Building Life-Sized Pikachu

For all the popularity Pikachu has had over the years, I always found it odd that nobody had made him into a real thing. In this video I take a real mouse and turn it into a full-sized living being.

Just as a tip for smoothing out clay, brush it with isopropyl alcohol to remove fingerprints and seam lines

[@ennibee6684]

Thanks man 🙌

[@2735angel]

What you can remove seam lines

[@pinkusdean1178]

@@2735angel yep, give it a good blend with some tools (or fingers, I recommend silicone tools) then give it a good brush and it helps the transition alot. If your every struggling to remove a seam, or transition it nicely prebaking for a few mins then adding fresh clay and blending that can help (best for divets or connections that don't seamlessly join)

[@2735angel]

@@pinkusdean1178 I haven’t worked on anything like that yet and it’s a little too complicated for me also do you know any way to make air drying clay dry faster something took like a week to dry in a hot glue mold I made and it was small too

[@pinkusdean1178]

@@2735angel depends on the clay to be honest, it does take a while, main thing is airflow, once the top is try be sure to flip it or put it on something so air can reach all of it. Hair dryers can work but can cause cracks and sometimes make the clay a bit brittle so I'd recommend doing a test sample. But with air dry clay it does mostly come down to waiting, though most should be workable after only a couple days (though if it's thick the core will still be soft but the out layer should be thick enough that normal handling works ok)

Next step: Peter builds a life sized Patter, thus creating a Patterception and confirm the existence of a Multiverse

[@JedsAnimations]

It's honestly really inspiring to see how much you have improved at this kind of stuff over the past few years. I know you might not be the best person at doing art like this, but to me it is so much more enjoyable because it seems so much more real. It feels so much more human to see someone that's actually still learning and making mistakes. The creations you make manage to look fantastic but still feel achievable, as opposed to other videos that seem to be created by superhumans with hundreds of years of experience. I also really love that you can just do whatever you want on your channel without feeling restrained to one specific topic or style of videos. Your videos always brighten my day!
