I love your work. Thank you for the last 4 years

[@aceofclay]

Let me know what you think of today's video! Check me out on Tiktok @aceofclay

[@SabakuNoShi]

Most of all this series is my favourite and especially this character. The chibi version was awesome, so I hope to see all of your series created this way. I'm not a plushie collector, but let me tell you - looks great! 😁

[@cameroncarlos8406]

This video is more chaotic than usual. I love it! It feels very real. Like how I sculpt and make art.

[@Naomi-pq6tv]

I love the fact that I can watch this with my toddler around and not have to worry about anything inappropriate

[@PedroHenrique-nv3yx]

Really like this style of video with the face cam, it's a nice change of pace, and I always find enjoyable to hear someone's thoughts while they're in the process of creating something.

[@remlya]

Change of pace. Passé means something that is outdated.

[@PedroHenrique-nv3yx]

@@remlya Oh yeah, thanks

[@mizzuzie3338]

There are so many clays out there and even if it's the "wrong" clay you are clearly such a pro sculptor to make something amazing with it. I'm in awe!

[@jennylawson1980]

The last 4 years for me has taught me so much ty Ace. Also thank you for the reviews. They are so helpful 😊

[@dumpythehippo5818]

iv been watching this dude since the siren head video, he had about a hundred thousand subs then. now he's going on seven hundred thousand. kudos for staying true to yourself and being awesome!😎

[@katelynbrown3404]

I love the new plushy!!!!!! a throwback jam of beanie babies with the tag. 🩷🩷🩷🩷

[@amandamason9359]

This video format makes me happy!

[@obadijahparks]

I'd love to see you live stream some work with a randomizer on what to make. It would be funny. Having to watch you figure things out live over a couple of hours....

[@creativecritter6546]

With Chevant, its nice to have a hair dryer on standby to heat the clay up on occasion.

[@varedis267]

Hair dryer, heat gun and an alcohol torch are all really good for heating various different sizes

[@thatguyray5517]

I been doing art for 3 years now but jus recently got into sculpting 3 months ago and I’m obsessed with it. I been struggling to find good tools online so thank you for making this video. Seeing them in action also makes it easier to decide if I like them or not and I will definitely be buying some next paycheck

[@katrinachase1728]

got my plushie in the mail today. Thanks Anthony.

[@ponyboy_]

I believe i used this clay years ago. I love it. It's been the only clay I use.

[@ponyboy_]

OMG!!! He's the CUTEST!!!! I imagine a jumbo size version of him that you could cuddle with. Awesome 👍👍😎🎉 congratulations 👏👏

[@miippi]

I just got a note that my Winston is in delivery. It could very well be few months until it's actually here, but the process of ordering it was unusually pleasant.

[@JDRobertson]

Try Chavant NSP medium. It is for sculpting and is really good. It sticks to your tools though.

[@bitcreativeilse]

😂 love the little invasion of plushes on the background

[@deeval832]

Got the mat and the plushie!! Love them both!! Great video as always . Love your channel

[@kayla389]

I love your videos! I think you should try to make a sculpture of the Ice Cream Man’s ice cream truck.

[@elishahankin6465]

I think a Gargoyle out of this clay would be sweet!

[@nodramapermited5650]

Already bought the plush one of my favorite guides ❤

[@LongTrout]

This guy knows his clay. Been around for a long time too.

[@debbralehrman5957]

Thanks Anthony👍🏼

[@KitahKat]

Accidental challenge video! Heh, I'm so glad you tried despite the challenges 💕

[@ZasaurusRex]

I haven't watched you for a bit but I'm glad I came back you brighten my day❤

[@littleender100]

You're good at clay work and wall I watched this I got to eat my first crepe 😄

[@michelle_mitch_p]

My best friend bought me the mat and it’s just perfect ❤

[@maddieadams75]

Thanks for sharing, could you elaborate on the curing process thanks ❤

[@BruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuH]

You should sculpt the Pot leaf monster in scary movie 2 rolling up Shorty as a joint. That would be hilarious!!! Or sculpt stoner ghost face or wazzup ghostface.

[@creepycutiecrafty]

Amazing sculpt - it did look like the Ice Cream Man, but almost like a more cartoony style of him. The texture on that clay looked interesting. I’m guessing you couldn’t get a very smooth finish on it? That could be fun to play with!

[@truemdl]

The Winston plush is so awesome! I will definitely be purchasing one soon.

[@PrincessHeathaB]

For some reason I want to see you make a creature with a duck’s bill. Maybe another guide?!

[@virusofthemind]

Have you ever thought about making the characters or some mostly like Davy Jones from pirates of the Caribbean?? I think that would be really cool for a sculpture series but it’s totally up to you.

[@mishal6222]

Please make a video of the supplies we can use for sculpting. Like the one you did 5 years ago

[@joshuaedley5191]

impressive clay

[@2tone209]

AY UP ACE OF CLAY

[@Duececoupe]

I thoroughly enjoy all your videos and your phenomenal work! Would live to see you do your own take on Loke (as we call him in Scandinavia), Baron Samedi or Maman Brigitte.... Keep 'em videos and sculptures coming! 🤜🏻🤛🏻

[@nukafanatic2455]

You just inspired me to make my own horror line sculptures. Wish me luck and hopefully they sell so far nothing yet.

[@andrea.rivers]

Great video! I'm putting my new silicone mat to good use!

[@tornandfrail]

Hey ace! just wanted to say hi and your videos are brilliant. keep up the awesome work!

[@mjpete27]

Hullo Anthony, great demonstration! I am curious about the curing time? DO you need to cook to cure? how hot does it have to be? Is it like air dry clays? I was looking to see how it would take paint too. Will you show a finished piece on IG or do another quick video or even a full length? Great sculpting as ever Sir!

[@varedis267]

Chavant doesn't cure, it hardens by cooling, but it will never fully set, you can instantly harden a piece by hitting it with freeze spray, similarly you can reheat that frozen piece to make it workable again. Even years later you can just heat a piece to start working it again. If you want to finalize a piece or paint it, you have to make a mould and use something like resin to get the end piece that you can then paint.

[@paigepugloveanimalsrule9140]

Hi ace of clay, I enjoy your sculpting video's and I understand the whole not talking while sculpting. Because when ever I was sculpting I would be like in the zone. Also I've been trying to get back into sculpting but I just can't find the space in my house, If you can help me get some ideas on how to make or find space/room to start sculpting again? That would be great!

[@maskedmistykohu369]

Hello aceofclay when you make your amazing art work what’s the best u have worked with ? Keep awesome love it u have inspired me Back to crafting ❤

[@samanthaobrien5564]

I love that you are trying new stuff... Have you heard of UV clay????? Look it up!! It seems amazing. I recon it would be great for teeth, eyes, slime.. sooo many possibilities.

[@dragonsfire286]

Tiger guide please I’ve been asking for too long

[@ponyboy_]

I can see Winston selling like a MONSTER at ☠️ Hot topic 🔥

[@GrayskullPrime]

I'm the opposite of you. I started sculpting in Monster Clay and I've tried to use Sculpy but find it extremely hard to work with. I'll always end up smooshing it. I prefer something harder that I can basically carve on and don't have to worry about damaging anything I accidentally touch. You don't necessarily need a microwave though. I use a heat gun to "spot soften" the areas I need to work on. And smooth it after by brushing on some Naphtha. Some of those tools work okay on polymer but they tend pull the clay like pizza cheese.

[@chadparker1283]

I would love to see some you do Falcore from Neverending Story

[@patrickfrericks8867]

Love your work, I learn so much from you. Have you used Pal Tiya clay?

[@ImeldaFagin]

Really fun to watch. I think that chavant never hardens. Boohoo.😪 I’d love to see you do some work with a translucent polymer clay. It would need to be baked longer but it can be pretty see through.

[@giovannireneblowholes2373]

Can you make a clay sculpture of Gertie the dinosaur

[@caseybowman674]

Lol “like clay from the ground” idk why that was funny to me

[@bravoromeojohn]

Regular Chavant NSP is like a reddish color

[@TheRatKing_MakesArt]

Can you make a video of you sculpting the Ice Cream Man with your eyes closed?

[@vonkatartistry]

Heya anthony! Have U tried cold porcelain clay? It's air dry clay but meant to be flexible after drying. I bought two packs and haven't opened them yet 😅😅 Would love to see what you think 🙏

[@adriansuarez1256]

what's your experience microwaving just to soften it? hadn't seen that before. Google seems very against it but I assume it's referring to fully baking it, but just to soften it does it work well for you? is it something you typically do?

[@user-cy9sw9tx1j]

Ace of clay please make a evil robot

[@R3HYDRA]

Awesome video as usual! but I have a fun suggestion (obviously no pressure to actually do it) but I’d love to see you sculpt some of the Hunters from the phone Game Identity V, I feel like it would really suit your style, and the Hunter designs are some of my favourites. Side note: I’m Always happy to see your videos in my feed, your creativity and designs are always awesome.

[@spitandcoffee]

oh the hunters would be so awesome in his style! i’d love to see him tackle some of them!

[@amywoods6764]

Have to admit that my first attempt was to replicate the brown carrot from lego

[@JoptaKitchen]

"Little head, little chin, little you know..." )))

[@DarkMatters96]

The temperature of the clay is not important if you're not too lazy to condition it😎 I recall my art school childhood when we had to work mostly with extra-firm sulfur clay, and there was no microwave or any other "cheating" facilities, only our little hands and persistence💪🏼 hard times, good times...

[@captrobson]

Hello ave of clay

[@maibritolsen]

Great video, as always. Wanted to buy me a plushie, was sad to see you only ship in the USA 😢

[@lechatbotte.]

I looked at blick what they carried was the oil based non hardening type. Is this different? I’m into trying all sorts of clay.

[@fairiesandfancies]

Don't you know not to take clay from strangers??? I KID. I've never heard of this clay before but I think I used one similar for making mold boxes. They have a really large line of different clays, really neat! Really neat to see how you use it and the tools!

[@marcosmaximiliano5454]

nice

[@damiencale]

I would love to see you do a sculpture without your shirt on 😜

[@meemeesallsorts]

How about trying different hardware clays like this, if any, or mouldable things? I also love the fact Ace is wearing what looks like a hell bunny t-shirt with Winstons in the background. (Google says it's "psycho bunny" but i've never heard of it but the logos are similar hence why I thought it was "hell bunny")

[@elishahankin6465]

Also maybe a heat gun could re-warm the clay after the aluminum foil...?

[@kelvinpoetra]

hello sir, I want to ask how many brands of clay there are for making action figures, film costume props and other things related to crafting?

[@rataei4983]

من شمارو از ایران تماشا میکنم،سبک شمارو دوست دارم مخصوصاً چهره،جلوه واقعی برام داره 👍❤

[@barbkeith2697]

So, does this clay harden and air dry? Or would this be a type of clay to use for making latex masks? Molds?

[@GrayskullPrime]

I'm not familiar with the Fill It version but Chavant doesn't harden permanently. It'll get hard when cooled and soft when heated. Though I have seen some people paint it, I'm not sure how well that holds up over time. It's good for molds.

[@andreaewert7204]

Great face cam video!-

[@dapper-ant2634]

Wait ur name is Anthony? My name is Anthony lol I've been following for like 3 yrs and I never knew we shared the same name. Ik it's silly but I think it's kind of cool

[@Jozalynejenne]

Tried to buy Winston but no shipping to Canada. ☹️

[@aceofclay]

Email [e-mail] and we will get u one!

[@katealexandria5664]

Fill it, ummmm 😂

[@blackitikatt533]

Your old format was MUCH better! 😢 It was concise, clear and less wordy.

[@Magnoliam_]

I work for the company which makes chavant clay and let me tell you, I am extremely annoyed that they gave you fill-it! We have so many clays meant for sculpting, made specifically to be softened with heat, different colors and hardnesses, sulfur and non-sulfur. And they give you fill-it?! Unbelievable thats what that is, I hope you get the chance to work with some of our real sculpting clays sometime, instead of that stuff.

[@rodschelin3470]

That stuff would drive me nuts the way it was leaving behind little rough edges and tiny balls for you. It must have bothered you because you left the sculpture rough looking.
