Making Up My Own HERO Character - Meet "The Owl Guide"

[@aceofclay]

Let me know what you think of The Owl Guide! What do you want to see me make next?? Check me out on TikTok @aceofclay

[@Hibbit]

Its really cool, the effort you put into these videos are insane

[@9ightdreamer]

I think they look great!

[@dragonsfire286]

Alice the tiger guide 🤩 I love tigers so here you go

[@princesscrystalofthejewelw9178]

@@dragonsfire286 sounds cool!

[@brett730]

Your trading card for the Ice Cream Man's truck and the background environments for the other characters on their cards got me thinking... it would be cool to see you create set pieces for the physical characters of your Mutant Universe to interact with.

[@lechatbotte.]

I love the guides, they’re my favorite. The other mutants are delightfully creepy,but these guys are good to have in your corner like a good friend.

[@maleighaelliott4935]

I love the whole concept. Have you thought about a CNA, EMT, Nurse, and/or Doc Mutante? I work in the health field and would love to see what your creative mind would come up with.

[@cookiemon3350]

I can totally see your Characters coming into a horror game at some point

[@dragonsfire286]

Same

[@laurenconradie5328]

This game must become a thing, it would be interesting and thrilling for the player to face the mutants

[@hobbytunez2519]

Well, that makes sense, seeing as this originally started as fan characters for Little Nightmares, but for some reason, I see this more as a TV Series.

[@brianahawkins8124]

The Owl guide is my #1 favorite character out of the Mutant universe, see you next time.💖🦉

[@shelleybarron215]

I love owls and I really like this new character! I remember how I started following you. It was because you had the cute owl figure with those cabochons for eyes. Keep up the great work. I love seeing your progress.

[@morissaedwards7348]

Lol, I was here for the owl with cabacons for eyes. I wanted to make something similar for my mom

[@laurenconradie5328]

This guy really touches my heart, since I work with owls I feel like this is what a Barn owl would look like as a human. He and Whisper are my absolute favorite guides in your collection. I always get excited when I get notifications for a new Ace of Clay video, I spam my friends with links for your work. I'd love to see a guide linked to a sea creature like an otter or something.

[@firelord71]

The design was amazing and I love that you gave him a accessory I wish that you would make a sculpture of the entity I personally would love to see that

[@dragonsfire286]

Me too

[@craigynos7147]

well entity means "a thing with distinct and independent existence" so the fact it doesn't have a clear outline of what it is I too am really interested in what it or they could look like 🥰

[@firelord71]

@@craigynos7147 well no mattr what it's all up to Mr Ace of clay to make it or not but keep going with the other sculptures

[@heartmask2336]

I feel as though the guides could have like a secondary title like the owl guide could be the guide of providence and whisper being the guide of silence

[@dragonsfire286]

OH GOD YOU ARE RIGHT

[@stephenryder8780]

I can imagine the mutant universe as a corpse bride styled Tim Burton movie. That would be awesome

[@BrandoBaggins23]

It’s really remarkable how much cosclay looks like fabric. I’m LOVING Windsor! All of your Guides are freaking amazing (along with each mutant of course 😍)

[@jennylawson1980]

When I said before that I already had a favorite out of your mutant universe well, I was wrong, the Owl Guide is now my #1. I would absolutely cherish an entire clan of guides. Windsor is incredible.

[@aaronmehaffey6251]

LOVE the hood kind of trailing out of the back of the owl mask. I don't know why, it's just a really cool look!

[@tgnben]

I hope there's an animated series about these characters sometime in the future. I feel like you're creating such a great lore and I'd love to see them in action someday.

[@3DPlasticFantasy]

The whole concept of mutant verse with the trading cards looks so awesome, I hope Owl guide will be added into collection.

[@articfox210]

My cat is named Windzor and I've had him for almost 5 years now. This is always how I pictured if he had a persona. Amazing job. 👏🏻

[@BettimusFrostCafe]

I gotta say, I love his silhouette shape. It looks so mysterious and ready for a fight

[@claressadubs]

Windsor! What a good guy. He might be my favorite guide. And his scarf/poncho looks so comfy. 😄

[@dontneedgravitywhereweregoing]

I have a mutant(and/or child sidekick for guide) idea for you Ace. The mutant often appears as a child. It's head however is that of a rabbit. The rabbit's face looks maddened and deranged. Giving the mutant a eerie aura. This mutant is normally passive, often following groups of survivors. Since most of the mutants of this caliber are practically children, it makes sense that they follow groups in search of protection. If they happen to find a weapon (axe, thumbtack, ect.) They will turn on the group. This rarely happens... or so some survivors said once the rabbit mutant's arms were cut off. Most of the Rabbit children wear pajamas. Anyway have a great day.

[@silverwind9964]

I really, really like this guide. I think he's my favorite so far. Maybe because he didn't completely abandon his village after he was changed? Anyway, I think it would be really cool if you'd do a video essentially unmasking the guides. I'd love to know more about who they were before they became guides.

[@jennym.2268]

I absolutely love Winsor the owl guide. I just love his story, so cool! You did a great job on the sculpture and his lore, thanks for the video, I always look forward to them every week. This video made my day!

[@jackieraulerson2005]

Cowl neck for an owl guide. Love your imagination. Nice sculpture. Thank you.

[@alyssamendoza5344]

Every lore time stamp 1:59 5:25 10:36 12:36 14:08 16:13 Finished 18:15

[@akatsukiluvratily6338]

I imagine these characters in like stop motion series love the work

[@TheodoreBringwaldOfficial]

I need these characters and just this entire story in some sort of video game, book, or even show/series/movie. I love all of it and am honestly considering creating something like this for one of my stories. I NEED SOME SORT OF ADAPTATION

[@ronaldhanson2710]

Idea for a guide: the Lion Guide. He was a firefighter before he was confronted by the entity controlling all mutants, but withstood it’s influence and became one of the only adult guide. Sadly he doesn’t possess the same degree of strange abilities the other guides do, but to compensate has beyond superhuman strength and Toughness, including a near immunity to fire or intense heat. Really hope @AceofClay sees this, and I hopehe picks the names Lyonel or Issac.

[@mad_vega999]

So cool, love the owl guide! I’d love to see like a ghost guide next, maybe a soul from the Seamstresses chain escaped and became a guide! just a thought! :)

[@wradraws]

i like his design! He really looks like he would know his stuff, not just with the owl motif

[@BrandoBaggins23]

The Mutant Universe seriously needs to become a graphic novel or book or SOMETHING! It would be a killer series of stories 😍

[@justinholbrook49]

Awesome, I love your mutant universe series. It is custom to you and it showcases your best creative side. (Suggestion) Maybe the next hero could be some big brolly bull/ox who maybe fights off evil characters or the entity. As always, I love your work. Looking forward to the next masterpiece.

[@GoldenPairEiji]

I love this character. He reminds me a lot of Jack Frost from Rise of the Guardians. Probably one of my favourite guides so far!

[@polythenepam3236]

I love this series! Windsor turned out amazing!

[@gennyquevillon1716]

Barn owl was a great choice. Not only do they have the quietest flight of pretty much all birds, but when they screech, they sound, as one person once put it, like Satan's blackboard. Softer and more innocent looking than a great horned owl? Sure. But weak? Not a chance lol

[@awkwardsauceproductions5996]

I love the guides so much. I think it would be really cool if you made an old woman into a powerful guide. A lot of these guides are younger so I think it would be a good twist!

[@dyllanrodriguez2828]

He looks so freakin cool man, I would buy this one for sure. I love owls, in my own work I really wanna do something with owls so this really gives me alot of inspiration to get some gears turning.

[@mosura2695]

fun owl fact: the 'horns' on some owl species are called "plumicorns" and they use them for camouflage to look like stumps with twigs sticking out of them. i thought it was important to tell the world bc "plumicorns" is such a whimsical word.

[@Cleo_101]

I would DIG absolutely everything that could be made out of your Mutant Universe! A book, a comic, a SERIES, a movie. Someone should get behind that :D waiting for netflix to make their move!

[@dragonsfire286]

YOU ARE A GEUNIS

[@davidfletcher6703]

Have you ever thought about doing a sculpture of the antagonist of the mutant universe, The Entity?, I love to see that

[@Medusii]

I LOVE Windsor

[@nickimcpheehals572]

Windsor is remarkable! Love him!

[@samanthadean1083]

I love how you used the face of the barn owl as your inspiration!!! It’s spooky and creepy!!! ❤️❤️❤️👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@nataliegray8019]

This guide is by far my favorite as of yet. I love his design and story so much! Still holding out hope though that the next guide will be a little girl in a tutu. I was thinking she could be like a mouse or badger, tiny and cute but incredibly strong. Also, I admit this Entity you keep talking about has me intrigued. What do they look like? How did they come to be? Can't wait to see what you make next!

[@AnnieNoodle]

I think this is my favorite from the mutant universe so far. He feels very cohesive and has such an awesome vibe. Love him!

[@wolfman75]

Neat!!! Great Back Story!!!! Love It!!!! Thank You!!!!

[@anne-marieolivier8318]

The whole time i’m like sure but that hood is not owl like. Bam - final shots and i’m like i see it!! So cool

[@lachauntiswashington231]

he looks amazing

[@ArchAngel900]

Next up will try to make a animal guide known as the goat guide basically like a guide with a wild sheep mask

[@dragonsfire286]

Ooh me like but I love tigers more so yeah but I love your idea

[@JesLT]

I want to know the whole mutant universe! You should write a novel or a graphic novel, I know it would be sooooo good. ❤

[@dyllanrodriguez2828]

Your mutant universe would be a really cool horror version of like DND or a rpg esc type of horror/adventure game.

[@TheLostTVRemote]

I think he's my favourite of the guides so far! Love his design :D

[@summerholt112]

My favorite animal is the owl so I particularly love this one

[@gemmabijak6110]

My favourite so far, love him x

[@lolliegon]

I think I fell in love in this one

[@thecooleststickofbutter3402]

i love it bro from the way it looks to its name and to its backstory it is just amazing! and heres a skip button ---> 18:18

[@wanya_telborn]

Awe love him

[@The_Painted_Arcade]

My favorite guide so far

[@morissaedwards7348]

I love the name you chose for him. He looks so noble and mysterious

[@sunnystar-dew9480]

AWESOME!!! I love all you sculptures! Especially the mutant series!!! You’ve inspired me to mak my own two characters😁👽

[@saphari22]

I was so hoping you would do an owl guide! I got inspired by the universe and created a guide of my own who, coincidentally, was also modeled after a barn owl (names are similar too (Windsor and my guide Wizer)). Love the backstory and the look of him! I love this universe so much and always get so excited when these videos pop up in my feed! Can't wait to see more Guides and Mutants.

[@MochiSystem96]

Love it. This was probably unintentional but you gave him jack Frost colors. Like down to the T, specially with the staff/crook

[@sarahdean3183]

I love him. I love your mutant universe and especially the guides.

[@BarrySloanesPillowcase]

The way this guys designed reminds me of Benjamin from ‘little misfortune’ for some reason

[@OwliSketches]

I love owls so much

[@MrDouglasOlave]

That was amazing

[@Pebphiz]

So cool! I can really imagine him springing into action.

[@hunterjenson917]

I do wonder if you would make another hero guide for the mutant universe like a bear or at least a another mutant like a man who resembles of a reaper carrying a giant scythe and has a mask of a skull that covers the actual face and has a horse that has a rope in the man’s hand that has a few cages of souls he’s collected over the years for the entity.

[@thatmtgnerd]

Oh yea, love this look. Think I have a new favorite guide.

[@Woodsboro_mongrel92]

Any DC/Batman fans out here? If so... Beware the Court of Owls, that watches all the time, ruling Gotham from a shadowy perch, behind granite and lime. They watch you at your hearth, they watch you in your bed, speak not a whispered word of them or they'll send the Talon for your head.

[@highshipper9222]

The owl guide is so cool!!!!

[@meerabellenbaum6092]

I love these characters and stories. It's so inspiring!

[@elsazarate1982]

Love how even the good guys have a little creepy to them. Love it!

[@kayladraws83]

I love owl's and I'll beloving this so much ^^

[@kayladraws83]

as well jack frost vibes XD

[@dragonsfire286]

Yeah

[@ApocalypticAnarchy01]

I’ve been watching since late 2019 and I love your content Ace, I’m admittedly tired of the mutants universe but I don’t wanna tell you what you should do since you’ve been having a great time with it. I hope to see more great content in the future and wish you luck :)

[@Taracinablue]

What a neat character!

[@OMP_Gaming]

You are the best art youtuber I know you are actually inspiring me to start my own mutant universe

[@novawilde2096]

Ever considered doing a "retrying sculptures I screwed up" video? Just with like your least favorite sculpture trying to make it again but more awesome? I think that would be an awesome video

[@jonawesolowski-thecommunit9968]

Anthony, you are soo talented

[@KittyWitch27]

I think he is my fav so far.

[@ArcherOwl]

I love this character and his story. I love owls but I was never a big fan of them being associated with intelligence since owls aren't really that smart (corvids like ravens and crows are way smarter). So I'm really happy you focused on their hunting skills and eyesight and hearing for him, which is accurate about owls

[@cathypatman1224]

Love Him! 🙂🙂

[@debbralehrman5957]

I like The Owl Guide. Looks easier to make. Of course that is watching you do it. 👍🏻

[@alikc25]

Awesome art work.

[@sashaKpp]

I think this one is one of my favourites 😍😍😍

[@brentbails3085]

another awesome sculpture! you inspire me to make my own sculptures hopefully as good as you do one day :)

[@mikepetersen7319]

Looks a little creepy-but not to much and He's got some Air of Elegance about Him. And the Backstory is catching. 👍🦉

[@thomimiart2854]

My wife won't let me watch your videos, because I spend a lot of time on them, instead of her. But I hid her, I still subscribe to your channel and watch your videos. You are very talented. I will learn a lot from you.

[@karinasanchez3285]

Love this little guy! 🙌

[@lillianlee4610]

I love Windsor!

Absolutely obsessed with the character design on this one 🤩🤩🤩

[@tracygardner6318]

I love your imagination

[@Sicara91]

The mutants universe would be such a cool ttrpg setting

[@aaddwwaann]

Nice work as usual, Ace. I hope you can make a guide with a music instrumental, like a flute or a mandolin, I''m pincturing a character who is blind, have 8 wins but no legs, shape like a dragonfly or a cicada...

[@ceciliablomqvist6677]

What a lovely character!!! I’m glad you didn’t make him bad. Owls are my favorit animals ❤❤❤

[@maddieadams75]

Absolutely a great piece, the creation and design leaves one wanting more. Mysterious indeed. Always a pleasure ❤
