LOVE LOVE LOVE IT! Amazing!!! Thank you! So great meeting you and honored to be part of the Doctor’s creations!
Thanks again for the cool Buster head!😃
Very Cool! Reminds me of the Batman villain The Black Mask
Oh yeah! I can totally see that! White suit and all!😃
Thanks 🙏
Slick custom here. Nice trick with the head! Clean and simple, but bad ass !
Thanks as always!😃
Always a good morning when you drop a video. Great build. Your stuff always looks like it walked right out of the toy aisle.
I appreciate that!🙏
Very nice! Love that simple way to get the head to fit on a smaller peg. Ill have to try that out on some of my builds
Thanks as always!😃
I love this simple but really effective. Awesome
Thanks!
Good job 👏 👍
Thank you so much 😀
Looking at this build all I can think of is Black Mask from Batman! Very dapper, but maybe a little evil inside? Excellent work, as always and the 3D printed skull itself is of an amazing quality!
Totally! Someone else mentioned that as well and I totally see it!
Thanks for watching!
Very cool, has a great pulp vibe to it!

How can I get a hold of you?

Dark heroes like Ghost Rider are cool. The white suit looks gentlemanly, but it also conveys fear.💀👍 He is my favorite dark hero character.
I love that! Thanks!
Nice job!👍🙂
Thank you! Cheers!
You are welcome.
Beau custom dommage de ne pas lui avoir peint des dents 👍😊
Hola soy de argentina, me encantan tus videos pero estaría buenísimo si los pudiera ver traducidos al español, gracias por tu arte amigo, saludos.
Sounds good! Let me see if I can/how to do that on CZcams. Thanks for the feedback.❤️
Hotmelt doesn't dry, it cools
Fair enough…😅
I really enjoy your videos and was curious,where is your camera when filming so you can get everything in shot and still see what you're doing?
So I salvaged an old broken desk lamp that has the hinged neck and I bought an iPhone mount and attached it where the lamp was. I position it above my hands about head high so I can still see what I’m working on. I’m using an iPhone 13 Pro Max.
Hope that helps.😃
@@DRToysCreations it looks great thank you
Turned out great. I thought you were going to leave the cane clear.
Thanks!
I can't remember if I asked already, but that puppet on your wall on the right side of the screen, did you make that? Or is it from something. Is cool and catches my attention every time
That’s a piece of art by TN Wolfman. He makes some amazing stuff!
lol, Skullpture
😅
petroleum jelly seems extreme. would an oil like baby oil work or is there a concern for plasticizers interaction or discoloring?
Great question, I’m not sure but it may do the same thing. The jelly gives a nice barrier from the hot glue and the neck joint. If you give it a try with the baby oil I would love to know if it works. Have a great day.
