- This is definitely the weirdest project I ever made. Here I try my hand at coil-building and figure sculpting a gargoyle for the Great Pottery Throwdown episode 5 challenge! He may have ended up looking more like a garden gnome than a gargoyle, but I like him all the same :) Let me know what you think in the comments below!

Totally adorable gnome! Not so scary, but I think he’ll take good care of your garden😊
I’m expecting a 50% greater harvest this year with him watching ❤️
So gorgeous, love your little goat gnome gargoyle!
I love this strange creature, very Pan. You did the eyes really well, eyes on ceramic sculpture can be a bit hit and miss. This creature has kind eyes.
Watching you (and also Throwdown) has got me so enthusiastic for pottery again. I put it aside these last few years due to moving house a lot, and workshop time at my local pottery almost doubled in price, but now I'm confident to do my own thing and my first task back into it will be a set of feature tiles for my new house - thanks for your recent tiles video and all your content!
yay! I’m glad to hear you getting back to it! Pricing are going up everywhere 😵💫 maybe you can make at home and just rent their kilns?
I also love goats, they're pretty great! Love doggo's reaction, what this?? I would absolutely love to see this little guy in a few years time, after he's weathered a few winters. I bet he'll grow moss.
yes!! i put him on a mossy patch so I really hope he grows some in time :)
I really like the tail too. This is living. Oddly amazing.
I really like the tail too. This is living. kind of oddly amazing.
He looks amazing! I want one for my garden now.
yess! i want to make a cute one now 😆
I love it so much 😂 this series is so fun to watch!
thanks! i love him too haha :)
I think that this is my favourite of the throwdown series!
thank you! 🥰 it was fun for me too
I love goats as well so I'm finding him quite adorable
He’s so freaking cute!! I love him!
In addition to the technical details, you do an excellent job walking us through your thought process. He looks great in your yard. Thank you.
Your goat muzzle is excellent. Really tied the gargoyle together.
It makes my day when you post!
aww that is so nice to hear 🥰🥰
I love him. He’s amazing.
Oh I'm so excited to see your next video in the series. I've been patiently waiting! Thank you 🙏 I'm excited to watch you and your new creation 😍
**UPDATE**
He's adorable!! 🥰 I love how he became ❤ you did a great job with adapting while creating 🎉 you've inspired me to try to make one for my own garden 🏡 I'll tag you when I am able to make mine.
😊🎨 Art'On 🎨😊
please do! i want to make more gnomes now haha maybe cuter ones this time though 😄
OMGeeee I just love him and all your projects!!! 🫶🏼
my favourite project so far - how fun!
thank you! it was fun to make 😄
He turned out so good! I love him!
It's such a great gargoyle! I loved it when you had it covered halfway in plastic. Looked like a cute demon goat in a raincoat.
hahaha i love how he looks at 20:00 when hes in his lil outfit
He’s so quirky!! Wonderful. Can’t wait for the next episode!
thanks! it’ll probably be up in 3 weeks :)
Turned out great!
You can build a coil horn holder and add the horns after firing.
OMG! I absolutely love him!!! ❤😊
Thanks for sharing. It was great to watch !!
This is so adorable. I've been in grad school and sooooo busy but I can't wait to get back to pottery. It's so enjoyable. I'm living vicariously through u.
hope you can get back to it soon! thanks for watching ❤️
I have loved watching you do these challenges. I hope you will do more as it seems you’re up to other really neat things lately 😃
Gorgeous!!
So cute! And I love the texture!
thank you! yes the texture really saved it 😆
He’s just wonderful
i love this piece, it's so charming. I recently attempted a few smaller sculptural pieces and did suffer cracks. So nice to see this one come out without any!
Not scary! Super cute!❤
This came out amazing!
thank you!! ❤️
Love your little buddy!
Lol so cute not scary at all 😂 maybe angry eyes or some sharp fangs would have made him scarier or claws instead of hands but who cares?? Absolutely adorable 🥰
Im obsessed with him! Would love to see you make more stuff like this. Also remember not to let him freeze!
That looks really cool. Wouldn't it look even cooler if it had marble green eyes with the goat like pupil. 🐐🐐🐐
Love this!!!
To be honest, I didn’t like it at all at the beginning when you started constructing it. But as you progressed and put in all the texture details and arms and etc, I loved it! Especially it’s final version is I think super cute- not scary at all. But it is true that it’s a weirdo 😂 Great job as always and I love watching your videos!
thank you! yes it was a very TRUST THE PROCESS moment 😂😂 I’m glad you liked the little weirdo in the end though ☺️
It definitely gives me the creeps! Well done!
I first had to look up what a gargoyle is😂, have never heart this before. Buh, they look scary…., my cats would never come home 😢, but yours is a cute one which I would allow to live in my garden . As always: loved to watch you working. Thank you for the great time!
Fabulous 🤩
oaau i love this!👏 super cool project
thank you! it was fun!
What a great garden protector
I like him. Everyone should have a garden goat-goyle
Hes cute, he actually looks remarkably like a sand creature that could grant wishes from a british tv show called 5 children and it. 😊
Adorable ❤
Love it!
He is gorgeous!!!
aww thank you :)
Very cute. Be interested to see how he weathers out there for a while.
I LOVE HIM
HE’S SO CUTE
Very Nice!
He is a cute little Gnomer.
Bunny the gargoat 😊
So cool
He's so cute!
thank you! ❤️
I used black iron oxide yesterday for the first time. I’m excited to see how it turns out. Keep up the great work!
yuhu! thanks for watching!
when I stayed in Germany I used exactly that yellow groggy clay and it is so great ! Very plastic.
Gotta love a garden devil
I loved watching the show but don’t know where to watch it now.
adorable
He turned out so good. I love his tail and the little horns. But you didn’t name him.
I love him.
thank you!
What a cutie, reminds me of Toriel from Undertale
Looks great, looks like a goat ❤
He kinda looks like the creatures from Where The Wild Things Are!
Hi Mia, I'm VERY new to pottery. Just wondering why you would use coils for this project instead of slab? Berni from Australia 🙂
I was reading the comments before Watch the vídeo and I was thinking about the comments: “is that possible that a gargoyle to be cute?” And them i Watch the vídeo 🤣🤣🤣 very cute! Sorry
hahaha i really tried making it scary I swear 😂😂😂
Very cool. He looks like he belongs outside under the tree.
he’s very happy outside and hopefully he will grow some moss someday :)
I kept thinking that the nipples were in the wrong place, and it needed udders down below. "D'Oh!" I forgot that billy goats don't have udders. It turned out cuter than it started out, but what was I expecting, it wasn't finished yet?!
omg! i really did miss a row of nipples beneath his hands though 😅 i only noticed afterwards!
He’s very cute
My (one) experience with black iron oxide was that it turned red from firing. Should I expect different at higher temps?
Are you sure you weren’t using red iron oxide? Honestly I’m not sure I’ve just begun experimenting with it. I’m sure temp has something to do with it though.
@@PotterytothePeople I'll have to do some more experienting. It was the black variety. I've splashed it on a number of pots as yet unfired. I'll see what happens and let you know ;)
I guess black iron oxide will give you black or dark gray as long as there is some manganese included. DigitalFire did some experiments where some "synthetic" black iron oxides come out maroon. "Some form of manganese is needed to get an affordable black burning clay," they say.
How come you don't use slip when you join parts?
no need when the clay is so wet ☺️
It’s a rabbonkey
sorry, not scary.. but.. it looks great and i enjoyed the video.. thanks👍
hahah i really tried 😂😂 thanks for watching ❤️
At what height is your extruder?
Please i beg you to make it a little baby to put next to it
🙏 🙏
:)) LOL
gargnome
you could call it a gardengoyle.
i don't know if anyone has made that joke
i love you, but i hate that thing
hahahha ❤️
you think people in a thousand years think we worshiped this creature?
A wingless friend-shaped gargoyle.
This gargoyle can't fly, so he doesn't perch on top of buildings and chooses the ground instead. He is too young for the big job of scare away evil spirits, instead the friendly demeanour encourages garden spirits to be nice and treat your garden respectfully.
Not a real gargoyle as his mouth is shut and no water can run through...Nice gnome though...
haha yes its a garden gnome gargoyle. 😄
I just gnome your sculpture will be so scary that I just could bear to look at it....
Sorry 😊
😆😆
Your title is messed up. It should be “I’m on” not “on I’m”.
omg thank you 😂🤦♀️
Lol I'm getting all stressed out about the size! 😅😅
yes! i am constantly worried about things fitting in my kiln 😭
@Pottery to the People I worked in a pottery studio for a time. We had 2 much deeper kilns. (Your original idea would have fit easily.) But there were definitely times when we had to be mindful about the size of pieces.
@@ixchelssong, I'd definitely have to ask my studio owner if something of this size would be acceptable even though they have 2 kilns, (one is huge and the other is slightly smaller). Don't want to hog the kiln. 😆
