Funny, I also made Bomb-Omb Battlefield on my channel, last year. I like how you stayed true to the games more angular, polygonal look, where as I went for smoother look. Yours stays more true the the game. Just goes to show how interesting it can be seeing different interpretations of an art piece. Great job as always!

[@sometf2player752]

8:13 this is a common trick used in a lot of older video games to save on polygons it’s basically a image that follows the camera this trick is still sometimes used today to render foliage like grass

[@Shiltz]

Just Cause 3 and 4 use it with trees. The tree itself stays where it is but the leaves follow you!

[@CutieFakeKirby]

The newest game i saw that trick on is baldi's basics

[@kaukospots]

It's called billboarding and absolutely still used in modern games lol

[@Reggiesvrworld]

Bro looks sexy

[@LMde20]

If there's one thing I've learned in my own endeavours of late. It's that it is incredibly difficult to render an optically accurate 3d image from what are, essentially, 2d examples. Your skill and patience, even on a 'polygonal' project, is impressive. Nice job.👍🙂

[@MasterClay]

Another video of my favorite sculptor! You're my idol! ClayClaim!

Umm

Hes your super idol

[@skiff9]

Sorry to hear you having a tough time this year. Life is full of awful things, so it’s important to fill it with as many happy things as you can to balance it out and make it all worthwhile. Nice to see you make a creation you personally enjoy! Merry Christmas and thanks for all the really cool videos!

[@derfuchs6046]

He is a german hmmkay

[@luhgarf]

I love how happy this guy is making his clay models and talking about his struggles in life with a smile on his face. It’s inspiring

[@CrunchyMcDugals]

I've been dying to see a model of this level since I was a child. I love this!

[@thomassmith660]

Ah the nostalgia is hitting me again. I always remember this level being really fun with all the things u can do in it . The whole game is great and I used to play it for hours when I was younger

[@Captain.Dank64]

It’s mind blowing how a game from 1997 is still relevant today This shows you how Nintendo put love and effort into their games

[@frederikadam9511]

1996, even.

[@erwandauliach9413]

To be honest, this really hyped me for possible other levels. The level of details in this one is so amazing it just screams for sequels!

[@warrengraham5145]

The amount of detail you managed to achieve here was insane dude, expertly done! Such an iconic level in the game. Speaking of gaming icons, what's your favourite game if you had to pick just one?

[@tattertot8259]

Now make an elaborate story of how we saved Marin from being trapped as a seagull forever with polymer clay.

[@TheInredibleMrH]

The scale didn't become apparent until you started doing the pink bob omb. So tiny! Sweet video. Great craft.

[@CutieFakeKirby]

You should make the other levels as well! Build dire dire docks next, should be cool

[@Targinator2]

These clay creations are so relaxing

[@GemGirl2009]

Yay! Happy holidays everyone!!! Sadly my sister woke up with a fever today so I won’t be able to go see family U_U

[@starblazer237]

"Tick Tock Trauma" is what I'm calling the level from now on

[@MonkeyBarGaming]

This looks really cool, thanks for making it as it brought so many epic memories back!

[@SlothFang]

Making the map was one thing, amazing! But then you made Chain chomp and the enemies!?! 🤯 Awe-inspiring!

[@zrmanoman]

nice work,this brings a lot of memories from my childhood too.this game was and it is still a fenomenal game

[@TodaylsTheDay]

Wouldn't be suprised if nintendo takes this down. Good work!

[@joettofficial]

Clayclaim please read this comment 🙏 Clayclaim, you are a complete clay legend that deserves to be on the Clay hall of fame! You inspired me to start clay creating myself, using your tutorials and then crafting my own. I just wanted to say what a huge help you've been..you changed my life in a way I never could have thought. Keep clay creating, merry Christmas!

[@press1230]

I loved this piece, personally I would of used a clear rod for the floating platform but, that's literally my only gripe. Top notch job

[@SkellaBella1396]

I thought those tiny bomb-ombs were insane and then you went and made a KOOPA. What incredible patience and eyesight lol

[@tylorian5168]

Hey ClayClaim, I have a #question for you: where/how do you store your clay? I’ve been trying to make some clay creations myself, but I always have to blast the clay with a hairdryer for like a minute to get it malleable enough to use; in these videos, though, your clay seems to be soft and usable the moment you open the package. Do you have any tips for this? Thanks, and awesome creation; gotta love Bob-omb Battlefield!

[@Mblastr]

I know this question is not directed for me, but I usually keep my clay in a cupboard in the package. So far my clay has always been malleable from the package. You should try to keep it away from heat or sunlight, that can mess it up. It might also be the brand. I use the clay from his website.

[@tylorian5168]

@@Mblastr Hey, I appreciate the response either way 👍. I myself use FIMO clay, and keep it either in its package or in a sealed little plastic bag inside of a container that sits on a shelf (which shouldn’t be too hot or too cold). I wonder if maybe I just bought a lot of old clay that was sitting on the store shelves too long 😖

[@xkillerchoppa]

can u do springtrap from five nights at freddy's

[@xkillerchoppa]

@DELANO_XD OH SHIT !!! 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

[@EmanuelPenteado]

Is bomb-omb battefiled for sm64

[@videoswithduncan1502]

the enemies are so adorable, especially the bob-ombs and the goombas

[@VDberri]

Keep going. I wanna see you make an ultra realistic creeper

[@renegaderonin1247]

You should definitely try and make all of the levels from sm64

[@alisiaale565]

*Fun fact:* Trees in Super Mario 64 are actually 2D sprites set to always face to the camera. That's why they are spinning around when you move the camera around them. Also, trees aren't the only 2D sprites that are always facing to the camera. Bob-ombs, bullies and bowling balls are too, same with coins, bubbles, and red numbers that appear whenever you collect a red coin. These things aren't 3D models or something.

[@generalgrievous614]

I’ve been watching your channel for years and I was happy when I was just scrolling through KZbin and saw this video.

[@wolfsyncc]

sm64 wasnt my childhood as i grew up with the next gen games but sm64 was super fun to play, i loved it

[@CrashHeadroom]

Here is a little handy tip for a bodge-job repair for a small knife like that (used to happen to me while messing with warhammer lol). glue a bit of metal on each side of the blade, small bit to give it a brace, then cut up some GAFFA tape or DUCT tape (strong fabric material stuff) and wrap a few bits around it tight, helps cutting it into inch strips. It won't last forever, but it will last to you can get yourself a new one and won't wobble around lol.

[@jeffmckenzie7282]

I'm amazed at the sheer patience you have while sculpting. Great looking sculpture. Super Mario 64 was the only Mario game I ever liked. Ever done any sculptures of The Legend of Zelda:Ocarina of Time?

[@isaaccook1890]

I had no idea this existed. Thanks, KZbin! I always admire fine crafts like this. As someone with shaky hands, I could never get down into the fine details that you do. It's always fun to see how intricate and detailed people can get.

[@TheLemonKiller]

This made my childhood feel very smol

[@bigchump]

I've been watching your videos since the fortnite clay builds!

[@Flaming_Moon]

I started around the time of marshmello

[@bigchump]

@@Flaming_Moon the best ones.

[@thestupidmarco]

This is so good! You are a great artist, keep up with the good work!

[@rachelgoldsmith5336]

My little son says “That Bob-Omb Battlefield is cool!” We love your videos!

[@solomoncumquats776]

This belongs in a museum

[@Mill352]

Damn, the nostalgia hits me, I used to play super mario 64 with my brother in his DS.

[@roycube1303]

If you can Sculp Clay THIS SMALL with THAT AMOUNT OF DETAIL, you're a pro.😐👍 Go get em Mr. Clay Claim

[@noodletribunal9793]

you missed one little guy! you dont step on the koopa you race, there's another smaller koopa by the teleport flowers! otherwise, this was awesome!

[@fatcat8088]

The Chain Chomp looks so cute!

[@calebdonaldson8770]

This man's attention to detail is astonishing! :O

[@christiaanschulz3654]

This is just amazing. Kinda wanna see a whole series of sm64 worlds🤔🤔

[@Kumar_epig]

First time i don't see you smile when build mario

[@manofthemeal8099]

As someone who has tried to use clay for making stuff before, this is incredible!

[@C4_Jamza]

I bought some clay at your store and love the map and happy Christmas and can you make master chief

[@JToonsAnimations]

Merry Christmas ClayClaim and everybody

[@Yosenku]

Hang in there! Its a hard time for me also. Your videos make me happy! I love Chomp!

[@toasterlad5577]

hey, it would be really cool if you created one of the afton (springtrap, glitchtrap, scraptrap and burntrap) animitronics out of clay!

[@nahumvas7375]

I felt like a child again these 17 minutes and 15 seconds. Sweet childhood memories🥺😀

[@hazzard_destroyer]

I have an idea for you. Star Man fort it is a scrapped level from Super Mario Galaxy but if you look it up I think you should be able to find enough pictures to re create it (Also Merry Christmas Eve and Christmas and what ever holidays you celebrate)

[@VVM2024]

MORE MARIO PLEASE CLAYCLAIM! This is amazing. You could maybe kill a Goomba with clay Mario shoes on your fingers !

[@ClayClaim]

Brilliant idea!!

[@danielleanderson6371]

My wife wanted me to tell you you did a really good job. How could I refuse her request? You did a fantastic job!

Facts

[@CaryArchitects]

It's interesting. How everyone loves Bob bomb battlefeild... but my favorite was always thwomps fortress.

[@shalamung_bung3035]

Love it, this would be an awesome project idea, but pretty difficult, but you should try to make delfino island from super ,ario sunshine. That would be Awesome

[@grundongaming3683]

2019 I watched all your uploads then I stopped watching but 2 years later I’ve come back to watching an awesome KZbinr

[@cholloway7432]

This is absolutely amazing, but I'm getting second-hand stress just thinking about how much effort it took!

[@halg3625]

I'm blown away! Your eyes and hands are a million times better than mine. I could never model anything that tiny. Amazing. I love every bit of it.

[@tronyboy6016]

I just discovered your Chanel after getting really into crafting videos, and I love all your crafts, it’s also nice that you are trying your best to explain every thought as a lot of channels don’t

[@beartackle]

Your awesome personality and the fact that you're building a level of a game I remember so fondly in my childhood made me smile so much. Thank you for this!

[@rexy5199]

This is so amazing! Thank you for that on Christmas ClayClaim! ❤️

[@liamario281]

That is a masterpiece and a Masterpiece of a Mario Game Super Mario 64 is. I love that so much well done mate.

[@SuperManMarioBros219]

You should make Whomp’s Fortress next. Very good

Ways to kill a Goomba: Fistfight. But like, one punch flattens it.

Surprised I haven't seen your videos before- always love watching artists do their process & your enthusiasm is infectious. Subbed. R.I.P. Scalpel.

Drowning a goomba looks really good btw

[@mephustowest1876]

I would love to see more like this. It was a really fun episode

[@kathleensnyder23]

I can’t believe you didn’t make a little Mario to go on it! But it looks great!!

[@kian1774]

I really love these personal videos like this, and the rayman one! Keep it up!

[@Zyzz_Enjoyer]

Man I love Mario, this is so cool to see. Great work! And please do more Mario levels, I would definitely watch every single one of them! Maybe some from different games too

[@mii_kay4514]

I finished the 120 Stars yesterday! I have a love-hate towards Mario 64, because as a child I was raging so hard at it because I really wasn't as skilled in controlling games as I am today. So I didn't want to stay defeated by it any longer xD

[@macrat2012]

ClayClaim! Keep up the great work! I admire your clay so much!

[@greasybunz4169]

9:26 sounds like a good time 😏

[@aapiepo]

[@lindamacpherson6226]

This game was my childhood

[@astraamarante6233]

I had to just pause the video and double-check those warp flowers on my switch. I never knew you could teleport with those, I thought it was only the caverns the giant cannon balls come out of!

[@RahhmiPoofs]

you are absolutely insane fr making stuff this tiny and detailed =O

[@alexanderquick9016]

Merry Christmas, And A Happy New Year To Everyone

[@pogpog4976]

Nice! Maybe next time you can recreate another level like wet dry world or lethal lava land

[@shugabrush3671]

Wow you are experienced! It's satisfying to see these videos.

[@eevee3636]

The attention to detail is incredible 😍 I have the same nostalgia for this game, and seeing it come together so faithfully has absolutely made my day! Subscribed immediately 💜

[@jovishark]

what an adorable little model! i like how you used the printed shapes and built on them to keep it to scale. the way you say "noodle machine" is giving me fun echolochalia tingles. your claymations are so great too! i didnt mean to stay up all night watching all of your videos but oops, its happening.

[@Kimo-wu2vf]

Best creation so far!!!

[@SA-ej7zb]

That was awsome. N64 my favorite consol for sure.

[@xxPenjoxx]

Omg it's perfect!!! I've never played Minecraft or Fortnite I just love watching you make the clay figures but THIS... ..THIS IS MY CHILDHOOD GAME! Thanks for this awesome project, if you do any more, my vote goes to Lethal Lava Land! I hated that Big Bully!

[@devilmaycry383]

Super Mario 64 one my favourite childhood games the 120 star 🌟 challenge was fun to do especially more of a breeze on the Switch version. Beautiful clay recreation good job! 👍
