Gonna try this with some dollar tree mini pumkins and if it comes out well put them on my fence posts.
YES!! That will definitely look AWESOME!! 🤘🎃🤘
awesome tutorial. I loved the music and the laid-back vibe. that mould looks so real!
Thank you. I think the mold adds a fun twist 🤘 you should check out his channel (the music). I love to support the local bands!
i respect this more being posted in september
I figured I have to give people time to make the stuff before October! 👍
This turned out awesome!! Thanks for inspiration
Thank you so much! And thank for watching 🤘🎃🤘
one of the best videos I've seen on rotting a pumpkin! one suggestion, instead of spray foam, which is difficult to control, you can use water and gorilla glue, which has the same effect but its easier to control.
Thank you!! That really means a lot to me! I will try the glue method on a future project! Thanks for the tip 🤘🎃🤘
Yeah that grody white stuff that grows on rotten pumpkins is called mold. 😊
Looks awesome! Thanks for the video man
Thanks for watching 🤘💀🤘
Fantastic pumpkin king head!!! Really enjoyed watching it come to life. You know, you can use a spray bottle with regular water in it and lightly mist the spray foam immediately after you apply it and then wet your hands and actually shape it with your hands, smooth it and use the back end of a paint brush as wekk to further "sculpt" your spray foam before it dries completely. I watched a few other people use this method, it saves you from having to shave it off and it will continue to expand after you shape it which makes it look natural and still puffs up. Also, If you use Lock Tight, you can do the same as I mentioned above, nut you can also use the heat gun to make it soft again and re shape it after it dries! It allows you to really sculpt ANY shape with the foam! I even saw one guy take clear wrap and put that down then trace out wolf ear shapes and fill them in like 3D printing and let them dry then hot glue them to the pumpkin or mask, You need to wet down the plastic sheeting on your table first to avoid sticking and wet your hands as well often while shaping. The guy I saw do this is on a channel called Stiltbeaststudios. Great work!!
Thank you! I did use the sculpting method a bit to make a Jacob Marley door knocker in another video. Check it out! It turned out pretty cool! Great tips for future projects 🤘
That white fuzzy stuff that grows on rotting pumpkins is actually mold btw! I also grow pumpkins and other plants every year and sometimes... You get mold which ain't good! And moss... Last I checked doesn't actually grow on pumpkins, it usually takes much longer to grow than the pumpkin itself lasts. I live in the woods as well and studies a lot of different things.
@@BRMakesStuff I never said that it matters, but I was mentioning certain things that I happen to know. What's your point?
@@BRMakesStuff I was simply answering the questions they had in the video. I'm just going to say that you came off quite rude when I was simply answering some questions.
Love the videos! Keep ‘em coming! 💀🎃🦇👻
Great video! I subscribed and can't wait for more content.
Awesome thank you! 🤘🎃
very creepy pumpkin!!
BTW? you have beautiful
hands!! God bless
Thank you 🤗 and thank you for watching!
Very cool tutorial! Loved your process! Awesome just awesome! Just subbed going to watch some of your other videos!
Thank you! I really appreciate that!!
Wow all those layers and it really came together. I personally wouldn’t use spray foam bcuz of toxicity. But awesome rotten pumpkin! Subscribing to see what’s next
Well, I would not recommend eating it 😜 But as with any other material including paint and even some glue...make sure you have plenty of ventilation. These are such small quantities of foam...it's not like filling an entire attic.
Looks great, thanks for sharing. Love the Avacado Green for pumpkins!
Thank you so much!!! I really think that Avocado green brings out the earthly colors needed for sure! Thanks for the feedback 🤘🎃🤘
I've never thought about a rotting pumpkin but this is definitely a great idea. 🎃.
Glad to help out! Keep it spooky, keep em rotten 🤘🎃🤘
Just stumbled across your channel and love this idea!! Great video! Subscribed!!
Awesome! Welcome to the channel! And thank you so much Stanknstabby! 🤘
MOLD!!!!!!
Mold, scum, grime, and everything creepy that may create a rotten pumpkin creature from the depths of despair muwahahahha 🤘💀🤘
Great vid! Do you happen to have a link to where you got one that size? I have been looking online, but they all seem kinda small compared to that one. Thx!
I got one at a craft store end of season sale last year. But here are a few.:

Is there anything that can be used instead of the latex for people who can't use it?
That is a fantastic question and perhaps one I should cover in the future!! Latex can definitely have its drawbacks especially when allergies are involved. A few alternatives may include
- Elmer's glue or a white glue. It's not quite as durable as liquid latex but still very useful. Your best alternative for sure!
- There are makeup type waxes that can be liquefied using water warmed over 40 degrees, I have never personally used a wax but I have heard they can be quite useful, however they may be messy
- spirit gum could also work, but it's extremely sticky.
I will have to check out a few other alternatives.
@@crazyspookscreations thank you so much! I'll have to look into these
And I just found your channel today but I think a video on alternatives would be quite interesting. I'm sure different alternatives would work differently depending on the application or the type of project
@@craftydemon529 thank you so much for the response. I will do a bit of research and reach out again 🤘
So if I can't use the latex how bout Elmer's school glue or wood glue ???
Elmer's glue or white glue is your best alternative. Wood glue may dry yellowish as opposed to clear, but when it comes to Halloween props...that is not necessarily a bad thing! It is really just to keep the weaker points in the plastic from snapping off. And it does help protect it from the weather elements a bit. Where I live, Fall months can be anything from beautiful, to windy, rainy and even snow some years!
it's a soldering iron, not a hot knife.
You are correct. The attachment tip I used was part of the hot knife set (there are different tip sets you can buy). I probably should have been way clearer on that. I will clarify in the future. Thank you for catching that. I don't want to give any bad info out. Keep haunting my friend!

That’s rotten
Lol indeed 😉
16:46 moss, I watched a video where a gal took a porcelain doll apart and made the head into a planter- putting green moss in the eye sockets was extra creepy.
14:14 if you made the mouth big enough for a candle 🕯️ battery tealite It could look cool?
I put one of the pumpkin lights inside on Halloween. It really looked cool! Loving the ideas
8:22 would it be alight to use modpodge not latex? What does eve latex do?
Yes mod podge works amazing! I did a whole separate video on latex alternatives. It's mostly to strengthen the plastic so it stays in place even with the weather hitting it

Love that!!
