this buddy. Like, you make this look so easy. You've definitely perfected your craft and its so much fun to watch. So freakin cool
9:33 "as the kids say, 'you only YOLO once.'" 😂😂😂😂
This is the Mario we needed in the movie.
that mario song remix and the end really is a banger tho
DUDE PARADIDDLES LETS GOOOOO they were pretty damn good too!! esp for doing them with metal ball styluses on uncured clay, props my man.
The elephant without a trunk looks eerily similar to the Brazilian children's character Fofão. Look him up. It's terrifying.
In typical Adam fashion, he tried to make a joyous Mario run into Mario about to turn your lights out. I bet it's subconscious for him.
making normal non-cursed sculptures is more cursed than any cursed sculpture you've made
Maybe for next week you could do something from Nimona. Seems right up your alley. Huge creature with a guy next to it? Could do like her Rhino form, ramming some random goons with Ballister next to her, or on her back
This turned out absolutely adorable
I'm all about more Mario content, maybe realistic Peach hiding from Mario with an humanized Bowser?
