👻 I made a tiny LUIGI'S MANSION (ft. music by Qumu)

I made a tiny, spooky Luigi's Mansion miniature from the Nintendo GameCube classic, the eponymous Luigi's Mansion. I also sculpted a very tiny, hideous Luigi, but we don't talk about that. Luigi's Mansion holds a special place in my heart as the first game I ever played on the GameCube (but that's somewhat because it was a launch title and there weren't many other options). Anyway, I like it, okay?? Happy Halloween, everyone!

I see you've mastered the "hide his face so I don't have to sculpt his face" technique.

[@StudsonStudio]

Perhaps I should have taken a note from the Master and lovingly sculpted some glutes to distract from the face.

Your editing and humour is on another lvl! You're constantly cracking jokes and making cool visuals spoofs. And on top of that you're just a god crafting stuff. It all blends so good together, keep going, wowwowowow!

Do you do all the edits yourself too? Oh man if so that’s a crazy amount of time and energy, tons of respect coming your way and great job love everything about your stuff, the humor and the way the edit wraps it like a tortilla

[@sethlindgren1780]

This is rad! Luigi's mansion was the first game I beat without my older brother having to help me haha. Good stuff and happy Halloweeeeen!!

[@StudsonStudio]

That's a spooky first entry into gaming without your older brother's help. Thanks and Happy Halloween!

[@Sammyyaam]

This was the first game I beat too!

[@g.t.3186]

Same for me! I felt so proud of myself lol

[@HyperWolf]

This is also the first game my younger brother beat without me, his older sister. Interesting. I remember him being so proud of himself. It was great. 😁👻

[@brianahawkins8124]

@@StudsonStudio Oh my Ghost Stories Luigi's Mansion looks AWESOME!!! Question will you be able to make Luigi's Mansion 3 the spooky hotel version? See you on your next video, & Happy Halloween. :)

[@dasmeisterlein]

This is so sick! The humor, the production the filming, the sound fx.. the animations everything! You are a genius mr. studson!

[@Kids_Scissors]

0:14 I love that subtle reference to Edgar Allen Poe's "Heart Beneath the Floorboards" story

[@noahplayssomegames]

Now, that’s a boo-tiful build! Spook-tacular editing too! Luigi’s Mansion was always a favorite of mine. The ghoulish, grandish design of the green, Victorian, mansion has always been an intriguing game setting for me. I can’t wait for the release of Waluigi’s Dreamhouse! - Noah

[@Too_late.exe120]

🤣🤣🤣 I see what you did there You said "boo-tiful" instead of beautiful

[@Haiyken]

Luigi's Mansion was one of my favorite on the GC as a child, such a great departure from the usual Mario games. The sound design was just amazing, music so memorable!

[@StudsonStudio]

I remember having my mind blown when Luigi started singing along with the music AND how his singing wavered when his health was lower. Loved it.

[@andre_601]

Agree. One of my all-time favourites for the GameCube alongside Wind Waker. Luigi's Mansion 3 is a wonderful return to the roots imo so if you didn't already, you should try playing it.

[@beeandbear]

This turned out so freaking cool. And yaaaaayyyy! That shout out! Well worth the wait. You never disappoint with your builds or commentary.

[@JayFolipurba]

I love your style of video. Not enough you create a super complicated thing but you edit all the extra stuff into the video and make all these jokes, while you're crafting. And an original song at the end that means to me: the more patreons, the more beauty shots

[@emmabruh]

I literally never get over how good these always turn out, insane

[@windsyDschultz]

You’re like a nerdy, less hyper Miracah Tewers. Which is a very specific type of content that I can’t actually define but means I now have two favorite KZbin channels. In my dreams someday there would be a crossover/collab between you guys and then I could die happy, knowing the ultimate crafting video exists, my heart filled with subtle bemusement at the constant stream of obscure references, deadpan wit, and unexpected self-depreciating humor.

[@emmaluu]

if micarah and studson did a collab there would be no reason to even try to be funny anymore. everyone would have to pack up and go home because they just,,,, would win

[@meutians5943]

Omg i was thinking the same thing!! His narration reminds me of her a lot

[@scarydays6528]

imagine he makes a prop for her to use and she makes an outfit ??? would be so good.

[@Levi_The_One_The_Only]

Holy crap that's so true

[@bluebell560]

Both of them are so playful and humble that sometimes you'd forget how actually good they are at what they do.

[@missminilife]

I love this build. I’m just still sitting here trying to figure out how to change my plane stick into a spooky stick! 😁

[@StudsonStudio]

It's tricky, practice on simple twigs in public by picking them up and screaming at them as loud as you can.

[@bellacataline8506]

I love this! I would to see the Mystery Shack from Gravity Falls! It would be really interesting I think

[@dancinswords]

These videos are so well produced. It's almost like if Captain Disillusion made custom miniatures instead of visual effects breakdowns

[@lyykong]

whenever you make such beautiful artworks from random recycling and even saving the scraps for later, it’s the most inspiring thing ever. It comes to show that you dont have to have expensive supplies to make something beautiful. inspired me to start making things from my trash as well.

[@beatrizgioielli]

Totally agree

[@johnnyshore9740]

My god the quality in every video that comes from this channel is absolutely breathtaking! Such a nice cosplay!

[@Seekersgirl200]

I just need to say that the “cremated hamster” bit is what got you my like 😎👍🏻 But seriously. This is a beautiful build!! Very spooky! I can’t even imagine how much time this must have taken. And A+ for the humor. You are absolutely hilarious!

[@nardo218]

your eye for potential to transform and connect tiny detailed things is an olympic level talent.

[@neonmushroom1]

The amount of effort that went not only into the model but also the quality of the video, is absolutely astounding!

[@Marialla.]

I feel bad that it took me so long to find this channel! You're a real master of these arts. (Crafting, editing, humor, and somehow inventing a way to make the credits enjoyable!)

[@CajunCraftastrophe]

Nice tip with the Poltergust 3000. The cobblestone texture of the fence is excellent. Editing=Perfect, SFX=Fantastic, VFX=Spooky. Addicted to crack. : ) The cremated hamster measurement system has always been easier for me to wrap my head around than Imperial. The final build looks incredible. Amazing work all around.

[@DaTunaGoddess]

"Im going to build Luigi's mansion from Luigi's mansion" Ah yes the floor here is made out of floor. Pretty cool builds as always

[@rhinuu045]

[@shibalady206]

"Two cremated hamsters' worth ..." I feel Caitlin, aka AskAMortician, would approve of that system of measurement.

[@dianasaurstudio]
