I Made A Tiny Bug In A Sweater | DIY Art Doll

[@GoblinGirlStudio]

Thanks so much for watching! Please give me little pet bug name suggestions because I have no ideas!

[@RoseRealectricStar-t1j]

Maybe Brittany? Or Natasha? Or like smth like Bugthia 😊 hope you like my suggestions!! ❤ bai!! ❤

[@jacobcox4565]

Precious.

[@cb-wi1cq]

i hope there's a bug veterinarian in the works, it'd be so cute to see the creature that makes tiny casts for insects

[@GoblinGirlStudio]

Awwww omg, yes, now I want to see that too!!!

[@singingpandamonium]

Big shout out to your partner for all this music, it fits the vibes of these critters perfectly!

[@GoblinGirlStudio]

I will definitely pass the compliment onto him! I'm so lucky to have him, he's so talented and gets the vision perfectly!

[@caseyw1288]

knowing the bug doesn't love her mole hurts my heart.... but if i lived with a conspiracy theorist id probably run away too

[@GoblinGirlStudio]

If it helps any, it's not personal! haha She's just a bug who wants to scuttle around and eat dirt, like all of us

[@lesliealvarenga1995]

Awwwww she looks like a petunia

[@GoblinGirlStudio]

@@lesliealvarenga1995 aww Petunia would be a cute name for her!!

[@MsPrincesscupcakes]

I'm so proud of you for wearing gloves! True growth.

[@GoblinGirlStudio]

Thank you, I will grow, but I reserve the right to kick and scream while I do it

[@buttercupkat]

Name suggestion (if you're still taking them): Buggy because it's cute, fits with her owner's naming convention, and could be meant to refer to strollers because she's his baby, BUT also is defined as a type of car and horse-drawn cart, all means of transportation, or _escape_ >:) Maybe foreshadowing her being taken to a city's nature reserve after Moleton has a character arc where he realizes the townspeople like him and his pet doesn't so if he loves her he has to let her go??? And occasionally he visits to check on her and she's genuinely happy to see him because he finally listened to her needs??? YOUR CHARACTERS ARE SO FUN TO THINK ABOUT 🖤🩷

[@GoblinGirlStudio]

OMG I love this whole little narrative and Arc for Moleton and his beetle!! 😭 Hahahaha, that's so cute, I'm gonna think about that all day. I love that for her 💜💜💜

[@emmamurphy6417]

this is now my absolute favorite video on the planet. holy moly she’s so precious.

[@GoblinGirlStudio]

Oh wow, thank you so much!!! That is so sweet of you!!

[@JustAnotherBuckyLover]

Pfft. Any crocheter who gives you hell for frogging is just lying that they don't. The fact you could crochet with embroidery floss is impressive - I couldn't, that's for sure. But I'm a knitter primarily, so I might just have knitted it instead. I absolutely adore your sense of humour, your artwork and your whole aesthetic. These little critters are the best thing ever and I am in love.

[@GoblinGirlStudio]

Thank you so much!!! Agh, I actually really wanted to knit this sweater because I like the look of knitting so much better, but I just don't understand knitting as well. Like, I can follow a pattern, but I haven't developed enough of a knitting brain yet to figure out making a pattern. Maybe one day, it looks so pretty!!

[@JustAnotherBuckyLover]

@@GoblinGirlStudio I feel the same about crochet, haha. I can follow patterns but if I had to try and figure out anything that I couldn't make from basic shapes, I'd have no idea. If you'd like me to give it a try making a pattern for you, I'm more than happy to look into it, but honestly, the crochet one looks so adorable. ☺

[@GoblinGirlStudio]

@@JustAnotherBuckyLover Aww thank you!! I might keep that in mind for a future critter!! :D

[@justherbirdy]

I know showing your work to other humans is scary, but I'm so glad you did! Your little world is amazing and I can't wait to learn more about it.

[@GoblinGirlStudio]

Aww thank you! I'm starting to get used to it! It's been so fun to see people get interested in my little world :)

[@meg2831]

Never thought I'd find a beetle cute

[@GoblinGirlStudio]

It's amazing what a cute little sweater can do, isn't it? hehe

[@lostgubbins]

bethany. bethany the beetle.

[@GoblinGirlStudio]

I like that!

[@claireful]

Just don’t call her Beth. She hates that.

[@windsyDschultz]

The level of detail you put in is just incredible and I just love seeing how you engineer your projects, simply mind blowing

[@GoblinGirlStudio]

Thank you!! The engineering phase is always a fun puzzle!!

[@savoy6100]

Thank you for sharing. You are great. Thank you again.

[@GoblinGirlStudio]

Thank you so much!! You are so kind for going and watching all these!!

[@thewingedporpoise]

this is one of my favorite of your little things, all caught up on the little critter videos so far

[@GoblinGirlStudio]

Thank you so much!! 😭 I'm so tickled that you would go and watch them all, that is so sweet!!

[@thewingedporpoise]

@@GoblinGirlStudio I saw the mole hole and then I wanted more. Also, being able to see the little figures get put together was very satisfying for me I actually accidentally clicked on the mole hole while trying to quickly do something in real life, saw what the video I'd clicked on was and went "yeah, I'll watch this" and it exceeded my expectations

[@GoblinGirlStudio]

Aww yay! What a happy accident!! So glad that brought you here! 💜

[@AUDBALL4]

I'm hooked on your crafts after 2 videos! You are amazing! And how Bazzle Beetle 🤪

[@GoblinGirlStudio]

Aww yay!! Thank you!! Aww Bazzle is so cute!!

[@meg2831]

Your art deserves an audience! You are very creative and funny.

[@GoblinGirlStudio]

Thank you so much!! 💜💜💜

[@LadyOutlier]

That sweater turned out so good! As a crocheter that's only ever followed patterns online, I'm super impressed! The thought of trying to make my own pattern for something sounds so daunting.

[@GoblinGirlStudio]

Thank you!! This was my first time trying to make a pattern and luckily since it's so small, it doesn't take too much time to re-do. I would be way too intimidated to make my own pattern for a human to wear!

[@faroshscale]

the beetle you traced was not a june beetle but a purple pleasing fungus beetle! (yes, that's its real name.) Your beetle food in the bunker video is actually accurate as these guys eat decaying plant matter in addition to fungus!

[@GoblinGirlStudio]

Oh dang, I really need to get better about taking google at face value! But thank you for telling me because I love that species name! Glad I at least got the detritus diet right!!

[@barbaramessas]

Had so much fun watching this video! Please do more critters!!

[@GoblinGirlStudio]

Thank you so much! I'm so glad that you enjoyed! I have many more on the way! :D

[@AndrewsClayCreations]

She is great! I love her little cast. Posting once a week is brutal. I have been trying to do that recently, but I have to make much smaller or simpler projects to actually stay on top of it.

[@GoblinGirlStudio]

Thank you! And honestly, even with smaller projects, that's amazing to keep that schedule! To make the project AND edit the video in a week blows my mind!

[@AndrewsClayCreations]

@ I was much better at keeping that schedule when I started KZbin. I did manage to post 5 videos in November, one was a Short and another was a product review. Not as much work as doing 5 sculpts and a long form video of each.

[@clumsycorvid]

These videos are a treat! I absolutely adore this little world of critters you are creating and the artwork for you transitions and intro fit the ✨vibe✨ perfectly! I love the detail of making the beetle look like a pinned specimen and I can totally relate with your energy! It’s honestly a pleasure to watch and I’m so happy I stumbled across your channel I was stunned when I realized you were just starting out

[@GoblinGirlStudio]

Aww thank you so much!! I so appreciate it!! I'm so happy you like the transitions, they take so much time to make that every video I'm like "Oh man, I can't keep doing this" but somehow they keep happening! haha. Love your pfp, btw! One of my future project plans for this channel is making a Lady Amalthea costume for the Ren Faire cause I love herrrrrr

[@sophont_sea_anemone]

Its crazy how you don't have more subs, your editing skills and general quality of your videos makes it seem like you've been posting forever! Your crafts are super cool, its been a desire of mine to get into doll customs and making my own dolls for awhile, and videos like yours not only reminds me of that, but it also inspires me :] Can't wait to see what you do next in the future, I know it'll be awesome!

[@GoblinGirlStudio]

Aww thank you so much!! That's so sweet of you! I hope you do get into doll customs!! It looks really fun, I love watching doll custom videos, I really want to try it some day too!!

[@lunnaeii]

Thank you so much for sharing! I admire your bravery in jumping out there like you have. Your work is amazing and you deserve all the followers! Also, for the future, liquid sculpy is absolutely great for getting clay to stick to wire. I can't say for sure if it would work the same with apoxy sculpt, though. Cosclay is clay that's mean to be able to still be flexible once baked, though. Just some thoughts/ideas you might try.

[@GoblinGirlStudio]

Thank you so much!! And thank you for these suggestions!! I’ve been meaning to try liquid sculpy for that. I think I’ve also heard of bake and bond? I’m not sure if they’re kind of interchangeable or have their own uses. I’ll have to play around with both! And I actually just tried cosclay for the first time to make posable hands, and that will be coming up in a video soon!!

[@cb-wi1cq]

watching people pull stitches is actually really satisfying for me lol, mostly bc i can't crochet and i thankfully don't know your pain. it just looks pretty when the yarn is crimped and springs out of form like that.

[@GoblinGirlStudio]

It's honestly kind of satisfying to do! I'm so used to re-doing things that a lot of the times it doesn't bother me to pull out stiches, and I like the little ramen noodles it makes! haha

[@kripar3117]

Just found your channel today and I love it so much, can’t wait to see what you do! ❤❤❤❤

[@GoblinGirlStudio]

Thank you so much!! I'm so excited to share some new fun crafts soon! :D

[@irisssmits]

Really glad I found you, its like you have the same narrative in your brain is I do when I'm crafting. So I normally just comment "for the algorithm" But I decided that I should make a real comment :) you are doing great.

[@GoblinGirlStudio]

Awww thank you!! I'm so glad you're enjoying the videos!! Thank you so much for watching! 💜💜💜

[@dogfini3488]

4:55 next time try wrapping the bigger wire with floral wire! I’ve seen that done before to help clay stick to wire

[@GoblinGirlStudio]

Ohhh!! Good point!! I've seen people mention that technique before, I'll try that next time!!

[@dralgeon9377]

I don't know why, but it just seems so fitting for someone who's making children's tales style creatures to ask "Do beetles. . . even have meat?" Also, your crafting is great, love the videos. You've no reason to worry if people will like your art or your videos, no matter what you make, it'll affect the day, week, etc. of at least one person, and in most cases a lot more. Since what you make is lovingly crafted with a lot of thought put into it, many people will be much more drawn to it ^w^

[@GoblinGirlStudio]

Aww thank you so much, that is so sweet of you to say 💜💜💜 I've honestly been so touched by the responses already, I love that people are finding joy in these characters

[@MatthewVasquez-mt2se]

Nice I really like this I will say for sculpting I highly recommend getting green stuff

[@GoblinGirlStudio]

Thank you so much! I'll definitely look into it!

[@Charles-r9f6o]

My brain kept singing ‚six legs tippy tappy toes‘ through this whole video

[@GoblinGirlStudio]

I'd never heard of that before, but just looked the song up and it's so cute!!

[@JGVIllustrations]

not the partner's toothbursh again 😂 The beetle came out SO GOOD, omg I love her 😭 the illustration showing what's on her mind is hilarious, what a great character---your vision for her is so clear and perfect. She's going to be a legendary pet character like Spongebob's Gary. Idk what names could work, Chelsea? Phoebe? Blake?

[@GoblinGirlStudio]

Thank you!! That was my favorite illustration, glad you caught it!! Omg Blake would be such a wild name for this bug I love it 😂

[@AyaBlue22]

13:40 - roly poly approved!

[@GoblinGirlStudio]

Hehe yes! Glad she got to meet another bug!

[@AsioEntomo]

"june bug" that is my good friend the fungus beetle!

[@GoblinGirlStudio]

Agh, yes, I feel so silly!! 😭 I've definitely learned my lesson about typing in a name of a bug in google and trusting that the pictures they show me are actually of that kind of a bug lol

[@meghand4950]

So stinkin cute!

[@GoblinGirlStudio]

Thank you so much!!

[@avalon5957]

I love that the cutesy sweater also prevents it from flying away, haha even though I doubt that was in the thought process of the mole, and not just "you're cute, put on this sweater I made you" 😂 If you haven't found a name yet, maybe Belinda

[@GoblinGirlStudio]

Hahaha totally!! It's a sweater of love, that just happens to serve a dual purpose! Oh, I like Belinda, that is cute!

[@SurrarieHill]

OMG I want to see so much more !!

[@GoblinGirlStudio]

Thank you so much!! I'm so excited to share more little critters soon!! :D

[@FrostandEmber]

Petunia! Or Mabel... an old fashioned name for sure!

[@GoblinGirlStudio]

Oh, totally! I like Mabel!!

[@subplot]

beetletrice like beatrice but for beetles

[@GoblinGirlStudio]

I love that!! That's a great fit!

[@Ernzt8]

Your music is so much better

[@GoblinGirlStudio]

Thank you!! I will pass the compliments on to the channel musician! He is so talented!! 💜

[@robertharris9469]

you must think floss grows on trees! Fun stuff kiddo

[@GoblinGirlStudio]

You should see what a do with it on my teeth!

[@faitht8952]

In the future I’d recommend using an actual glaze instead of clear nail polish if you want something to last. Nail polish will yellow and get gummy over time unfortunately, and this cutie is so precious she has to last!

[@GoblinGirlStudio]

Oh! That is good to know! I didn't realize Nail Polish would get gummy!! (I guess it makes sense since it doesn't need to be made to last all that long on fingers!) Do you have any glazes you reccomend?

[@faitht8952]

@ I personally use either Dureclear or Liquitex varnish depending on what I need. Don’t let duraclear fool you with the matte varnish, it dries shiny. Sculpy also has a really good high gloss varnish. They all need a few coats but they last a lot longer. Krylon has some spray varnishes but if you don’t have ready access to good ventilation I don’t recommend them

[@GreatGuzzlingGophers]

Omfg I made a beetle in a little home with a vest all out of craft junk I had laying around and then I find this channel!(would’ve been helpful to know some of these things can’t lie)

[@GoblinGirlStudio]

Awww omg that sounds so cute!!! Well, I hope this video was helpful for your future beetle-creating endeavors!!

[@GreatGuzzlingGophers]

@ yes they always are:D

[@Roguechan]

Your jokes catch me off guard all the time, lol XD "General turd shape achieved" XD XD And the return of the boyfriend's brush! XD The drawing of the inside of the big's head was the cherry on top, that cracked me up so much :'D Absolutely chef's kiss video once more :) :) For the antenna, I was so scared that there would be cracks in your clay when you tried to pose them. Would, for a future project (If you somehow wanted to incorporate something that needs small, moving parts), something in the vein of an interlocking antenna work? Like, create a round hollow, then glue the "antenna" to a round bead that you can pop in like a reverse botfly larva, so that the antenna becomes mobile? As for the bug's name... June seems nice :D I know, lame, but it's also close to "juvenile" (with some far-fetched imagination). Polly, or Beatrice Ursula Gertrudine also sounds neat, imo.

[@GoblinGirlStudio]

Thank you so much!! I loved doing the bug head illustration that was one of my favorites so far!! And that is actually a really good idea!! They make tiny round interlocking tubes, like the square ones I used to attach the legs. I could glue the wire into the smaller tube, and then be able to snugly fit them into the head! I think they have ones that are small enough that it would be pretty discreet! And June is cute!! Somehow I didn’t think of that? And Beatrice is nice too! You’re the second person to recommend it, and I’m realizing now it’s probably because it’s kind of close to “beatle”! Haha I’m kind of drawn to Gertrude/gertie now….oh, I like that one!

[@Roguechan]

@@GoblinGirlStudio haha, Beatrice Ursula Gertrude was meant to be the full proposed name. When you look at the first letters you might notice why ;) And oooh, they do make that??? Awesome! I'd love to see them at some point! Maybe for a lobster creature? :D

[@GoblinGirlStudio]

@Roguechan OMG how did I miss that?!?? Haha

[@jakehohsfield]

Cute little buggie! Florence?? Betelgeuse?

[@GoblinGirlStudio]

Beetlegeuse? Do beetles have geuse?

[@sharkinhats]

BEETLE PET BEETLE PET BEETLE PET edit: also im feeling like. penelope or patricia as a name. no idea why

[@GoblinGirlStudio]

Haha I actually kinda like Penelope!

[@sharkinhats]

@@GoblinGirlStudio the possible nicknames like penny and sweet pea are very good i thinm

[@mia5073]

So cute and also gross hahahahah

[@GoblinGirlStudio]

Haha thank you!!
