DIY Mummified Dollar Store Bat - Bat Specimen Fauxidermy Corpsing

[@lucidartwerks3441]

You just took $2 worth of prop and materials and transformed it into a $50 prop. Congratulations! Thumbs up!

[@CobwebsandCandlesticks]

Helga looks in fine form. Great way to make a dollar bat look like a real dedicated speciman! The translucent latex is brilliant.

[@MonsterTutorials]

Thanks!

[@rondaherriott]

Love love love! I think I’ll use the latex wing technique for my mini dragon skeleton!

[@MrSpikesterman]

Ronda Herriott, wow I bit that would look awesome on skeleton dragon

[@TheAtariCreep]

Nice job bro. Got the same bat hanging in the threshold of my living room. Might give it some love now. The lady hates it hanging as it is, lets see how she feels after it is fleshed out. lol

[@MonsterTutorials]

Awesome

[@Patrick_Nottingham]

So many ways to corpse. I used to paint it on tissue paper and drape it when I wanted something thin and translucent like those wings. Lots of ways to to get there.

[@cherryshrimp4120]

Bloody brilliant. That was such an awesome tutorial. I love watching you create with very little expense you make everything look amazing. Thanks for giving your time to teach us. Keep up the great work and I'm looking forward to seeing what you do next.

[@MonsterTutorials]

Thank you!

[@aggiechrismer4739]

Love it. I made the mummified fairy you showed us for my sister's xmas present, it was a big hit. Thanks

[@nanuq83]

Awesome Christmas present!! That would of become my favorite present ever. lol I hope she loved it!!

[@glenngriffon8032]

i am so happy i found this channel. you have a gift for taking cheapo dollar store bottom self crap and making it look like stuff you'd pay a much higher price for.

[@ComputerEatingMalware]

You should do a Fiji mermaid with this same technique! It would look amazing!!

[@MonsterTutorials]

That's a great idea!

[@rhysnybo3420]

Wow I love how you made the Bat Zombie very authentically realistic good work I love what you do as a monster creator your creations are very top notch and professional 🏆✨

[@dcolorado7483]

I really like your work and sensibility as to how you do things

[@aninXasil]

I bend my skeleton bones by placing a hot soldering iron on the joint and then bending it into shape. Lovely tutorials and I have learned a bunch about corpsing and making it even more realistic with the dried out looking skin.

[@double_digit_life.9268]

Na na na na na na bat pants!

[@ArizonaGhostriders]

Love all the detail you achieved!

[@AFarmerCalledChicken]

I have that same bat in my room right above my bed! I bought it knowing I’d use it for something eventually, so I think my little buddy will be great to test out the trash bag method on.

[@pamelaleehendon7381]

I just found you on KZbin. And I am so happy I did. I love everything I've seen so far!

[@aprillongerbeam6639]

I am absolutely obsessed with your video's! This bat is awesome...

[@CajunRose]

You are quite the artist. This is so cool looking. Thank you for the tutorials.

[@artistofthedarkness7621]

Last Halloween I tried making a diseased zombie-like bat using this same skeletal bat model. Except I used your toilet paper mache technique from your shrunken head tutorial which also inspired me. Keep up the amazing work, I love it!

[@Kindred500]

Love this! And I love how the thunder rolled as you went to hang it up, that was epic timing!

[@TuckerSP2011]

I love the way the wings came out! Great job using commonly found items!

[@rozanidesignsmasquerade7050]

I love it when you go batty❣️It's awesomely creepy good❗️A quite unique addition to your mummified creatures.

[@lisaandfam4009]

Yes yes yes! I just saw all of these bats at the dollar store and I wanted to get them but didn't know what I would do with them. Now I know. Thank you!!

[@lisaandfam4009]

P.s. I think it is so sweet that you think about everyone else and if they may have a latex allergy.

[@Midnightpigeon666]

Thankyou for another epic tutorial!! I’ve always wondered what I could to to improve all those skeleton animals at Halloween!

[@HiddeneyeInc]

you might consider using the superglue baking powder method on your joints to make them more structurally sound. the super glue your are using currently gets brittle with age.

[@adriannabcustomfurniture]

I haven't watched this tutorial since you put it out! Rewatching because there aren't enough new tutorials out yet AND I love the way you did mummified creatures 😊🦇🎃💀

[@eduardohowcomedf6971]

greetings from southern California. Dollar store buy glitter glue . different color selections of glitter works .

[@easyontheeyes78]

That bat looks incredible

[@eatinoutinvegaswithchip5345]

I'm hooked. I could watch your videos all day.

[@GameMastersGuild]

Randomly dropped by searching for new ideas and ways to decorate the players dungeon at my store. Liked what I saw and subscribed! I love Halloween!

[@raevonday4197]

I am a really big fan of your work. Love it. I already have the bat and supplies, so I will do this.

[@christinadavison2783]

I really like how it turned out. Great job with the wings!

[@MonsterTutorials]

Thanks!

[@susanalberts5334]

You're so amazing I watch you for a couple years now and I always look forward to your!!

[@feralmagick7177]

Hanging the bat and spinning it got me xD im dying of laughter. Its such a cool prop. The only thing i qould have added was a touch of corpsing to the top of the head and ears from the back of the neck. Great job and thank you for showing us so many different ways of doing things and still making them look awesome.

[@melissaofnebraska6879]

You have a great talent! I am going to try make this bat! Thank you for the wonderful vidoes!

[@challenger398]

you shoulc have corpsed the head as well! you can get a really cool look of decayed skin around the mouth, and even get cool shrivled eyelids if you cut the plastic over the sockets then heat it

[@DemigodSalt]

I plan on making two of these and putting them in some led lanterns.i also plan on getting one of those big ones from spirit and doing this to that so I can have a big detailed one. Maybe some lights in the eyes. I'll let you know how they turn out!

[@RavensMinis]

This is so so cool! Love your mummyfied/specimen wall. I have this exact same bat hanging behind me in one of my videos where I do up a coffin box with tufted fabric. Might give it a whirl!

[@stacypolk3580]

Brilliant!! Thank you for sharing with us.

[@maribabette2205]

You can also use the heat gun to soften the joints to bend them

[@crosa6820]

He sounds like he is cooking lol “Nice and crunchy right there mhm now let it sit” “Like a hot knife through butter”

[@glutenfreedead]

This is really cool! I have the dollar store bat, but I just made the bone look more realistic

[@shanaynay6652]

So cool. I did the petrified woodland creature with my craft group last year and they loved it. This project will be a huge hit. Thank you for all the inspiring ideas you share.. I wonder if we could use latex gloves for the wings... Hmmmm..

[@jamesanthony8438]

I picked up that same little bat skeleton from Dollar Tree last year and have had it hanging in one of the windows from the blinds ever since. Those stupid ears have been bothering me all this time. Tempted to try Dremeling and sanding the 'bones' out from inside of them. I just don't want to screw it up. It was a nice little prop for a buck. =)

[@Hellbent7069]

Not bad for a dollar and a little time. Well done sir.

[@MonsterTutorials]

Thanks 👍

[@ceewood3358]

SWEET!!! I am Totally trying this....!

[@Gothichallowtrees]

This bat come out awesome.

[@michellepernula872]

I love it! I have lots of them from last year, I use black mesh material and glue but this is better!

[@jessicathunderheart7810]

That looks so cool and very realistic I've actually seen a bat that had died and was in that state of decomposition looks very similar. I really love that rig you made that rotates it do you have a video on how you made that?

[@danamelton1738]

I loved the cute little bat pants lol. Great diy

[@Kat_Nguyen]

🦇I love this mummified bat tutorial. I definitely wanna try and make one of my own.🦇

[@MonsterTutorials]

Thanks!!

[@elimitchell4570]

You are SO talented!!

[@MonsterTutorials]

Thanks!

[@pammcfall3328]

Love this! And how you displayed it very cool!

[@michellepernula872]

Use hot glue to reglue the joint, hardly any wait time. And you can use the heat gun then form it around a stainless steel bowl to shape it

[@ClairesCraftyCorner]

so brilliant ! love it xxx

[@camilleeichorn1]

Amazing tutorials!! Thank you!!

[@jaxonfondren3513]

[@mamagreyeyes]

I was fascinated!

[@johannavargas7046]

That's Awesome!! I really love your channel. Greetings from Colombia

[@MonsterTutorials]

Gracias!

[@mistpepper]

I just found your channel. I love this bat tutorial. I'm a novice and 68 years old. Do you think this is doable for me. I make custom wreaths and this would be awesome on a wreath. I can't find the latex you used some. I find some latex on Amazon prime. Your input would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

[@SakoresDark]

I want to do this with the largest fake bat skeleton I can find....

[@MonsterTutorials]

That sounds like an awesome idea!

[@dertodesking8379]

Amazing! It looks so good! 🦇

[@lipstickjunkie1081]

You are so creative... Love these vids!

[@torquess454]

You’re a genius, I love your tutorials 😍

[@jenniferp.1485]

This is really awesome , I love bats!!

[@bertiestclr]

Looks Awe-Mazing! Can you add some type of tree branch, foliage, lightening? I will spruce my bat up in a large shadow box with twigs, lightening. You give great tips. Thanks from Texas.

[@umbrella_seeds6832]

BAT PANTS WHOOT WHOOT!!

[@LinecookThorJamiethaxton]

Awesome work as always my friend keep up the great work

[@MonsterTutorials]

Thanks

[@LinecookThorJamiethaxton]

You are very welcome

[@LinecookThorJamiethaxton]

Awesome work

[@claudettemiskell2763]

I totally love watching you. Your work is really art, and your humor is dark and hilarious. You aren’t bad yourself either😉 Tell your wife not to worry, I’m happily married and much too old for you. Maybe I could request you corpse me when I’m gone from this plain. I wouldn’t mind my corpses body scaring folks fo a few centuries. Maybe you could add an additional line to your work.🤪 do you get to do this kind of artistry in your day job. Gotta go watch your other videos, many of them more than once. Blessings🙏🏼

[@Diana-wg1tm]

That was really good video period and the bat turned out perfect

[@dawnziemer7757]

This is a wicked cool tutorial!

[@MonsterTutorials]

Thanks!

[@CharonsNightmare]

Since i couldn't find any dropcloth atm I'll try to use cling film or thin garbage bags. Will report the outcome! ^^

[@frankgallegos8048]

Nice work 👍

[@wolfman75]

Another Awsome Tutorial Edwardo👍😎 What kind of glue are you using from the tubes? Also is there a Link to get it? Thank You For Sharing Your Talent With Us!!!!

[@tcan4959]

Awesome as always

[@annan9651]

I love this technique, it always comes out looking so awesome! Would you have any advice for someone who doesn't have access to a heat gun?

[@MonsterTutorials]

Shrink wrap may work if wrapped tight.

[@MsShanerussell]

I got my heat gun/ embossing heater at Michaels. They cost about $20-30 and they often offer 40%-50% off coupons that would make it really affordable. It’s been a very useful tool to have for craft projects.

[@BeautyBeatdown]

Hello yeah this is freaking amazing.

[@karlatapia7710]

AWESOME!! What did you hang it on that turns?

[@dilynnvee374]

Absolutely love it!

[@jman7100]

Dude,that's cool,awesome,keep on going!!l

[@bladeanangel]

Came off the bbq like the 3 amigos

[@annmanzo]

love it, love it, love it. Where do you get the liquid latex?

[@Hagoracle]

Love this!!🖤🖤🖤

[@MonsterTutorials]

Thanks!

[@shanemcknight767]

I rely like your work.

[@helpmerhonda5014]

This is awesome! 🦇

[@sirtblairjr]

Hi Sir, I really like your channel and videos. Very creative 👌. You should get your son in the creative process in making little monsters with you😁? That would look to do?.. Thanks for your channel 👍 and videos.. make some steampunk stuff too.

[@amykelly933]

That's badass!

[@creationsbybeccalynn2263]

I don't know if anyone has asked this but I don't have a heat gun so would a hair dryer work to do a shrink wrap?

[@missunknown5572]

very cool fun video

[@Spiceyspiney]

This is amazing!!

[@alexzandrascott481]

how would we go about doing it if we dont have a heat gun? lighter???

[@candiwalkowski7480]

Cool gaffe!

[@ediebluntzer5185]

could you have used liquid latex as a glue to hold the sheet of latex over the wings intact? btw, great tutorial

[@MonsterTutorials]

Definitely. Takes a little longer to set though.

[@LisaEHerzog]

Fantastic!!!

[@NickCasey]

if you sprinkle the superglue with baking soda and it cures instantly, no need for rubber bands or waiting!

[@MonsterTutorials]

Thanks for that tip!

[@maribelrivera5563]

Bad ass job!!

[@spookygeek9459]

Looks great looks amazing 🦇🦇🦇🦇🧛🏻‍♀️🔮🔮
