Making a GIANT CURSED BIRD MEME for Halloween! (Fixed!!)

*Sorry for the reupload folks, can't believe I didn't notice the first one somehow only uploaded the first half of the video?? It's all fixed now!*
This one is purely for a silly bit of fun, I was on the fence about uploading it to KZbin since I'm sure there's like zero demand for this kind of random video, but honestly I had so much fun with it so no regrets!!

As a retired zoologist, who spent 14 years working with birds, you did amazing! It looks so good! 💙

[@MissTwisteddd]

Hah! Honestly a compliment from a zoologist specialising in birds makes me incredibly happy!

[@jaimejohnesee]

​@@MissTwistedddthe movement of the head was genius and quite realistic. 😁💙

[@rebeccachambers4701]

i live with a bird that is white and black, mannerisms could be better for instance your not trying to bite anyone close to you. or poo on some rich jerks car.

[@evanlane1690]

Thanks for the work you did! I'm not involved in the field at all, but I love seeing all the learning and conservation!

[@WobblesandBean]

​@@jaimejohnesee I'm a current zoologist, and I wanna work with birds! Any tips or referrals to places you've studied?

[@kalieris]

I love him! When you were flapping your arms I got this whole vibe of him being the youngest member of this ancient race of bird-beings. Nobody takes him seriously until one day he accidentally joins a plucky band of other random creatures and helps them save the world. ❤

[@MissTwisteddd]

Yessss, love this idea honestly!

[@morgancolaizzi6824]

I play a creepy kenku fellow in dnd, and this is exactly the kind of thing I need to make my own costume! Thank you so much for uploading!

[@megatronjenkins2473]

OH COME ON MAN KENKU so much for uploading! (sighs) What do I pay you for, man?!?

[@MissTwisteddd]

Oh that would be amazing! I hope it goes well!

[@Yurivw]

I never even knew it was a meme, I just assumed you somehow dredged this unhinged thing up from the depths of your psyche. Anyways amazing work again and as usual I absolutely love it! Nice necklace too! I don't think I've really seen it before. Is it new? I usually don't pay attention to that but since a co-worker had been bragging about getting a new one all day it just sort of caught my eye haha

[@MissTwisteddd]

Haha honestly it wouldn't surprise me if it was a concept entirely from my own head given my weird concepts already! But it just meant I instantly felt drawn to the erosion bird meme when I saw it!! And thank you! It is a new necklace!

[@wilfredpaardekoper6297]

​@MissTwisteddd that necklace looks like a ring it must be very special to you to keep it close to your heart ❤

[@krystnce]

It is a testament to your level of craft that you can take a simple premise and simple materials and then end up with something that would be at home in a Henson production, particularly Labyrinth or the Dark Crystal.

[@dragonHeartisatherian]

The dark crystal gave me nightmares as a kid- 😂😅

[@Myrtle2911]

@krystnce I was totally getting Big Bird vibes from it. It's very Henson-like.

[@seanmcgcostumes]

As someone not on Tik-Tok, this is my first exposure to this. But gosh, this costume and the way you did the head is so inspiring for my Percy and Orthax costume! I hope that some day you make a full video about making your biblical angel headpieces, because they’re so fascinating, I’d love to hear how you make them, and Shorts can’t be saved to reference later and aren’t really a step-by-step descriptions of how it’s done. I’d love how you make those cool costume pieces! They’re truly art pieces, tbh.

[@MissTwisteddd]

Thank you! I did post a smaller video on my Patreon about my most recent angel Headpiece! I might one day attempt one with servos too

[@airplanes_aren.t_real]

WE MAKING OUT OF THE ARTIC WITH THIS ONE 🗣🗣🗣🗣🗣

[@nevzilla]

to be fair, normal job has taken on new meanings this century. so you are correct.

[@MissTwisteddd]

Very good point! People do all sorts of odd things these days!

[@masondeross]

I propose the lore behind this costume being what the Skeksis looked like before they got corrupted by the Dark Crystal. Or alternatively, the profane Ascendant Skesis after truly harnessing the power of the Dark Crystal by consuming the life force of all the other Skeksis and Gelflings, if you want the idea where the prettiest Skesis is actually the most evil one.

[@FaultAndDakranon]

I always love an upcycled cosplay. Ps: you can sew pieces of milk bottle plastic together if you use the right needle and thread 😊

[@otakubancho6655]

Thanks for allowing us a peek behind the curtain,it really showcases how good an artist you are!👏👏👏

[@darth-milk]

i’ve used those clear baubles before! my preschool would let us pick out a few colors of paints to put in them and shake them wildly to make a wonderful multicolor bulb.

[@MissTwisteddd]

Oooh that sounds amazing! There's honestly so much crafty potential with them

[@darth-milk]

@@MissTwisteddd i will say that the paint starts to separate from the bulb after about a decade, but it still stays in about the same place. none of the bulbs have paint shreds, just air bubbles between the paint and the bulb

[@beckymurphy4714]

I, too, have an affinity for feathers and wings. This bird is...deliciously disturbing and I kinda want to make one for myself. Using the chunky yarn was brilliant; I'm going to borrow that technique to make "icicle feathers" for my winter fae. Honestly, you are SO inspiring.

[@luvnotvideos]

The fluid movement is what really sells this so well. Really cool process! Thank you for sharing - it's given me lots of ideas for next year :D

[@justmutantjed]

I had a blast watching this. It's amazing what you can pull off with cardboard, tape, and random little bits.

[@lillemoncandy1590]

My siblings and I have been SEARCHING for someone to make a tutorial for these damn birds. I love them so much and we're gonna try our hand at the birds!!! Thank you!

[@hamstermk4]

I loved watching your process with this. You clearly know what you are doing, and I appreciate that you take the time to share your knowledge with the world.

[@MissTwisteddd]

Haha I think I have a bit of a knack for these things after so many years of practice!

[@megatronjenkins2473]

I wish i lived nearby, so i could randomly glance out my window and see some terrifying monster dancing in the driveway next door🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@AbdiAbdi-t8q]

buat coustum bird

[@moxie_mirahYT]

I love him sooo much(I love the little neck wiggles at the end lol >:D)

[@Tepetkhet]

Oh my gosh! I absolutely LOVE finally seeing a detailed how-to video of yours! I've only ever seen the short form videos and they are just so amazing. Your style is so unique, and the "animated" creations you make are next level.

[@MissTwisteddd]

Thank you! The short-form ones are fun but I'm enjoying doing the longform videos, feel free to check out some of my other vids too!

[@Myrtle2911]

This is so cool!!! Meme bird aside, the mechanics of the head makes it look so realistic. I mean, it's basically a cardboard bobblehead, but you'd never know from just looking at it. I was getting Big Bird vibes. This would be fun as a corvid, too.

[@LeeEisPrettyStrange]

She's giving the personality of ol school Muppets

[@Catl8044]

I love it! It gave me Dark Crystal Skeksis vibes ❤

[@Idkwhats_goingontbh]

I would literally spend my whole bank account on this😭😭😭 YOU DID SOOO GREEAAAT

[@thebedroomshow9010]

Saaame, I also couldn’t stop thinking about those birds when I saw the videos. So much so I started imagining how to start making a suit for next (now this) year’s Halloween, but like most ideas, it was more likely I would have enjoyed the idea more than the following through

[@Reptile_Gecko]

Oh it reminds me of one of The Spirit Walker's suits.. definitely recommend seeing the ones he makes, they're real cool and some have lived a LOT longer than he originally intended.

[@mikaelcronstam2312]

That was cool and great to see the build going forward and some thoughts about why some solutions was chosen over other possible solutions. :)

[@noemidax993]

To be completely honest I think this has got to be my favorite video from you so far XD I don't care what youtube algorithm says, this is the content I signed up for. Don't get me wrong, the other cosplays are perfect, but there's just something about literally slapping stuff together last minute because YOU WANT TO Your enthusiasm is truly contagious

[@MissTwisteddd]

Haha thank you! It's exactly my thoughts and why I decided to just do it anyway rather than because some mindless tool tells me I should!

[@noemidax993]

@@MissTwisteddd Honestly this inspired to make some cardboard critter myself, I just need to catch a break from school 😩 It’s s exactly like you said: there’s something really special about getting glue under your fingernails like when you were eight😆 Anyways, love you and please continue being the amazing human? being you are 😘🦉💕

[@chrismurphy6393]

Awesome work. Even more incredible that you did it in 48 hours. Hope you had a spooky Halloween.

[@SpTigerJD1]

Been on TikTok for awhile, 1st time I've come across this meme. Have to look it up. Thank you showing how you made this. Looks great.

[@Pupcan]

So THAT'S how you got the head to stay level while the neck moved! All this time I had thought it was somehow string-controlled from your hands. LOL Thank you for showing the making-of decisions which went into building this.

[@MissTwisteddd]

Haha yeah! I was inspired by the bobble-head dog figurines you can get! Thank you!

[@Bentley_allwell]

Oh my gosh, she was so goofy at the end!cuteeee

[@simonyin9229]

Thank you for sharing. I really enjoy your creations, you add so much personality to the characters. It really elevates it from purely nice to look at to storytelling through visuals. I hope this makes sense, anyway keep doing what your doing you slay.

[@derkleineFichtelvomZauberland]

Finally a longer video of this! This costume is amazing!😍😍

[@rileygorman5986]

Thank you SO much for sharing! You’re such a G! Such a gorgeous costume.

[@annaruthrowan2706]

The head motion is very pleasing

[@renees766]

That looks incredible!

[@VivaLaDnDLogs]

I *demand* more giant bird meme costumes.

[@MaskedRiderChris]

Screw the algorithm, I enjoyed the heck out of this video. Chirpy, chatty Aussie gingers for the win!

[@McStabbyThaClown]

I love both your KZbin and tiktok content. You're amazing!

[@kimnielsenthewordyvikingett159]

Sweetheart I've no clue why you would refer to yourself as twisted!!! To me I think you're an extremely gifted artist who goes to extremes to achieve a certain look!!! I myself have never ever witnessed such fantastic dream come true art I don't think my entire life!!! To say that your but a twisted individual is preposterous!!! If you could harness your talents for monitory gain's I'm sure you'll be a smashing success!!! You've the raw talent of Leonardo himself baby girl!!! Davincy that is!!! But you're anything but normal!!!😊

[@MissTwisteddd]

It's mostly just a funky name that has a nice ring to it! But I guess I always try and find a unique 'twist' to things to make them my own so I guess it kind of comes from that!

[@FaultAndDakranon]

​@@MissTwisteddd That connotation of twist is definitely true. ❤ Your stuff is always bursting with your own personality.

[@nathanhill4599]

That is awesome, your so talented, thank you. I love your owlchemist jupiter. I used to look after the great owl we had when I was at college.

[@harveynorton3666]

This is just great! It is a real looking bird. Your sculping if fantastic. I also just love your owlchemist character. Thanks for sharing your talents and creativity! Peace, love, and light.

To answer your question they are trapezoids and also, I love this art project and I’m probably gonna go look on your channel to see more

[@0xUnwantedx0x]

I was so happy to see the flappy bird arm wings at the end and now I want to make a boi!! :)

[@aron2609]

You have an amazing imagination and creativity. It is fantastic how you can bring such life to the cosplays you make.

[@CrankyQuokka]

I just love this so much. All your work is incredible, and it is reminding me of how much can be done with the basics 😊😊

[@barkingmouse8152]

loooove your creativity, great hands.

[@Algonqiun]

Sooo... I'm not really into birds all that much, or this kind of cosplay or anything you're showing but I do admire how well everything turned out. Anyhoots (see what I did there) I just wanted to mention before I click the show less, that you keep doing you and that you are very beautiful and super weird but not my kinda super weird. Hopefully, I'll stumble across your channel again down the line.

[@LongshotLink]

You're like ridiculously cool. This is so awesome!

[@evaZplanet09-_-]

Ima use this to make a Halloween costume fr it looks so good

[@NA.369]

You are an absolute artist

I was waiting for this build tutorial and hoped it was in the works when I saw the short. Thanks for making my night.

[@RexyAnimates.-.]

Totally using this method for a raptor cosplay! Tysm

You did an awesome job with the self leveling head😍soooo inspiring!

[@GlowBean_Studios]

I'm inspired to make dresses/suits now, particularly dinosaur inspired outfits :) Corythosaurus, Lambeosaurus, Parasaurolophus, Gorgosaurus, Troodon, Therizinosaurus, and so on :)

[@keithramsay5987]

I love your short form vids and would love to see more like this too , spectacular costume for a quick through together

[@erebosthemogoreg]

You've inspired me to make my own bird costume. I actually like erosion birds lol. I don't care about the meme aspect, just it's overall appearance is what catches the eye for me.

[@MissTwisteddd]

That was the same for me! I hope yours goes well.

[@blueeagle9883]

Looks great. Thank you for being you.

[@Lure-Light]

I love how the body leads the head, I feel like birds do that mostly since thay have such a wide field of view

[@solomonbuster7895]

It turned out nice and you really dream a lot about mythology

[@anothernate3302]

Dude. That rocks.

[@maggpiprime954]

This is very cool, thank you for sharing this project!

SUBSCRIBED! This channel makes some pretty dang badass cosplay and dedication for whole thing rather than just the facial makeup.

[@MissTwisteddd]

Well thank you so much! There will be plenty more to come!

[@elvinmateo6408]

cute white birb video idea: theres people in the potion shop looking around and youre helping a customer, suddenly they start touching things, you warn them not to, then like a small explosion or someone turns into a rabbit or something and you sigh or say something silly xD and you can just put in a sound effect it doesnt have to be a scene change xDDD

[@St4r.b4ttz]

Gonna do this! Can't get the bobbles as it's almost summer, but I have a small stress ball I can cut in half and paint. And I'll prolly just make the head and wear it as a mask! (Paint the cardboard, attach some white fur for lining at the edges, attach elastic, tada!)

[@ghoste3991]

"I'm a very normal person" your house in the background makes a very contradicting point.

[@ghoste3991]

Like there's bottles and plants and a random decorative kettle and I'm pretty sure that's a taxidermied crocodile head.

[@MissTwisteddd]

Oh yes, that was definitely sarcastic from the start haha! @@ghoste3991

[@arkham67]

That was a fun build and an interesting look into your “bird” brain. Some fantastic quick fix techniques borne from years of accumulated skill. Thanks.

Paper towel & wood glue works great too!

[@MoneyPennyMakes]

[@EsmayLiebke]

That head attachment is so genius! Such a fluid and interesting movement with just some string! I'm honestly mind-blown by that, and that it still holds so well!

[@MissTwisteddd]

Thank you! I was inspired by those bobble-head ornaments. I have an idea on how to expand on it for a new project too!

[@cudwieser3952]

Off topic (your content is seriously impressive BTW) but have you ever thought of doing a few short stories for your characters, some short serials and episodes to bring your creations even more to life?

Fascinating! I was wondering what you used for the pivot point, but a bit of string/wire with balancing weights makes a ton of sense. The final product is shockingly good!

And to be weird and kinky is a wonderful thing keep doing what you're doing because you're gonna make something of yourself and I love you work your sincerely your old man I'm model for fun and enjoy what I do I'm so bothered what other people think or say I just enjoy it and they should do the same you're a brilliant artist I am and I think that you're going to be even better

[@comedicjune4365]

On AI, I think it works best as inspiration for art, not a replacement. Also this costume is amazing, like wow!

My thoughts exactly! Use it for ideas or conceptual stuff, not published as art, and no software should be given art that the artist hasn't consented to using in the machine learning.
