I see one big missed opportunity: The one with the glow in the dark base rhino should have been uncoated on the inside, like, this thing ate so much radiactive waste that it glows on the inside and when looking into its maw, the only thing you see is the radiated glow of all the nuclear waste it swallowed.

[@banquetoftheleviathan1404]

i like painting over the glow then drawing cracks so it looks like its reaching critical mass or melt down, the godzilla thing

[@Topdoggie7]

I can hear you pronouncing maw and inducing my depression.

My favorite of the monsters is that bead eating hell beast

"Bill Does Organic Things" sounds a bit adult... Great work on the dinosaur sculptures, sir! You have a good eye for creepy combinations.

[@BillMakingStuff]

Thanks

[@willwelty7344]

if you thought that sounds a bit adult, I'm guessing you missed the thing his dad said...

[@everettehungerford2858]

Cat adds an element that's been missing. It brings a certain warmth and sense of humanity that's been absent before. Helps contrast cutting up your chid's toys for profit. Good decision. 👍

[@disposable_income_andy]

To me it's the complete opposite. I feel like that thing is true chaotic evil on bad days, and chaotic neutral on good ones. It's truly a silent antagonist with unknowable intentions

[@jg1019]

According to bill canon, the gaping rhinoceros was engineered for food, so that implies a sentient intelligent race that inhabits or inhabited the bill cinematic universe. Now you have to make them, bill.

[@mothmanafterdark5924]

I second this

[@flamingdamn]

I love the iconic cat, really adds some life juxtaposed against the lifeless cut out of bill

[@Nomortem]

These turned out super cool! Love the bug-legged tri-jaw thing, very Resident Evil! Also absolutely thrilled to see Cat's return! I love cat! I love cat! Cat is the only reason I wake up in the morning!!! Cat!!!!

This was incredibly inspirational. I was an avid draftsman, painter, modeler, customizer and all around hobbyist up until about 10 years ago when life took a turn and I had to give it up for more important pursuits. At 50 years old, I find myself vicariously enjoying content like yours. I love everything that you do, but found this foray into more “organic” subjects VERY enjoyable. I, for one would love to see more content like this! Keep it coming!!! And thanks!!

[@kingnick5472]

Me: that’s dope it looks like that bear zombie from annihalation Bill 1 minute later: this is my favorite it looks like the bear from annihaltion 😂😂

[@fancifuldevices]

I love all the organic stuff you’ve been making lately. I feel like you have everything for a stop motion movie. Robot crashes ship on weird planet, hilarity ensues, cat is there.

[@pandarenBrewmaster62]

These are really cool looking, great job! And nice of your kid to "lend" you the dinosaurs. The one with the skull reminds me of a vulture, in the sense that they do not have feathers on their heads, because they would have gotten all gory and nasty after sticking their heads deep into a carcass. So considering the skull and beak it makes sense it is a carnivore :) And be nice to Cat for god's sake

[@BillMakingStuff]

Oooh I like that... I'm having it

[@Absoluun]

The monsters look amazing Bill! I know robots and scrap are your specialty, but I'd love to see you make more alien life and monsters. In general though, I think you should just build what you want. When you're passionate and proud about the builds you do it makes the videos all the better.

[@Paintedfigs]

More like this please! Thanks also for teaching the cocktail-sticks-plus-baking-soda technique for making legs!

[@ellieriggart]

These look really good, I think the stripy blue one's my favourite too- it would be cool to see all of these scratchbuild creatures from across your videos into one giant diorama/ print etc... I also recently tried Milliput for the first time after watching you use it, and it's honestly such a good sculpting medium- I've been using it on my stop motion puppets and it makes joint movements soooo much more fluent, so thank you for the tip! I'm gonna give yours and the patreons' advice about leaving it a little/ combining it with green stuff a go, ty

[@BillMakingStuff]

thank you!

[@GTRichardson7]

Bill you should take one of these monsters (i vote the "Face hugger") and should do a video creating other stages in its life cycle (think of a frog going from spawn/egg mass, to tadpol/polywog, to froglett to frog). it would be a cool way to creat a sort of taxonomy for it.

[@marydec4585]

The best gift is the animation with the completed figures, with sound no less!!! Love your stuff. Please steal more toys.

[@BillMakingStuff]

That's the plan!

[@quinbee_creates]

My favourites were the adorable felted flying ladybug? and the framed red/green/purple one. Your skull-faced bear was cool too.

[@BillMakingStuff]

Ok

[@Owl-x8x]

I watched this video the year it came out, and it inspired me to start a hobby of buying plastic animals and making monsters out of them that’s still going strong to this day. Thank you Bill.

[@TonyBullard]

Anything with a human skull is good in my book, but the legs on the not-facehugger are so perfect. LOVE these monsters. Would totally encourage more.

[@hkandm4s23]

Hi there! I love when the algorithm actually recommends me something cool! If I found you, I bet others did too and it looks like your video got a boost. Congrats on the success and I'll definitely check out the rest of your episodes🎉

[@pancakeboi4244]

this is super cool i defintly want to try this. im glad your cat is eating well

[@BillMakingStuff]

You should!

[@chrispriday6704]

Yeah, I think the custom monsters looked like a lot of fun creating them. I'd like to see more of them being made.

[@draped_in_black]

The Human Skull thing and the facehugger are awesome.

[@Stavekoff]

would definitely love a series that;s just builds like this

[@Skeletoonz]

This is my first video I’ve seen from this channel, and I absolutely love it, from the editing, commentary, and just the overall skill in crafting these characters, you’ve earned my subscription and a loyal fan

[@carraosborne1621]

I Love how this Video Attempts to make Scary toys And its SOO calm With Everything.

[@schmopal]

I'm happy any time you don't obliterate everything with rust 🥰🥰

[@Prozach45]

This was my introduction to your channel and one of the coolest things I've ever seen. I'll be using this for future projects with my son!

[@JaCob_101_]

I never realized I could use my old crappy dinosaur toys for something like this. Thanks for the inspiration dude keep it up!

[@tiffanybriley6871]

I really love the use of toothpicks (cocktail skewers) it fabricate legs with super glue & baking soda layers to make a creepy creature from a detailed dinio tail & several lower jaws...makes you wonder how it chews?

[@hambobanjo]

I think the awkward humor and sound effects really adds a lot to these videos, or it least this one, it’s the first one I’ve seen of yours. Definitely checking more of this channel’s stuff out. Really entertaining.

[@rozu583]

This is always so inspiring, especially the monster ones. Keep it up!

[@BillMakingStuff]

Ok

[@Qppuccino]

These might be my favorites so far! I was actually gonna say that the skull monster thing looks reminds me of the bear from Annihilation, but you beat me to it.

[@pearsrtasty3326]

Your work is absolutely insane!!! Please please pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeease do more!!!!??? I saw your flocking/basing video before I watched this one so I had a "sneek peek" before of the monsters. I'm so glad I watched this one to see how they were made. Your content is freaking awesome. Very talented. Thank you again for a great video! Now, to find out when "cat" came into the picture...

[@pinstripeowl]

Love how natural these forms look in the end

[@geoff8793]

I'm sure I'm not the only one, but whenever I'm miniature painting you will now hear me whispering "dryyyybruuush" when I get the opportunity

[@ellisargamer9248]

I really like the Arm King and the Space Cow, the other two were cool too.

[@TheBarnUnit]

Big fan of the 'not a face hugger'! The texture from glue and baking powder on the legs looks awesome - definitely stealing that technique. Thanks!

[@paulaneary7877]

My goodness. I have just discovered a brand new world to dive into. Thanks! Great work by the way!

[@Voirreydirector]

Well done, dear. As old as these toys are, they were so mass produced that few of them hold any kind of antique value. I commend you for taking old things off the shelf and bringing them back to life.

[@gingerdog8203]

I love how the dremel sounds like the screaming of the animals

Uncle Billiam, this was OFF THE HOOK! You just keep on going, man. Hashtag INSPIRATION! Seriously, very nice result! ALSO... I'm going to break down and try oil washes soon. I have to! Thank you!

Thanks for watching mate, I use cabochons in the next vid... I was thinking of you the whole time.

[@AnnMiE]

When one hears quotes such as, "Always keep the heads" out of context, one begins to question what kind of video one watches. And yet, I love your videos. Never fail to cheer me up. Thank you ❤

[@ActionYakPolice]

I want to do this so badly, it looks so fun I've found a new hobby

[@paulosborne6517]

Excellent stuff. I like your monster projects best of all, and these are strange enough to give 'The Thing' a bad case of the runs...

[@lexi_9995]

Great work, always brightens my day, love the cat.

[@Ildra2007]

I love them all, but the baby scrap beast is my absolute favorite. YES, PLEASE DO MORE CREATURES!

[@lilacdevil1349]

20:07 there’s something about seeing your creatures right after priming, in this mono steel-ish color, that makes me imagine how these monsters have lived in our world before, and somebody just made an instillation in the museum about them…

[@volttherobot]

Totally felt the "Gozer dog" vibe on that one... I have a theory regarding Cat - or more of our collective love for him/her (you WILL let us know "what" it is, won't you? Perhaps we will observe some kittens in the future?) is 50:50 - it's half actually "experiencing" the cat and half the pause proceeding the camera switch to the cat. Anticipation. That's half of what makes a thing so special... ooo kittens maybe,? Even more anticipation...oooo you just said the words "face hugger" yay -oh no I need to rewind the video, I got all preoccupied with this cat stuff..."fingers nice and wet"? what? *hits rewind*

[@BillMakingStuff]

Thanks bot

[@kid_scarlet]

Please do more monsters!

[@BillMakingStuff]

Your videos have been probably the main thing getting me into this scratchbuilding hobby. The videos are relaxing, inspiring, and funny all in a nice cute package. Thanks!

[@BillMakingStuff]

Glad to hear it!

[@beforever]

the creepy skull one reminding you of the bear from annihilation is funny because it reminds me of the alzabo, which I think was a very clear inspiration for the bear creature.

[@rayexile6278]

Dear Mr. Bill "Old Witch Hands" MakingStuff (and Dodgy Cat), I enjoyed your video, and look forward to future episodes. Wishing you a speedy recovery from your toothpick related mauling. Cheers.

[@smurp7091]

Ahhhh!!! I wanted you to do another video like this ever since that toy collab. It is really exciting to see you use wonky toy shapes in your creations👍👍👍

[@BillMakingStuff]

It is fun

[@WildWeedsNursery]

Oh man. So I had the idea to do this as a kid and would pick up old toys at the thrift store, take the best parts of all of them and make a new better toy. As an adult now with kids, looking for new ways to connect with them I suddenly remembered this odd hobby I had. Your channel is really inspiring and helping me approach this with better tools and broader ideas ❤

The one with all the arms and eyes in my favorite.

[@maddiecarter697]

Very much loved the monsters and the bugs. More of that please. And Cat, who deserves his own IG.

[@euansmith3699]

The legs on the Scrap Beast look so nasty and cool. The skull head could be an adaptation like vultures' bald heads; allowing them to scarf-up the innards of a dead animal without having to clean their feathers afterwards.

[@sonoftarg3793]

Old witchhands has now a cat on his shoulder. What comes next? Flying around on a broom into Walpurgis night?

[@TheOrklord]

Found this video by accident; subscribed before the end, good job!! Can hardly wait for more, checking out your backlog now. Thank you!!

[@atelier_AG]

I am using Nivea hand cream in stead of water to keep green stuff from sticking. I find water dries a bit too quick, and the hand cream lubricates the sculpting tools a lot better! Awesome video!

[@BillMakingStuff]

Good tip

[@jumpyspiderlady8454]

Well... Got this in my suggestions and I'm totally at home here. Love the work. Love the creatures. Love the video editing. Love the cat

[@3llevate]

Yes!! I'm so glad you mentioned the bear from Anihilation, I saw it too! Love that bear.. or some depictions of Wendigo.

[@astrozombiac3535]

Bead bot cavalry. Best of both worlds, little rusty boys riding on freaky deaky monster types. I dunno. That opening was great, the video looked more clear? Or is it the lighting? Looks good. Yeah.

[@ShockandAwe18]

I love all these creatures. Very inspirational to me!! Your sense of humor is also very entertaining!! I am digging your stuff Bill!!

[@timothyyoung2962]

The Face Hugger actually reminds me more of a creature from John Carpenter’s The Thing, more specifically the slithery arm creature from the prequel. The skull beast and the scrap crawler are my two favorites.

[@dwarfanage9379]

Hi, I use greenstuff a lot. I recommend that instead of using water as a lubricant for greenstuff, you use a glycerin based lotion like Nivea. It'll eliminate the issue of stuff sticking but also not ruin the putty. You also have to lubricate your tools less. Happy sculpting!

[@BillMakingStuff]

Thanks for the tip

[@archmagosbelisariuscawl1192]

I’m so happy to see that cute fluffball!!!! I love cat so much, please tell him I said hi!!!💕💕💕🥰🥰🥰

Another awesome video Bill! Insectoid face-huggery thing and skull face are equal top for me, love how reversing the body on skull face gives him that top heavy muscular look, that's inspired. More monsters please!

I have GOT to try this out! Looks like loads of fun! 😂 Yes please create more Monsters. Perhaps you could bring in terrain elements as well. Like a tree head caterpillar thing or a jumping cricket with robot legs for extra jumping. 🤝👍

[@callmegrimm1]

This was a refreshing video to watch during my lunch break...funny and inspiring...editing on point...sound effects. Overall well done i really enjoyed this video.

[@DevEast]

At this point your so good at making rusty, dirty looking robots, spaceships, and monsters that I bring forth a new challenge which is to make a bead bot ( any size) that has zero rust on it but looks cool.

[@XR-vm3qj]

The hellish beast with the skull head is unreal mate! love it, defs inspired to make some old toy kit-bash now!!!

[@ScientificallyStupid]

Those are brilliant. Always amazing how painting a model really unifies it and makes it look like one cohesive thing rather than a bunch of brutally hacked off limbs put together ala Frankenstein. The long face hugger and the Annihilation Bear dino are our favorites.

[@BillMakingStuff]

Thanks

[@sharonrafferty3423]

That looks like bicarbonate of soda not baking powder

[@BillMakingStuff]

[@psikodelriot6754]

That´s the brilliant secret trick to make Hydras less dangerous. Just cutting off the lower jaws, instead the whole heads. So they can´t bite anymore, yeah!

[@tearsofjoycreative]

I think I like the one made from the tail and has lots of teeth for it's mouth. Well done!

[@Forestgremlin456]

Yes, more monsters! A while ago I made a decent start on a trashbashed carnifex and I discovered that layers of earphone cable is a good way of making that weird ribbed texture Tyranids have. Coffee cup lids and butter tubs are also great sources of hard plastic sheet that's pretty easy to cut. And microwaved PVA glue is good boil texture, or just adding drops of super glue to pva. Hope some of that is useful~

[@Knight_grundle_III]

I love the world that this guy is creating would like the storyline stuff and all these crazy creatures this guy has the exact same attitude is my art teacher and it's amazing

[@curiositydrawsme9180]

Really great to see the organic process of creativity. I also like your sense of humor. I loved the eating-creature you made from the glow-in-the-dark rhino and the toothpick-legged creature. It was really great the way skullface’s whole physiognomy developed the moment the hind legs became the front legs and vice versa. I liked seeing such tiny little haunches on something with such massive arms. This is my first time finding your channel, and I’m excited to share it with my other maker-buddies.

[@BillMakingStuff]

Glad you enjoyed it!

Annihilation bear meets Gozer dogs is a win.
