Found this tutorial and decided to make it, materials cost me $269, the paint, flanges and dust covers cost the most, but we’re so proud of how ours turned out, she’ll be the star of Halloween!
@@IsaacAlexanderDIY Of course I’ll send it to you now, luckily I just moved into my new build and homes are still being built, so we grabbed wood and styrofoam to build the Tombstone for free 👍🏻
I couldn't resist, I had to try this one, and even though I had no clue what I was doing, I followed this to a 't' and my word, it's fantastic!!!! The neighbors have been gawking at it since it went out. You are a brilliant teacher at these!!!! Thank you for leading me through what will most likely be my favorite Halloween decoration for years.
This is so awesome! I’m so happy you made one as well! I’m happy I could help! Would love to see how it came out. If you’d like to share pics my Facebook is named the same as my CZcams
Another option instead Monster Mud .. is trailer bed spray. They are used for protecting pick up truck trailer beds. So I sprayed it on the drop cloths. A bonus - they are totally fine for the inclement weather … it holds in place very quickly & easy to spray paint over. (I find mixing monster mud is time consuming & wasteful). Spray bed liner works great. (Just suggesting another option )
The spray on bed liner foam holds in place & is very rigid. I find it immensely effective and easier to use then mixing up Monster mud. It’s comes in a spray can and of course is totally water proof (since it’s made to protect pick up truck bed liners ). So just spray it in the position that you want … it’s dries super fast & spray paint it after ! Done
@@TellyRemandecheck my latest comment. Sorry it went to a different message string. It holds in place & is so much easier to use & less heavy once sprayed on. Can find it anywhere. Walmart or Home Depot.
A beautiful work of art, Isaac. 😮 So incredibly realistic, especially the tombstone! 🪦 Your attention to detail is beyond compare, dude. Using the Loctite spray adhesive for the spider web is brilliant! 🕸 I’m amazed at your skill and precision! 🤯 Thanks so much for sharing your talents!
She is absolutely gorgeous!!! I am so thankful I found you on TikTok. You gained another follower on both platforms. I love the way you do not gatekeep your creations. Please never stop creating your amazing works of art doll. Happy, spooky season to you.
Thank you so much for this kind comment! I definitely don’t want to gatekeep and love being able to show others how to make their own decorations! Thank you for subscribing!
So everyone interested in doing this project, it's pretty fantastic to do. I'm currently in the middle of completing my version but I have a few things to say. If you don't have these scrap materials around it can get quite costly. All things purchased at home depot besides the tools I already had and scrap wood and bucket I had laying around I spent a little over $200 to do this. Just giving a heads because I didn't realize how much things were till I was in the middle of picking up all the materials and wanted to follow through with it. Regardless, when it's done it will be a rewarding project and you can resuse again for next season. Excited to finish this and move on to the next thing! Cheers!
Your mastery of choosing from among different techniques is evolving. After watching your videos over time, I love how every new creation builds on knowledge obtained from previous projects.
I saw your video and it motivated me to build one for my own Halloween decoration. I then showed it to my college. We decided to build them with our classes. I thought you would like to hear that your art inspired a school project in Germany.
I just love watching these videos!!! I will never make any of these things, cause I dont have room to store them... But it is very interesting to see you make these awesome creations!
Mr. Isaac Alexander! I’ve been watching you for a while now and I must say all your creativity is bountiful and amazing!! Since I love the art of filmmaking, your ideas help me to start building set designs 😏🙏🏼 And even create things for halloween 🎃
I love this design so much I wish it could be my tomb stone ...not that im wanting to kick the bucket anytime soon. I think it's a beautiful work of art! ❤
Great Stuff foam is a great sculpting material. just a quick tip, after 4 minutes, try spraing the surface with water (I just use a spary bottle) and you can just push the parts protruding too far into place. I love the concept! Very creative, and thanks for the monster mud recipie!
This was "Hauntingly" Good!! One of the best. The fine details really brought it to life. Better than the things you can buy in the store. Thanks for sharing your creativity!
I’ve made many PVC framed characters over the years but I stopped gluing them together by year two. I tape all the joints and am able to take it all apart for flat storage
Very impressive. I can appreciate the artwork that went into this. Although, I don't celebrate Halloween. I did, however, send it to some of my friends that do celebrate. JOB WELL DONE
Thank you so much ! I built two large sheds, I have a tall deck that provides storage space underneath it (20ft x 10ft), a walk-in crawlspace, and an offsite large unit
Wow this one is so scary , looks creepy , I love her! Good job . The trick of the adhesive is new to me , very cool . Thank you for sharing all your tips.
I always love all the details of your projects. But i know if I turned around in the dark and saw this I’d be startled lol. Next year I’m gonna come visit and see it in person!
Amazing! I started making my own monsters last year. I don't quite know what I'm doing yet, but I love making Halloween props, might try to make this someday. Pretty good video, I think I could make my own version. Probably not this year, busy with the monsters I already started but its something to put on the list.
Not only are you gorgeous, you are so amazingly talented……a TRUE MASTER!! She is absolutely beautiful…….a gorgeous masterpiece!! Thank you so very much for sharing your wonderful talents with us!!! 🙏❤️😍
This really is something quite extraordinary. So much so, that i bought everything needed and I'm about to try and replicate it myself. Don't think I have ever felt so nervous 😬 Great work. Your videos are amazing. Thank you 😊
Sometimes you just have to take that leap and go for it. I had never built anything prior to 2019, but I taught myself how to do it and then I wanted to make sure others could learn as well
Wow, honestly hands down the best diy Halloween skeleton I have ever seen! It's so legitimately creepy but hauntingly "beautiful" at the same time. The saying on the tombstone is so sad as well! Epically cool! ☠️ I think I would want to leave her up year round! 😁
Thank you so much for that! I do agree, it’s creepy but hauntingly beautiful! I came up with the quote for the tombstone while making her. It was so fitting. A beautiful yet tragic tale
How strong are the skelly forearms? They are usually pretty cheaply made, and I'm surprised they can even hold up that hourglass. End result though is beautiful!
I just made this today, and man you make it look easy! Mine isn’t quite as good as yours, but still turned out nice. I used a heat gun to twist his arms and fingers so that he could hold a lantern.
Not to be needy but anyway you could let us know the brands and colors of paint you used, both the gray for the monster mud as well as all the colors for finishing touches on the statue and tombstone sides? And maybe a link for the skeleton you used I’m paranoid I’m gonna get stuff that doesn’t work as well. Lastly does this hold up ok in rain?
I used so many different paints and mixed them together that I couldn’t tell you what colors I m used, it’s up to the creator to come up with whatever color they want. Also, the skeleton I bought are from Home Depot but they sell them in a six pack online so they don’t come individually - unless you buy them in store. You can’t go wrong by mixing different types of grays, browns and greens, it’s supposed to look weathered and old, so it doesn’t really matter what color gray you use.
Is it weird to say that I had tears in my eyes at the finished product? 😊Love her! She's absolutely beautiful Isaac! HALLOWEEN IS COMING!💀🎃👻
This just made my heart smile. I can totally understand the emotion. She’s a special one for sure. Thank you for your kind comment
I think its the posture of the skeleton and the cloak is just perfect. Amazing job.
What's the rough costs $200?
Yes it’s weird. You need a life.
Yes, that is weird.
Great design concept. Also, Locktight spider webs! Doh, of course. 🤦♂️ That tip alone was worth the price of admission.
Thank you so much! Glad you liked that tip
Brilliant idea, indeed!!! I’m using that on the decorations by the trees in our front garden instead of that wretched cotton nonsense.
16:38 the quote on the sign gave me chills!
Right?
Found this tutorial and decided to make it, materials cost me $269, the paint, flanges and dust covers cost the most, but we’re so proud of how ours turned out, she’ll be the star of Halloween!
Thanks for the cost analysis, would love to se a picture of you’re creation. I’m on Facebook if you’d like to share it. Isaac Alexander DIY on fb
@@IsaacAlexanderDIY Of course I’ll send it to you now, luckily I just moved into my new build and homes are still being built, so we grabbed wood and styrofoam to build the Tombstone for free 👍🏻
Expensive but compared to basic animatronics worth it plus diy pride I guess. I am not crafty or handy but I’ll prob try this
I want to put this up during Christmas at my parents home. They love Christmas way wayyyyy too much. Halloween FOREVER!
I couldn't resist, I had to try this one, and even though I had no clue what I was doing, I followed this to a 't' and my word, it's fantastic!!!!

Yeah but the monster mud helps to hold everything together once it's dry, no?

I would leave it in my yard year round!
Nestled around a wooded area, with tall trees gives it such a frightful and haunting appearance. Totally cool!!!
you can literally make any statue that you desire. Great idea
Indeed! Countless options
A beautiful work of art, Isaac. 😮
So incredibly realistic, especially the tombstone! 🪦
Your attention to detail is beyond compare, dude. Using the Loctite spray adhesive for the spider web is brilliant! 🕸

What do you mean, "next season?" This is too cool! When I build one, that baby is staying up YEAR ROUND! 🤣🤣🤣
It's still cheaper than if you had to buy 1..I can't fathom how much they would sell this for...
How did it end up turning out?
Your mastery of choosing from among different techniques is evolving. After watching your videos over time, I love how every new creation builds on knowledge obtained from previous projects.
I always Master what’s in front of me
Nice shots at the end with the sunlight. This turned out very well - love the monster mud effect.
I saw your video and it motivated me to build one for my own Halloween decoration. I then showed it to my college. We decided to build them with our classes. I thought you would like to hear that your art inspired a school project in Germany.
Oh wow that’s amazing! So happy you involved the classes
I just love watching these videos!!! I will never make any of these things, cause I dont have room to store them... But it is very interesting to see you make these awesome creations!
Thank you so much! I’m glad you’re able to enjoy them even if you don’t have the space to store them
@IsaacAlexanderDIY you are the best Issac, Kish kish
17:15 the cobwebs!
🕸️
I love ur videos so easy to follow and love that u give exact measurements. I may have to make this. I would love to see u do more videos
Thank you so much! I’m glad you liked it and yes you should try to make this!

I feel the same way ☺️🪦
This takes more than just time and money, it takes talent and vision. You have all 4. Amazing work!
Thank you so much ! that was so kind of you
Man I’m for sure going tomorrow to buy stuff to make this. Me and my four year old are gonna enjoy this build. He loves Halloween
You just got a new subscriber, wow this came out absolutely amazing!
Thank you so much ! and welcome to my channel. Glad you like it 🎉
Breathtaking..can't believe how cool this is
Wow...dude you got serious skills..

Thank you so much! I appreciate the kind words!
I love this so much! I need one for.. I dunno where he'd fit but I know I need one!
Ikr!!! I can move the husband's desk to the porch, and put this in the corner 😂
I love this! My BFF will flip out - then ask if I can make her one! LOL!
@@cuervojones4889 do it! Haha start making one
I’ve made many PVC framed characters over the years but I stopped gluing them together by year two. I tape all the joints and am able to take it all apart for flat storage
Love this tip!
This is fantastic. My only hesitation to make this right now is storage. With all the parts cemented together, seems like it doesn’t break down.
Correct, the statue would have to be stored as one piece, the base would be stored as another
I ordered your book for my nephew's children because his wife actually reads to their children every night it is a very adorable book
Oh my goodness thank you so much! So happy you got the book for them! I’m glad you think it’s adorable 🥹😊😊😊
@IsaacAlexanderDIY Question..if I make the monster mud could I roll layers of it on my cloth carport and harden the top??
Fantastic tutorial and amazing outcome, she looks incredible!
BADASS!!! Love it
Very impressive. I can appreciate the artwork that went into this. Although, I don't celebrate Halloween. I did, however, send it to some of my friends that do celebrate. JOB WELL DONE
I’m super happy that you shared it with other people even though you don’t celebrate Halloween. Hope you have a wonderful week.😊
Just bought 2 of your books and can’t wait to give them to my nephews
Yay! So happy you did! Hope they like it!!
I can't believe all that weight is being held up by a single length of PVC on a single flange :o
I supported it with some 2x4’s until it dried lol
Love all your stuff...can't imagine the amount of storage y'all must need!
Thank you so much ! I built two large sheds, I have a tall deck that provides storage space underneath it (20ft x 10ft), a walk-in crawlspace, and an offsite large unit
Fuck Halloween decorations I want this for my graveyard statue
Me too!
*YES*
It's so beautiful!!!
This was an amazing tutorial. Truly one of the best I've seen, so informative and concise. Thank you! This is Halloween This is Halloween!!
Glad it was helpful! happy Halloween!
Wow this one is so scary , looks creepy , I love her! Good job . The trick of the adhesive is new to me , very cool . Thank you for sharing all your tips.
You’re very welcome!
So freaking amazing I love how this turned out. This is definitely next level
Great work isaac 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

You are a very nice guy. I love the way you speak, so soft and sweet.
Thank you so much ! ☺️☺️☺️
@@IsaacAlexanderDIY It's my pleasure to hear you. Very beautiful voice. By the way, I love the statue. I will try to make one. Thank you 🙌🏻
This will make an "AWESOME" centerpiece for my graveyard. Another great video.
Yess! Hope you make it !
@@IsaacAlexanderDIY Oh, I will
So badass !
a-maz-ing!!! You're an artist, and a gifted one!
Awesome ❤
Mind blown! Amazing!
Awesomeness!❤

Awesome Isaac! So simple to make, yet, looks amazing!
It really is!
Oh man, this is SO great!
Wow, that is a very close version of our statue the Davis Graveyard made over 12 years ago. It does look amazing.
Ooo I haven’t heard of the gentlemen but will go on Google now to see his work and his statue. Thanks for letting me know ☺️🎃
You will be very suprised then :D @@IsaacAlexanderDIY
EPIC!!!!!!!!!!! Can't wait for halloween, great job

I’m in love with this piece! 😍 and holy moly your 🔥🙏
Simply amazing.
the web and the moss detailing are genius it looks so real!!! you absolutely smashed it!!
Thank you so much 😀
You make this look so easy and doable! I always have ideas and too afraid to execute them.
Sometimes you just have to take that leap and go for it. I had never built anything prior to 2019, but I taught myself how to do it and then I wanted to make sure others could learn as well
You should try to make something, you might surprise yourself
Imagine this with one of those 12 foot tall skeletons from Homedepot
Yessssss
So awesome you did such a great job. 🧡🤎💛🍁🍂
That is amazing! My favorite diy ever! You are so talented.
WOW THATS AMAZING 😮😮😮😮😮 You are so talented ❤❤❤❤
Have you considered doing an Easter Island Head with this monster mud mixture.
This is beautiful 🙌🏼
I love your videos!
Thank you! Glad to have you here
Amazing as always man.
Thank you for the tutorial just getting started on making my own Halloween lawn art and videos like this are greatly appreciated

Love the weathered natural environment of this piece. Well done!
How strong are the skelly forearms? They are usually pretty cheaply made, and I'm surprised they can even hold up that hourglass. End result though is beautiful!
The arm isn’t the strongest but it seems to be doing fine so let’s hope it doesn’t break haha
Amazing 😍. Wozluld love to re-create it. Could you tell me if it's weather/ rain proof? Awesome work, thanks for sharing!
Just found your channel.
Absolutely beautiful result!🖤
Really great instructions and inspiration.
Your book showed up yesterday, just wow! thank you
Yay! I’m so happy you got my book! I’m hoping to write a second one next year!
I just made this today, and man you make it look easy! Mine isn’t quite as good as yours, but still turned out nice. I used a heat gun to twist his arms and fingers so that he could hold a lantern.
It’s impressive how you pay attention to every detail in creating this masterpiece! Absolutely love it!
Thank you very much!
Does water reactivate any of the materials? I get a lot of wind and rain where I live.
I was wondering the same thing.
Absolutely love how this came out!!! Your attention to detail is Everything!!!💙
Thank you so much!!
Awesome work as always!
Thank you! Cheers!
Love it. It reminds me of the TERROR SYNDICATE haunt, over a decade ago, that has created some awesome DIY deco for their haunted houses.
Thanks 😊 I need to look them
Up
Not to be needy but anyway you could let us know the brands and colors of paint you used, both the gray for the monster mud as well as all the colors for finishing touches on the statue and tombstone sides?
And maybe a link for the skeleton you used I’m paranoid I’m gonna get stuff that doesn’t work as well.
Lastly does this hold up ok in rain?
I used so many different paints and mixed them together that I couldn’t tell you what colors I m used, it’s up to the creator to come up with whatever color they want. Also, the skeleton I bought are from Home Depot but they sell them in a six pack online so they don’t come individually - unless you buy them in store. You can’t go wrong by mixing different types of grays, browns and greens, it’s supposed to look weathered and old, so it doesn’t really matter what color gray you use.
