Jesus - I never thought of using Lego as mould holder - that's freaking genius
IKR? I'm a costume and props crafter yet I get so many unique ideas from him.
WWJD??
@friendly neighborhood cruel injun He told me he doesn't mind.
Plus you get to have fun building with lego.
I've had better use with the older legos , the newer ones aren't as precise? So they tend to leak more.
Also you can use toilet paper tubes for long pieces, making them a 1 cut mold :)
Literally nothing better than getting a notification from Monster Tutorials first thing in the morning B)

Ditto that !
So that's why craft stores sell Legos? Will be doing this. Cool.
They sell em for LEGO model enthusiasts who need extra bricks for projects but definitely do that, it looks helpfull
I don't know which is creepier, the eyes following you, or him taking the face off of that mannequins head. 😂 Fantastic tutorial!
agree. totally creepy!
These just blew my mind. As someone who would have no problem keeping halloween around all year, I always look forward to your videos. I wont have time to make these this year :-( I made a couple of your props from last halloween but now between working, homeschooling, and everything else, it would be alot easier for me to just purchase these. I will keep a lookout for when they are available :-)
I once got a ping-pong ball, split it, and placed a glass marble in each half to get the same desired result. Granted the marbles weren't the exact fit, but it still did the job. I like how clean this looks.
Good job 👏👏👏
Ive only seen these in fursuits!! So fun to see them in props :)
Very nice job on these what a fun project. I really enjoyed watching while being watched. 🤣 Another great video from Monster Tutorials. Thanks for taking us along on this project. 👍
Have you thought about making Follow-me head busts like those at Disneyland's Haunted House? They use a reverse cast (or hollow) head inset in a cove (so you don't see past a certain point) to create that effect. And second question: Would a reverse cast of an eye also work as a follow-me eye? The eye really needs an iris to make it look more realistic... could a reversed eye do that?
Honestly... the more I think about it... how would you make a hollow head casting? Sound like it _should_ be easy . . . but I'll bet it isn't. -- And the entire head following you is perhaps more creepy than just the eyes?
Not that difficult. It’s the same process of making a plaster mold for latex masks from a clay sculpture. The resulting mold is a reverse cast.
@@MonsterTutorials Yes, I can picture that, but then there's got to be more to it, painting, etc... making the hollow head has to be displayed at a special angle, etc... besides I haven't been able to find a tutorial on it! Maybe you can make one? 😁 I think the effect is amazing, I have always been into Halloween haunted houses, special effects, and prop making ... At 12 years old our family went to Disneyland and I couldn't wait to get into the Haunted Mansion. I was taking a lot of mental notes lingering behind the crowds in the hallway trying to figure how they made the effects... (1) The lightning effects on the paintings (Still want to do that) and (2) those silly busts - At first I thought they had them on motors and were tracking me in a control room, but when I ducked down or walked quickly back and forth, they flawlessly followed me... I couldn't figure out how they had done that... now I know!!! (Of course the ballroom Pepper Ghost and the floating head are neat too) but I'll stick to the first two props since I think I could possibly make those... well, maybe...
Ray Mitchell This is super basic, but it covers the important points. Also, you can just get a cheap vacuum-formed Halloween mask and use the inside, instead of taking a head cast.

@@seandevine3695 Yes, this is the sort of stuff I'm looking for, this get's you the hollow head, I am thinking of using a Styrofoam head as a form... Also I was thinking of using something other than plaster of Paris, Allen Hopps, (Stiltbeast studios) uses a few plasters, such as Hydrocal-30, to make his mask molds more durable (he doesn't recommend Plaster of Paris) -- This tutorial is very good, it helps, but it is not a finished "product: like those busts in the haunted mansion at Disneyland, to duplicate that effect there are more steps such as trimming the edges but will that weaken the hollow head? That's why I was thinking Hydrocal-30? And maybe painting black the reversed (the positive) side up to the edge you don't want visible, and I know from my research that (A) you need to up-light it to make it look like it is lit from above, (B) they need to be displayed inset into a cove (or something) to prevent seeing them from the angle that will give away the illusion, and maybe there are more details to this?
I have always wondered about the follow me eyes. Now I know. I SO love the Lego mould holder. I had to tell my kid. I love legos
I know nothing about this and will never do it but I am entertained.
Same
Im screaming!!! Let the 2020 halloween season begin!!( Not like it ever really leaves my house).🖤
Easier way to figure out the amount of resin: fill with rice to top of spheres. Dump into container. Draw line on outside of container. Uaing 1:1 resin, divide in 1/2.
Sand better
Holy shit!! Those eyes really do follow you. That’s crazy. They look like they are animatronic or something powered!
OG PROBMOB.
These are awesome! I can't wait to make some for myself.
And the LEGO mold, very creative!!! You never cease to amaze me!!!
~OGPM
THIS IS SO COOL!
This has become like my sense of calm! You’re so thoroughly detailed and organized you always make it seem so flawless! Nice work 👍🏻
👍🏻 you are a good teacher. Thank you for sharing.
LEGO MOLD?!?!?! Brilliant!!
I'm curious, would the effect still work if you gave the eyes a different pupil shape, like a cat's eye?
Yup!
Using Lego to make a shutter for the clay was a genius idea!
Love your videos!
Hell yeah! I am all about this
Very cool , thanks for the demonstration.
Using the Legos for the mold walls was brilliant! Also helps to get kids engaged!
That was cool idea. Thanks for the tutorial.
Dude! Thank you for this. I’m making some for an attack puppet. I used yellow paint for the background. It’s a trip. Tap plastics also sells acrylic half spheres.
Lego as a mould. You fucking genius.
A wise man with a good mustache. Subbed
That was an easy subscribe hit. Amazing channel man!
Can you add glow in the dark dye to the resin?
I have used glow in the dark nail polish before the white paint, but not in the resin. Works great!
@@MonsterTutorials Right on!!great work brother!
I also thought about LED's ?
I was just about to ask this question. I would LOVE to add some follow me eyes to my grave yard skeleton this year but I want them to be visible at night
@@k.devlyn5398 Ikr me and my lil one's put up a bunch of monster scarecrows last year gonna do it better this year lol!
Great job!!! I am a ghoul myself. Love making props for Halloween. You look like someone I could easily hang out with. Thank you for all your videos.
Him: * peels off Mannequin’s face *
Me: what?
Legos as a mold!!!! What sorcery is this!!!! Pure genius 🧐 I’m so going to make these I have been wondering how these were done!! Thank you for sharing!!!😬
Try using a butane torch to polish/clarify the epoxy eye prior to wet polish.
DUDE THIS IS AWESOME
Thanks for the video! I made moving eyes for a Ghostbusters Slimmer costume. And I used the half dome and they kinda followed you. And the reason is they were mounted on the surface and not internally. Thanks!
Love your videos, but you need to wear ppe for lungs with any resin. I want to see many more videos, im a fan.
Years ago, I had a wooden tribal mask with eye holes and I wanted to attach it to a tree but I didn't want to run fasteners through it. I solved this problem by using large washers fastened to the inside of the eye holes and I drove black screws into the washers to attach the mask to the tree. The screw heads were recessed into the eyes and would appear to follow you, I loved this effect but it really creeped out my friends.
A fast way to shine up a cloudy clear casting is to spray with a clear coat. Saves on a ton of sanding and does virtually the same thing.
Furries: I’ll take your entire stock
Yay you are back!
I just have two things to say- that’s so cool and your mustache is amazing
Filling up the Eyes tray.
The eyes have it 👀 Awesome tutorial, thanks for some excellent eye-deas
Awesome tutorial! I wonder how it would look if you left the eye unpainted or used a transparent paint with backlighting inside the head.
Thank You For Sharing!!!! You come up with such Amazing ideas!!!!🎃👍😎
Thank you. You are so humble and I am so excited to try this. You have given me tons of new ideas and using the legos, i agree, genius! Your awesome!
I’m a new subscriber & have been binge watching your tutorials nonstop! I’m about to venture over to your website Sir because you are super talented! I need the silence of the lambs moth, the creepy face mask & several sets of these eye balls to place in areas all over my home. Your videos are absolutely amazing!!! Thank you so much for sharing! Peace and blessings unto you 🤩✌🏽
Thank you for sharing your knowledge! What a cool effect...
I’ve seen people paint a thin layer of epoxy over their epoxy casting to give it that shine. It might be less labor intensive than sanding it clean.
I highly suggest some silicone mixing cups for you. Much less wasted resin and to clean you just wipe them out or leave a stick in and let it cure and pop it out later.
Amazing job! I’ll be watching your store for them!
That second mask is me when I get a new piece of cool loot in any video gane
Know I know Halloween is coming!
What a great tutorial! We loved how you showed the process and every step along the way. Great work!!! Can't wait for you to scare some people with the props when they are outside, haha!
Love your videos! Can't wait to see your Halloween stuff.
Awesome, congratulations on your work!
They sell that mold at Hobby Lobby for 1.99 in the baking section. It's a lot cheaper than buying the mold products. Those run from 9.99 to 19.99.
This is really awesome
Make some more please and I will purchase them :)
thank you, man!
That is effective and uncanny, Monster Maker!
Great work. Keep up the good job.
That clown is freaking wicked
You have defenitely mastered eyes, try Smooth On 20T silicone. 30 minutes cure then right to casting.
Wow amazing. These are so cool.
How would you put them in a skull?
Very cool and creepy!!
Surgery!!!!! DO it! I love this video and creepy eyes are fun. I like you showing how to make them. XOXO
I'll buy, but I can't find them on your store. Can you send a link?
Very cool !
That is so cool!!!!!
Go to 7:55 if you already have round moulds and want to see how to make just the eyes. The first 7.5 minutes of the video is him making a mould (which technically, you could buy at Michael's and not make from scratch.)
If you remade the mold, it should work. I’m guessing that the reason it was hazy was from your first casting which did not cure. The uncured resin probably left a thin film inside and when the mold finally cured the finish was no longer smooth. Hope that makes sense. At least that’s my guess at what happened. Great tutorial!!!! Plan on making a few eyes for creatures.
Legendary mustache
That is so cool! You're a master genius, guapo!
28mm silicone sphere mold
Genius
Good Video Thanks
Wow !
Great!
@monstertutorials you should try to make a chucky head from child's play that would be awesome
That is so creepy COOL 💀💀💀
Last year I got the life size zombie horse at home depot for 98$! 1 week after Halloween 🎃!
Dude you used the crazy hamburger thing
Wonder what it would look like with a larger blood red pupil.
I started this video and automatically called it
Hi Eduardo I love this video one question have you used the Is the follow me eyes on a mask where you could wear it ?
Cool
hello ' tutorial happy summer ... you love the r.e.m. !
You mentioned you'd add a link for the small sanding pads -- I'd like to get some!
Where do I purchase one of those pressure cookers? Thanks for sharing
Looooove this! Thanks for the info ! ☠
have you been watchin the craftman ?...nah ,i see folks use lego,s before.I,m poor ,i use foamboard.Whatever works : ) . Great eyes !
Is there anyway I can make this for a mask for my Halloween mask?
Ur awesome.
What if you use glow in the dark acrylic paint instead of the white paint? Will the effect work with the lights off?
17:51 That's Brian May!
