[@tomorvalentine]

Since the fur fabric was so annoying to work with I think better way to make a furry creature would be to make wefts from acrylic yarn. You brush out strands of the yarn with a wire pet brush and then glue the fibres into wefts, which are easier to manipulate and stick down with glue than the fabric. It's a technique used often by doll customisers to make the dolls hair. You can straighten the wefts with a hair straighteners on low heat, and style the fibres easily with water and a toothbrush. Anyway, I thought this sculpture was weirdly cute aha 🍪

Ingenious using the gingerbread man from Shrek XD. I laughed so hard when you did this because usually you can't catch him. BTW noicely done on cookie monster I love how you did the fur as it make it look more like him. Yes you could added fur but what fun is that torture right? XD

[@nekrataali]

@@mothra_mothra Hobby shops (or anywhere you can buy hobby supplies) that specialize in miniatures, model trains, and model cars carry the skinny masking tape. Tamiya is a well-known brand of hobby tools used for gunpla and historic vehicles. They make a variety of masking tapes ranging from 40mm wide all the way down to 1mm. The UV resin is likely another hobby brand and usually comes with the little handheld UV lamp you saw in this video. I know Greenstuff World makes resin kits that comes with the lamp, or you can buy the lamp separately. A more common device used are UV resin lamps used for doing nails at beauty salons (which are also great for curing 3D prints).

For anyone wondering, Adam saying Cookie Monster’s name is Sid isn’t just a bit. In a song that recounts his first time eating a cookie he says “Me think me name was Sid.” which I find interesting because maybe he’s been called Cookie Monster so much that he sometimes forgets his true name. There are probably more instances of his name being shown in Sesame Street lore but that’s the only one I know of.

[@3DPlasticFantasy]

5:27 That look of cookie monster starring right into your soul, will haunt you in your dreams. 😱

The amount of detail and storytelling in this one makes it one of my absolute favorites. Every little cookie’s pose and motivation is so original and funny, and even the editing details like the chair falling over and the condensation in the pot, since you had just boiled a bunch of fur into clay, after all. Absolutely wonderful 💙

But you really think of 3d environments and flesh them out well. it’s a small detail but i loved it n

[@WhatnotArt]

My cousin loves sesame street, and even though this isn’t even really that scary, the notion of the cookies being alive, and Cookie Monster’s general indifference towards this matter just makes it creepy enough that I would feel bad about showing this to her. Still super cool sculpture, and a really accurate representation of Cookie Monster. It looks so good!

[@Flawestruck]

Every single one of your sculptures are masterpieces, but for some reason this Cookie Monster is my all time favorite. Maybe because he was my favorite character as a child. I still remember that VHS I watched over and over again until it couldn't be watched anymore. "C is for cookie, that's good enough for me! Oh, cookie cookie cookie starts with C!" Whatever the reason, watching you bring Cookie Monster and his Gingerbread victims to life made me smile and warmed my heart.

[@user-vu8be4jl6f]

For the fur, you could have carefully snipped at the clay with a pair of scissors. That creates a sort of reasonable fur texture and it's considerably faster than the individual wormy deelies method you used.

[@nekrataali]

The fur looks phenomenal but was seriously the most convoluted way of doing it lol. Way easier to use the "gouge starting from the bottom and going up" technique.

[@IICubeII]

Wonder how easily you could make clay "fur" just snipping at it with scissors? That's the first things that came to my mind anyway.

[@Just1Nora]

NerdEcrafter used to make pretty interesting grass or fur texture by just kinda roughing up the clay doing tiny circles with the pointed stylus held at maybe a 35-45° angle to the clay.

[@scottmantooth8785]

*might be too delicate or fragile to handle*

[@SnugMuffinn]

That miiigght work, but would be less stable and the tips would be prone to burning

I think that would depend on the angle, size of the cut, thickness of material, ect. I don't think it'd be more prone to any damage than what's shown here.
