Pretending I'm on the Great Pottery Throwdown because I'm obsessed. Pt. 5

[@Humblerbumble]

He looks like a little monster from Where the Wild Things Are, I love him!!

[@hoppingwren]

I love this strange creature, very Pan. You did the eyes really well, eyes on ceramic sculpture can be a bit hit and miss. This creature has kind eyes. Watching you (and also Throwdown) has got me so enthusiastic for pottery again. I put it aside these last few years due to moving house a lot, and workshop time at my local pottery almost doubled in price, but now I'm confident to do my own thing and my first task back into it will be a set of feature tiles for my new house - thanks for your recent tiles video and all your content!

[@PotterytothePeople]

yay! I’m glad to hear you getting back to it! Pricing are going up everywhere 😵‍💫 maybe you can make at home and just rent their kilns?

[@lunarsolstice83]

Totally adorable gnome! Not so scary, but I think he’ll take good care of your garden😊

[@PotterytothePeople]

I’m expecting a 50% greater harvest this year with him watching ❤️

[@NightsAndDays]

@@PotterytothePeople it should also cause a 20% agility debuff to agressive from zombies and wild plants

[@Nao_Craft]

So gorgeous, love your little goat gnome gargoyle!

[@moonbasket]

What a funky little guy! I love it so much. I really like all the different animal details and the wash really looks cool.

[@Kittyintheraiyn]

I also love goats, they're pretty great! Love doggo's reaction, what this?? I would absolutely love to see this little guy in a few years time, after he's weathered a few winters. I bet he'll grow moss.

[@PotterytothePeople]

yes!! i put him on a mossy patch so I really hope he grows some in time :)

[@xingcat]

It's such a great gargoyle! I loved it when you had it covered halfway in plastic. Looked like a cute demon goat in a raincoat.

[@dawn5227]

Hes cute, he actually looks remarkably like a sand creature that could grant wishes from a british tv show called 5 children and it. 😊

[@PeterPanGirl2]

He looks amazing! I want one for my garden now.

[@PotterytothePeople]

yess! i want to make a cute one now 😆

[@katieourmatie8250]

He's got such a lovely face! I hope the outdoors is treating him well

[@lamardon9723]

It just so happened that back in the 70s I had in my hands a gargoyle downspout from the Cathedral of Notre Dame in Paris. It was so cool! 😂

[@elysiumgreene3358]

To me he is super charming & kind looking ❤ a great mascot for Pottery to the People 😁✊️ brilliant work! Thank you for sharing

[@jjjessee245]

Your goat muzzle is excellent. Really tied the gargoyle together.

[@szotyaGD]

you're right, he is SO COOL, i love him so much!! he looks even better in the garden, he fits in so well!

[@LecheVitrineUK]

I think that this is my favourite of the throwdown series!

[@PotterytothePeople]

thank you! 🥰 it was fun for me too

[@melinavazquez1733]

I love it so much 😂 this series is so fun to watch!

[@PotterytothePeople]

thanks! i love him too haha :)

[@rusted_ursa]

I've been having a rough day, but the little plastic babushka wrap around the ears made me laugh with delight.

[@domy6827]

my favourite project so far - how fun!

[@PotterytothePeople]

thank you! it was fun to make 😄

[@Tuamotu]

I loved watching the show but don’t know where to watch it now.

[@melanie_creates]

He’s so freaking cute!! I love him!

[@Handmadebygas]

OMGeeee I just love him and all your projects!!! 🫶🏼

[@marilynjackson5752]

You can build a coil horn holder and add the horns after firing.

[@oldskooljules]

What a lovely little Grotesque

[@gailalbers1430]

when I stayed in Germany I used exactly that yellow groggy clay and it is so great ! Very plastic.

[@jenniferlee330]

He’s just wonderful

[@lorihry6236]

What a great garden protector

[@Teatime-mq6bv]

I first had to look up what a gargoyle is😂, have never heart this before. Buh, they look scary…., my cats would never come home 😢, but yours is a cute one which I would allow to live in my garden . As always: loved to watch you working. Thank you for the great time!

[@amandahodgin9316]

He turned out so good! I love him!

[@longtailedbroadbill]

This is so adorable. I've been in grad school and sooooo busy but I can't wait to get back to pottery. It's so enjoyable. I'm living vicariously through u.

[@PotterytothePeople]

hope you can get back to it soon! thanks for watching ❤️

[@SigneofHorses]

He’s so quirky!! Wonderful. Can’t wait for the next episode!

[@PotterytothePeople]

thanks! it’ll probably be up in 3 weeks :)

[@shelbyim5vaughns]

It makes my day when you post!

[@PotterytothePeople]

aww that is so nice to hear 🥰🥰

[@lornapenn-chester6867]

Not scary! Super cute!❤

[@lshawndavis]

I have loved watching you do these challenges. I hope you will do more as it seems you’re up to other really neat things lately 😃

[@barbarab285]

In addition to the technical details, you do an excellent job walking us through your thought process. He looks great in your yard. Thank you.

[@JennaSten]

i love this piece, it's so charming. I recently attempted a few smaller sculptural pieces and did suffer cracks. So nice to see this one come out without any!

[@paulineerusert-schwartz3608]

He turned out great! I love how goaty he is!

[@jessemiggins803]

I love him. He’s amazing.

[@nezbut7]

hahaha i love how he looks at 20:00 when hes in his lil outfit

[@krissader4855]

I really like the tail too. This is living. kind of oddly amazing.

[@mezufall]

So cute! And I love the texture!

[@PotterytothePeople]

thank you! yes the texture really saved it 😆

[@danaology.]

It definitely gives me the creeps! Well done!

[@krissader4855]

I really like the tail too. This is living. Oddly amazing.

[@celloafterdark4173]

14:23 he looks like a goron from zelda. I love him already!

[@lucyrosepetal]

That looks really cool. Wouldn't it look even cooler if it had marble green eyes with the goat like pupil. 🐐🐐🐐

[@itsjencopeland9178]

This came out amazing!

[@PotterytothePeople]

thank you!! ❤️

[@Solsiva]

Very cute. Be interested to see how he weathers out there for a while.

[@Dove96]

So sweet, love the process. Thanks for sharing.

[@LaLaArtStudio]

Oh I'm so excited to see your next video in the series. I've been patiently waiting! Thank you 🙏 I'm excited to watch you and your new creation 😍 **UPDATE** He's adorable!! 🥰 I love how he became ❤ you did a great job with adapting while creating 🎉 you've inspired me to try to make one for my own garden 🏡 I'll tag you when I am able to make mine. 😊🎨 Art'On 🎨😊

[@PotterytothePeople]

please do! i want to make more gnomes now haha maybe cuter ones this time though 😄

[@touisbetterthanpi]

Im obsessed with him! Would love to see you make more stuff like this. Also remember not to let him freeze!

[@GarryAndrews_]

Love it! Did you know gargoyles were the part of the roof/gutter that had water pass out of it. Think Gargoyle / think gargle. What you made is a Gruesome. A decorative figure. Regardless, it’s awesome. Love your work.

[@lateciamadethis]

I like him. Everyone should have a garden goat-goyle

[@alimay1011]

Turned out great!

[@phyllisgriffin5933]

Love your little buddy!

[@yumnuska]

I’m very impressed with “trust the process”, and the difference from the raw form to an actual mfing goat (goatgoyle?). I’ve been fighting with my own problem (programming, you’re one of my decompression channels) and I think that’s my approach tomorrow. Thanks!

[@ace.of.space.]

im in love with this creature

[@lindseybotelho]

I'm obsessed with him! Sooo cute

[@clairemorgan2093]

Thanks for sharing. It was great to watch !!

[@clairemorgan2093]

Gorgeous!!

[@charlottesmom]

OMG! I absolutely love him!!! ❤😊

[@stephanieeilert6616]

He is gorgeous!!!

[@PotterytothePeople]

aww thank you :)

[@Artemesia_]

I used black iron oxide yesterday for the first time. I’m excited to see how it turns out. Keep up the great work!

[@PotterytothePeople]

yuhu! thanks for watching!

[@nurdan17]

To be honest, I didn’t like it at all at the beginning when you started constructing it. But as you progressed and put in all the texture details and arms and etc, I loved it! Especially it’s final version is I think super cute- not scary at all. But it is true that it’s a weirdo 😂 Great job as always and I love watching your videos!

[@PotterytothePeople]

thank you! yes it was a very TRUST THE PROCESS moment 😂😂 I’m glad you liked the little weirdo in the end though ☺️

[@AnaBela1990]

oaau i love this!👏 super cool project

[@PotterytothePeople]

thank you! it was fun!

[@imahumdinger77]

I love goats as well so I'm finding him quite adorable

[@Engwadur]

What a cutie, reminds me of Toriel from Undertale

[@noan21]

Very Nice!

[@bubbubsammie11]

Love this!!!

[@lynndonnelly6471]

Fabulous 🤩

[@lalaoak]

I LOVE HIMMMMM

[@bojanalukic8515]

He's so cute!

[@PotterytothePeople]

thank you! ❤️

[@nancyseavitt1587]

Adorable ❤

[@TheSkibidiRyker]

i love it!!! i love going to sleep to your videos

[@helgavoorneveld1530]

Lol so cute not scary at all 😂 maybe angry eyes or some sharp fangs would have made him scarier or claws instead of hands but who cares?? Absolutely adorable 🥰

[@duqueartist3026]

Love it!

[@mackinliemaynard1081]

I LOVE HIM

[@bernadette7084]

Hi Mia, I'm VERY new to pottery. Just wondering why you would use coils for this project instead of slab? Berni from Australia 🙂

[@DeathMonky22]

does this creator put any grog in her clay? every ep i've seen from her has only been with new and smooth clay. just thought i'd ask, because this is the 1st time i've seen the extruder and it came out so smooth i couldn't notice anything else but clay in the extrusions!

[@ixchelssong]

Lol I'm getting all stressed out about the size! 😅😅

[@PotterytothePeople]

yes! i am constantly worried about things fitting in my kiln 😭

[@ixchelssong]

@Pottery to the People I worked in a pottery studio for a time. We had 2 much deeper kilns. (Your original idea would have fit easily.) But there were definitely times when we had to be mindful about the size of pieces.

[@charlottesmom]

@@ixchelssong, I'd definitely have to ask my studio owner if something of this size would be acceptable even though they have 2 kilns, (one is huge and the other is slightly smaller). Don't want to hog the kiln. 😆

[@jaynelacore2269]

adorable

[@spicylemon4426]

Hes in the dream blunt rotation for sure.

[@dejahdanger]

I love him.

[@PotterytothePeople]

thank you!

[@mayochupenjoyer]

it’s giving toriel from undertale a little

[@shilpasharma9004]

Very nice , am your greatest fan from India, I also like all clay products and learning and will create very soon something for Diwali

[@rianantony]

Gotta love a garden devil

[@caracaes]

This creature looks friendly and adorable but at the same time it looks like it would kick your ass if you do something it doesn't like.

[@isabellazenkl3830]

HE’S SO CUTE

[@lauraserwe864]

He turned out so good. I love his tail and the little horns. But you didn’t name him.

[@justg1226]

He is a cute little Gnomer.

[@benjaminkaufman3887]

How come you don't use slip when you join parts?

[@PotterytothePeople]

no need when the clay is so wet ☺️

[@Gingy50]

Looks great, looks like a goat ❤

[@chrisinkansas8507]

My (one) experience with black iron oxide was that it turned red from firing. Should I expect different at higher temps?

[@PotterytothePeople]

Are you sure you weren’t using red iron oxide? Honestly I’m not sure I’ve just begun experimenting with it. I’m sure temp has something to do with it though.

[@chrisinkansas8507]

@@PotterytothePeople I'll have to do some more experienting. It was the black variety. I've splashed it on a number of pots as yet unfired. I'll see what happens and let you know ;)

[@chrisinkansas8507]

I guess black iron oxide will give you black or dark gray as long as there is some manganese included. DigitalFire did some experiments where some "synthetic" black iron oxides come out maroon. "Some form of manganese is needed to get an affordable black burning clay," they say.

[@bajablast7175]

Goat eyes creep me out a lot so yeah I think it’s scary lol

[@GinnyEvergreen]

He reminds me a bit of those weird biblical creatures you see sometimes,,very cool!❤

[@AJBcreative]

Very cool. He looks like he belongs outside under the tree.

[@PotterytothePeople]

he’s very happy outside and hopefully he will grow some moss someday :)

[@moonbasket]

Also, FYI, this video is not in your Pottery Throwdown playlist.

[@ThePathOfAshes]

He kinda looks like the creatures from Where The Wild Things Are!

[@edwardarmstead2306]

Vry cool

[@diannaflynn8209]

At what height is your extruder?

[@Karen-gw6qz]

I was reading the comments before Watch the vídeo and I was thinking about the comments: “is that possible that a gargoyle to be cute?” And them i Watch the vídeo 🤣🤣🤣 very cute! Sorry

[@PotterytothePeople]

hahaha i really tried making it scary I swear 😂😂😂

[@Ribcrickett]

He’s a cute creature but I don’t know about being a gargoyle. Nice job.
