I Made a Robot out of Candy!

[@Boylei]

This was an excellent video. Thoroughly entertaining, Dan!

[@Dan_Does]

So happy you enjoyed it! Thanks Buddy!

[@TheCrafsMan]

Dan, this is exceptional work! Nice editing, variety, and humorous delivery. And of course the result was off the hook! The beauty shots at 27:05... I see that atmosphere/haze and flickering light look! I can't remember if I ever saw that on Bill's channel, but still... y'all are some talented brothers. :)

[@Dan_Does]

You honour me, Sir. You most definitely haven't seen it on Bill's channel. He and I are wholly different 😉

[@junkers4561]

I dedicate this brilliant piece of modern poetry to you: "Welcome to the candy shop, Where Dan made a sweet robot."

[@Dan_Does]

Beautiful

[@mg1342mg]

"I begrudgingly serve...." I identify with that so much. Def enjoying your channel.

[@Dan_Does]

Thank you

[@CajunCraftastrophe]

"Never dream." : ) Well, I never dreamt that that I would soil myself on film, but I did. The shame will plague me and perhaps even my future children for decades to come. This build came out great! I like the wooden dowel pin texture technique. Love the rusty green color too. That's a good one! Nice work.

[@Dan_Does]

Thanks so much, Buddy. You're only being nice because I have that video, ready to release at a moments notice.

[@CajunCraftastrophe]

@@Dan_Does Dan, as my BEST friend I know that you'd never release that video. I also think that keeping it in a safety deposit box is overkill and shows a lack of trust on your part. If we're gonna be BFF's then you can make the symbolic gesture of taking the tape out of high security bank box and put it in the hidey-hole of your bedroom bookshelf. Yes, the one right behind your Vampire Romance novels with the other "valuables" there. Remember friendship is built on trust, not feces related blackmail. Your BFF. ~T-Nu

[@leytonjay]

That "When Crafting Goes Wrong" segment was pure genius, I really liked that. Great video on the whole, mate. x

[@Dan_Does]

Glad you enjoyed it

Who can take some garbage? Slather it with glue. Add a monster head And a dome of resin goo? The KAN-D man can.

Brilliant stuff!...I love watching sci fi things being scratchbuilt out of assorted household junk....please please do some more!!

[@Dan_Does]

Will do. Thank you!

[@charliethedemon01]

You don't need to stick to just sculpting, a mixture of scratch building too is great, you could give your bro a run for his money on the bots. He would probably say there's not enough beads! I'd drink a shot with you and I'm betting a few of your subscribers and twitch followers would too. Keep up the great work x

[@Dan_Does]

Really kind of you to say. Thank you

[@Matt-md5yt]

more lively than Bill's Rusty world but it would be a great companion to it, like something that his world would fight in an adventure

[@BlareWolfgang]

Your comedic delivery is so good 😂 I couldn’t stop laughing through the whole thing.

[@Dan_Does]

That's lovely to hear, thank you

[@paulkita]

Dude I have no words. Please make more of these monsters / robots. Or don't because that thing looks like it's in pain lol. Anyway the craftsman brought me here. Congrats. Awesome video. Liked, subscribed, can't wait for more!

Thanks 😁

Excellent build/sculpt and another fine episode. All Hail, Mo-Lar.

MOLAR!

[@euansmith3699]

@@Dan_Does Oh. no, has the worship of M'Olar hit its first schism?!

[@FeefooTV]

This is the best episode yet! I love the idea behind it! Sorry your artistic bits reveal part got borked by the light falling, but I think it might be a blessing in disguise because the way you turned it into a bit, was just so hilarious. I'm re-watching it now for the second time and your humor still has me cracking up constantly. I love how it turned out in the end, really stellar work, and the resin on the face really gave it this realism that is kinda creepy lol.

[@Dan_Does]

I'm glad you liked it 😊

[@encouragingthings]

Nicely Done, Dan. Not certain I'd ever Trick-or-Treat down your street, but maybe that's the whole point? Thanks again!

Any Bright Orange has to start out at A Lemon Tree School. I among all the other awesome things in this video, the 3 Hands gag got a giggle out loud out of me. The fluid slopping around inside the dome is a wonderful detail. The "beauty" shots at the end of the video got me cackling at how gross and cool Kan-D looks.

[@Dan_Does]

Thank you 🙂

[@jameslivingstone8267]

"When in doubt, if you can't make a hand, make a blade" I'm pretty sure I heard someone else say something like, "Hands are hard, claws are easy". Does that ring a bell at all? 😜

[@artguyD]

Crafsman mentioned you in his latest so I popped over to check it out. Thought I'd stumbled onto Bill Making Stuff doppelganger for a minute there. Great "trashbash" and the sculpt was a fun addition. Well done..umm, err..mate!

[@Sannspoof]

Super cool, so much story is conveyed just by looking at it.

[@SeanSidious]

I think you can be proud of that build Dan. Channel your inner Bob Ross. Just happy accidents, that’s all.

[@Dan_Does]

Thank you, yeah it wasn't what I expected, but I like the guy

[@garybuettner7920]

As much as I enjoy an 8 minute video of crafting perfection, I rarely get a ten hour project done perfectly in 8 minutes and I LOVE to see screw ups, dead ends, and fixing mistakes. I’ve only watched your scratch building videos so far, but now I have to go watch your sculpting videos as well. (Did the hole in the top of the dome keep the super glue from fogging up the done?) Carry on, sir.

[@Dan_Does]

Thanks for watching

[@chimkennungats1037]

Kan-D looks really superb~ Love how by the end you really can't tell that it's all (At least the body) waste plastic from candy! Really fantastic stuff, Dan.

[@Dan_Does]

Glad you liked it

[@scathezombiestu]

ALAN PARTRIDGE APPROVED.

[@waltonfurnacewoodworkingan8663]

Dan, one way not to need a funnel for resin is to pour it on a thin stick or wire and the resin will drip on the wire then into the small space

[@TheTBolt]

Maybe the teeth are the result of too many sweet shop visits?? Cool build!

That came out fantastic Dan, your cinimatography and editing is top notch. I am getting a bit worried though as you haven't featured cat nor made a bead-bot in quite a while....

[@Dan_Does]

And I never will! Thanks so much ☺️

Great robot, I really like it. And made with good old fashioned trash. None of that amateur bead stuff, bravo!

[@countryfriedminis]

I'm continually impressed with your particular flavor of blended creativity and humor. This episode was super fun. In considering the individual elements of your art - lighting choices, sound effects, sculpted results, overall theme of mock-ineptitude, etc; this channel really shines. I hope you're having a blast making these episodes.

[@Dan_Does]

I really am, thanks so much!

[@peachesthesordid8619]

I love watching both you and Bill making stuff. Your styles are a bit different but you are both talented and hilarious. I can only imagine what holidays are like in your family.

[@Dan_Does]

Not as great as you'd imagine

[@CobraCreates]

It really does amaze me just how much plastic crap goes into stuff made for kids. I don't pay much attention to candy but I do buy a lot of fashion dolls. The amount of packaging is always unreasonable. Anyway, wonderful robot! I'm always amazed at what people can envision when they look at a pile of little bits.

[@Dan_Does]

Well, I started building and hoped for the best. Thanks so much

[@JullyB10]

Over the course of this video I... - Fell in love with Dan (again); - craved sugar; - g ot reflexive about the amount of our plastic waste - got very upset about the amount of our plastic waste; - realized my tooth tupperware might not be a good enough substitute to a tooth chest; - laughed alone thinking of the word cabochon (cabochon hehehe); - felt way more important about my meager like; - got a practical lesson in newtonian physics; -Got a new creature for my rpg campaign (or nightmares); 10/10 KZbin experience I would say.

[@njmcliffe]

Great build, bonus allegory for the unfettered damage that plastic waste can cause to our fragile environment. When I was a lad sweets came in a small paper bag ... except for those candy lipstick things, they were great ... you could stick them to your belt and pretend it was Batman's utility belt ... until your Mum started shouting ... it was a simpler time. Hail Molar!

[@Mixxie67]

I'm kind of horrified by all the plastic waste in children's candy. My kids grew up in the 90's when that stuff really took off but I never let them have it. I also said no to luncheables. The extent of their plastic food waste was pudding cups and applesauce cups. Not saying we've never contributed to plastic waste. We surely have. We used to buy the Happy Meals that had thinks like the Simpsons watches. And I've bought cheap plastic stuff from the Target dollar shelves for Easter baskets and stocking stuffers. But seeing all that junk for one novelty candy, like the chain, is really depressing. I'm really glad there are people that are repurposing this plastic junk. PS Love the sketches!! I'm such a sucker for inspiration drawings. My daughter is a costume designer and my favorite part of their work is probably their concept art. Also a fan of storyboard art.

[@AndyMecha]

Really enjoyed this one Dan. Your right about the primer stage, it's like magic every time. Very jealous of your fancy shelves BTW.

Yes, the priming is lovely. Thanks buddy. That shelf was a cheap thing that I made fancy
