I love to watch a sculp the face and hands Its so satisfying to see it come together..

[@StiltbeastStudios]

Im glad you enjoy it.

[@robylove9190]

As someone with no sculpting talent, I am always in awe of how quickly you make your sculpts look so fantastic ❤

[@StiltbeastStudios]

well, the video is sped up lol.

[@asmith5090]

Word I second that 😊

[@ashleyengebretson6965]

​@@StiltbeastStudiosstill amazing

[@PumpkinPails]

It's so difficult! I'm trying to teach myself to sculpt, but coming from someone that's only ever worked in 2D I find it hard to wrap my head around it.

[@Suebear6157]

Wrap your picture around it. Imagine how it would look if the picture stretched around a form

[@jessiepapabear4272]

I always Love KZbin Wednesdays, they always feel like a Friday! 😂

[@StiltbeastStudios]

indeed!

[@sheetfox2795]

IT'S KZbin FRIDAY!

[@zamnelna]

IT’S KZbin SATURDAY! For us Aussies…lol.

[@pjpumpkin3370]

I love the fact we see the do's and, don'ts. That we see you recover from this and, that. Instead of edited to make you look like you're perfect every time. That's what makes you videos so real and, so bloody impressive.

[@StiltbeastStudios]

Im 100% winging it lol. I have been for 30+ years of making stuff, so I know a lot of what to avoid from past mistakes, and I try to apply my "knowns" in new ways to new materials so there will be bumps along the way that hopefully I help others avoid.

[@My2KrazyKidz]

awesome! sitting here painting my first spray foam project, a giant spider, after being inspired by your work!

[@StiltbeastStudios]

Sounds great! wish I could see it!

[@Deathbysnusnu125]

I'm working on a sombrero for my giant skeleton. I was debating about different materials. I was not sure what would handle weather well and be light enough though. I used chicken wire hoping to strengthen it enough to avoid being torn apart in the wind. Almost done. Just need another can or 2.

[@StiltbeastStudios]

very cool! Ole!

[@dragonis003]

The way I see it, Frankenstein is a last name. Victor created a son named Adam and they both have the last name of Frankenstein, and just like you can call a friend by their last name, you can call Adam by his last name.

[@Cisco36691]

I love the endless possibilities using this foam! Loved the way Frankie turned out!

[@brandygriffiss]

Thanks for the tip about letting it sit a little longer. That foam stuck to me like melted marshmallows😂😂😂it was a disaster 😮I could not get it off💀 But with perseverance, I made my oogie boogie mask!! Also the scarecrow you posted last week, I made one from vines and twigs and it turned out amazing!! Always love to watch you create!!

[@StiltbeastStudios]

in the videos, you can easily miss me setting a five minute timer after I spray it with water. so awesome about the scarecrows! I love that!

[@brandygriffiss]

@@StiltbeastStudios Thanks to you, my Halloween decorations this year will be OVER THE TOP! I've already gotten compliments from the neighbors and only have the scarecrow up😂

[@oggyreidmore]

Around the 23 minute mark, I realized how much the sculpt was really looking like Michael Berryman. He is one of the great sci-fi and horror icons and would make an excellent Frankenstein monster IMHO.

[@StiltbeastStudios]

he is tall as well, he would make a great frank you are right, Im surprised he never did the role.

[@MRaadesign]

Really impressive! Here is a foam tip: To make the surface of any foam more durable. You can use the BMC formula of 3 parts. Acrylic paint, Modpodge and water. BUT, I have discovered that if you use the same formula but make it 4 parts: Acrylic paint, Modpodge, Water and Minwax Polycrylic Clear Coat. A thin coat of this mixture will dry in about 10 minutes. Speed it up with a hairdryer works better. Give the foam 3 or 4 thin coats and let it completely air dry for a few hours. You will be surprised at how HARD the surface has become.

[@StiltbeastStudios]

very cool , I will try that. this is a pretty dense and durable foam as is.

[@MRaadesign]

@@StiltbeastStudios Yes. Spray foam is much more dense than regular styrofoam. The process I mentioned was created for regular styrofoam. BTW: I shared your spray foam sculpting vid to one of my FB groups. I know they will like it.

[@darkhillseuropeanmountsLLC]

There ya go again Allen killing it!!! Love it brother keep up the amazing work

Love the Frankenstein lock-tite head and hands. This is an awesome idea for my laboratory for Halloween.

[@rhysnybo3420]

What the heck wow epic absolutely love the Frankstein's head and arm set it's very well done and right to the classic original movie of Frankenstein this one is the top best while watching it gave me some cool classics that could be some cool make ideas like The Mummy, Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde, the Incredible Hulk, the Hunchback of Notradame, Slimer from the Ghost Busters overall I absolutely love the whole Frankstein head and arm set make

I remember the up all night horror movies from the 80s- love em

[@TheKiaiKid]

I have been binge watching the channel all year. These foam masks are so simple and fun. And though the media does come with sacrifice the end result is still quite good. I use a dremel and random orbital sander to smooth out my foam head/masks and works but is quite tedious extra work.Thank you for sharing your techniques with all of us. You are so kind to do so and a true artisan.

[@77dcoolman]

Thank you for the inspiration. I used the loocite to make a witch's head. My kids love it.

[@StiltbeastStudios]

very cool! Happy Halloween!

[@StiltbeastStudios]

I have a few more up my sleeve!

[@raymitchell9736]

I liked the commentary along with the build, and I liked the tips sprinkled throughout this build... I'm definitely making something today. Earlier this year I purchased some staring statues (like Disney used in the library) where the the heads of the busts would follow everyone when they walked past... now I need to make a place for them in my haunt.

[@StiltbeastStudios]

Glad you enjoyed! I love the following busts- such old school fun!

I love your style, Alan you always make such awesome stuff like magic with that foam. When I was a kid would go through the Funhouse, at our local fair and it took five seconds to go through, but I love them and some of the monsters that were in there remind me of the stuff you make with the spray foam, I love all that stuff Just the way they look they’re creepy in their own right. Thank you Alan 🤘🏻🎃🤘🏻🩷💀😱 you’re an amazing man you’ll always be my hero👍🥇

I found that wetting plastic and setting on the fresh foam and waiting for the timer, it creates a smooth surface.

[@knowyourjoe8826]

On one side note and in an attempt to make some sort of meaningful contribution, for me, when I am attempting to do something of this nature and I look at it and think it just needs "one more little thing" it is time for me to stop. Typically when I proceed past that point I find myself wishing I would have stopped. It took me a long time to realize this. Your results may vary! LOL.

[@StiltbeastStudios]

normally Im glad I pushed- but I am in no way a perfectionist so we each have different stopping points loi.

Hello Allen! Ive been watching your videos and been inspired! TO BUILD STUFF! I took art class in High School and College, but it was never as much fun as This! I made a set of Demon wings, and horns out of Spray Foam to wear to Renaissance Festival.. strangers were complimenting me.. My question today is what glue can I use to permanently bond pool noodle to cardboard.. and withstand weather...?

[@tinawelch5179]

Hey, It's a legit question. Ive tried glue gun, and I ended up with 2nd degree burns and blisters on my fingers.. I'm not a Patreon.. do I have to be????

[@StiltbeastStudios]

well, card board itself wont really withstand weather by itself. and pool noodles are really hard to glue- Id use a mechanical bond like zipties if there was any way to do that- if you can only use glue then Id use contact cement.

[@tinawelch5179]

Ok, thankyou! I appreciate the feedback!!

This looks so good!! Have you ever played around with a latex layer on top of the sculpted foam? I'm not sure if it would cure, but i'd love to encapsulate a form for ease of painting and building onto it...

[@StiltbeastStudios]

they are coming, very soon!

[@Squatchyfamcreations]

This reminds me of the foam clay stuff. It’s not really easy to work with. I feel this canned stuff is gonna be easier. Gotta try it. For now I use old clothes, stuffing and yarn to make masks. Yarn is getting a little too pricey.

[@StiltbeastStudios]

its a really fun medium, just respect it- dont breath in the fumes and dont wear it for a few days so it can fully off gas, they say 48 hours. have fun!

[@jonny555ive]

You realize that Frankenstein is the doctor who made "the monster" Frankenstein's monster never had a name. Just an FYI awesome video dude. You got me as a new subscriber, for better or worse. 😅😂😅😂😅 Take care, ~Jonny5🥁

[@StiltbeastStudios]

I guess you didnt watch the whole video lol. Dr. Frankenstein is the dr. and Frankenstein is the monster. You were misinformed. If you draw the monster and show it to a five year old kid in China, they will say Frankenstein. there are thousands of books and movies with the monster on the cover and the label Frankenstein acting as a label. no one made the argument you did till the 1970's but some people ran with it. popular opinion is that the monster is called Frankenstein so it is- even if it was wrong once its been wrong so long its now correct. dr. frankenstein didnt go to 12 years of medical school to be called frankenstein, so they mean the monster is Frankenstein. the monster is his son, so the name is inherited- but Dr. is not inherited, thats earned. Mary Shelly called him frankenstein in an interview so thats what I will go with...can you tell I have monster opinions? lol thanks for the sub!

After it hardens, let's say you want to clean up or square up the chin. Can you use a hobby knife or a break off razor knife to carve or chisel away at it?

[@StiltbeastStudios]

you can, but seal it really well. the skin of the foam is 90 percent of its strength, so I like keeping the original skin in tact.
