Toy to Monster Kit bash | Monster Bash III Collab

Good morning and Happy Halloween!
The monster bash III collab is the largest miniature/modeling/painting/sculpting collab ever! Each creator drew 5 cards, then we each pulled 7 cards and created monsters inspired by our cards. Please be sure to check out my fellow collaborators and see what they've done!
In this video, I kit bash a WWE action figure toy into an eldritch horror creature from your nightmares.

A WWE action figure has never looked more good yet eerie and scary at the same time! Well done Lyla!👍💀

[@MonarchsFactory]

Aaaaaaand now I'm looking for somewhere to include her as an NPC in my campaign. She looks SO GOOD! You basically did tiny miniature makeup! I can't even do that on my own full-sized human head!

[@LylaMev]

Thank you!! Absolutely use her in any way you can! ALSO: I showed my husband that you commented, and he said: OMG DAEL KINGSMILL COMMENTED ON MY WIFES KZbin VIDEO.

[@Zambies]

This was so creative. Really like the way you did the armor. You can never have enough tentacles. Lap kitties 🐱💜

[@LylaMev]

Lap kitties for the win!

[@Craftlngo]

Vaporwave is an awesome Colour scheme for a Cyberpunk style Monster Bash. Sensational result!

[@LylaMev]

Thank you for giving me the word I was looking for!

[@KnarbMakes]

That OSL Is super good, the more I look at it the more interesting it get.

[@BillMakingStuff]

good job Lyla!

[@mindlasher]

It needs 23.7% more tentacles to be from my nightmares... great kitbash. 👍

[@LylaMev]

So close!!!

[@MechanicalFiend]

That tape technique to make the armor was so cool, I've never seen that before! Absolutely love the colors you decided to paint it, turned out awesome with the lights!

[@cryofpaine]

I've seen it used by cosplayers to make costume patterns, but never thought about using it to make patterns for action figures. That was so clever!

[@bettsdn]

This is rad as hell.

[@euansmith3699]

Good grief; the 1/6th scale cosplay armour is amazing; as is the face painting, and the cat cameos. 😻😻😻 The torn-off arm is a great idea.

[@LylaMev]

Thank you!

[@SugarCandyMiniatures]

Action figures always turn into such good monsters with you

[@LylaMev]

I almost want to go buy another and do it again!

[@johnodinsson3635]

Helluva transformation, great work!

[@codelicious6590]

Thats hella good production at the beginning! Holy crap! That trick with the UV resin around the egg timer or whatever was absolutely brilliant! Such a killer idea!

[@dubbingsync]

These are the sort of videos that make me glad the Toy Story universe is not the one we live in. Because it would be like watching torture techniques at points.

[@bernardblack6997]

absolutely wicked!!

[@MonsieurPopu]

Cookie for the eldritch gods

[@juliehamel8330]

This looks great! When using foam, i was a cosplayer seal the texture with some modpodge.

[@missminilife]

This was so interesting! I leaned some new stuff and I looove how it turned out! Happy Monsterbash! That was so fun 😁

[@Berserkerworks]

Giving your figure armour via cosplay techniques is genius. And the synth-wave paint gives so much atmosphere! Badass!

[@LylaMev]

Thank you!

[@portwills]

Yay for tentacles

[@nerdicinspiration3522]

My favorite MonsterBash so far, still making my way through everyone's videos! Onto Miscast next!

[@LylaMev]

That is so kind!

[@Voirreydirector]

Well done, my dear.

[@AllMenAreBerries]

This gives me Slaanesh vibes and im all there for it

[@FrankyDCrafter]

I was scared when you brought up those to go containers 😱 but you made it work!

[@LylaMev]

Here for a good time not for a long time.

[@p-thor]

Always love your cat armour and yes please more face painting

[@rafiqkatana]

Awesome. That color pallet really pops. This is the first of your videos I've watched and it was enjoyable and interesting. Thumbs Up.

[@LylaMev]

Thank you!

[@rafiqkatana]

@@LylaMev What you did with little resources was inspiring to say the least. It gives me a few ideas to do with the younger artists in the family. Subscribed. Thanks for sharing this part of your Art.

[@Nergling]

That is such a wacky kitbash, I love it!

[@redgreen09]

great looking mimni like it and the co star might see more as post it

[@Ernzt8]

Great model!

[@teoiny1]

Would absolutely love a face technique! A great final result. "tentacle time" 😂

[@LylaMev]

Painting faces is one of my favorites!

[@GeartoothLabs]

This this screams hologram to me, like someone is watching security surveillance of this butt kicking lady literally tear apart their people. So good, this piece has some amazing vibes.

[@LylaMev]

That makes it so much darker

[@dennisfoulds3941]

That was great, you are amazing

[@agoodun]

Wow. Very cool video and awesome work. Thank you 😊 👍👍💯💯

[@darrinstanfill6846]

Awsome

[@straxacore]

Slaanesh would be very happy :)

[@BRUSHFORSOUL]

Прекрасная работа! Спасибо за ваш труд!

[@rae_of_enfeeblement]

Great video! This was fun to watch.

[@MaskedRiderChris]

One of these days I'm going to have to try this out, kit bashing an action figure this size into something entirely different, and I will absolutely cite you as inspiration in that realm, Miss Lyla. Most of the time they have lousy paint jobs anyway, so we can improve on that alone, yes? Good work!

[@Raedrie]

This is so cool! I love the colors and the story you made for the model!

[@LylaMev]

Thank you! It means a lot

[@goatmealcookies7421]

Love the creativity!

[@markgnepper5636]

Great stuff friend 👏 👍

[@forrestcrabbe]

🤘🍻🤘

[@FullMetalHamster666]

2:14 Lyla confirms that she waterboards her minis.

[@RaqrexArt]

I had no idea your base action figure was from WWE lol 😂 What a great transformation!!! Loved your monster bash and love the awesome 80s style graphics you used throughout the video 💙💙💙

[@LylaMev]

I didn't want to spend a bunch of money on a toy I was so going to rip apart 😅

[@stacychapman2884]

👍👍👏👏

[@Ardite140]

Tons of cool little problem solving moments in this video. Love the project and the perspectives! And I would DEFINITELY be interested to see a more detailed video on your approach to painting faces.

[@MinisMyWay]

Wonderful! What a great use of materials!

[@grahamstrong995]

Thanks very much for this - I have orks so it's always an education to see kitbashing by someone who really knows what they are doing.

[@jonnz64]

UV Resin looks so useful. : o

[@LylaMev]

I use it far more than I originally expected!

[@ConjuredCraft]

Such a cool concept! I wanna play this character in DnD so badly now!!

[@SnoddiesHobbies]

This came out great! Loved watching the process 😁

[@LONO47]

I love the style on this. You went well above and beyond.

[@YalelingOz]

I love so much about this monster bash Lyla. The previous moster bash was how I found your channel in the first place, and I'm already nostalgic for that. The colours are great, just great. The way you painted her face is perfect (as well as teaching me a thing or two.) All the different materials you used (and would never have occurred to me to use) were really clever choices, and that armour, the tentacles, the thorns, and the torn off suit helmet all came out spectacularly. Everything is just so well done.

[@toddguenther1568]

First time catching your channel, thanks to the link from @BillMakingStuff. What a cool episode, I'll subscribe to catch more. Very detailed, I like your design process, and wow, your paint work is outstanding! Excellent narration, editing, and pace. You have a new fan. Keep up the good work.

[@minimishapsgames894]

Always amazing work. Your monster bashes are always super incredible. I drew the same armor! I love the warlock premiss. Your ability to combine materials and mediums is super art-goals. Thanks for sharing such a sweet piece and video!

[@LylaMev]

Thanks a ton!

[@Menhtrol]

She looks like a Slaanesh Daemoness 😆

[@GreyHouseGames]

You make any DIY projects look better than my best; it's awesome to see your work!

[@sillymonger]

Fucking awesome character idea, loved the colors and the final reveal!!

[@SthMejin]

Yes! Face tutorial! 32mm or 75mm scale? 28 most available, but probably too small to apply all of your lessons

[@kingyames]

This is my comment to appease the great algorithm

[@LylaMev]

🙌🙌🙌🙌

[@garfusa2]

I think foam usually means sealing before painting. Usually cosplayers use plastidip I think it's called? Great ending though!

[@LylaMev]

Thanks for the info! I will admit that I use foam very rarely!

[@YanniCooper]

First off, making the armor out of craft foam was great. Looks like the WWE figure is getting a cosplay costume built. Did you know you can mix milliput and greenstuff? It gives some of the working properties of both. I like to do about 50:50 for the base shape, and then about 75% GS: 25%milliput for detailed work. If you do try this out, mix each epoxy separately then mix the two mixes together. For very fine details going 100% GS is probably the way to go.

[@Dmitriy_8791]

Сон разума рождает чудовищ.

[@RichieSpears]

I definitely could used a face painting tutorial.

[@ValiantPioneer]

Woah, that intro was so good! The transitions in this video are very nice and the monster turned out wicked!

[@LylaMev]

Thanks a ton! I had a lot of fun.

[@ValiantPioneer]

@@LylaMev Awesome! That is really the most important part. I ended up doing the Monster Bash as well and had a ton of fun sculpting mine.

[@krzysztofmathews738]

Great process! A quick question for you.. You talked about how one option to help with the foam might have been sealing it, so that it would not have been as absorbent when painting it. What would be a good medium to use for that?

[@LylaMev]

I would start with Modge podge!

[@krzysztofmathews738]

@@LylaMev Thank you!

[@lyndahartup7918]

A face tutorial would be great!

[@manuelgonzalezperdomo2811]

Wow thats was a amaising job im intersted in face paint maybe you can do a tutorial about that

[@SuperVoodude]

7:42 So for the first time in history, someone made an Among Us reference that was actually useful lol I was surprised that craft foam that thin still absorbed a lot of paint. Sounds like it still needed to be heat treated with a heat gun to seal up the pores.

[@hypo7351]

She looks like she would be a good Slaanesh daemonette

[@johnroberts5285]

In Latin, Lyla Mev means funny and smart.

[@vanacid2]

I seriously want a face tutorial. eyes, cheeks, jaw, shadows and highlights, blending... You asked if we'd be interested. I am. Thank you in advance. You are doing wonderful work.

[@vanacid2]

BTW, I am going through my old broken children toys to try bashing them together. This series gave me inspiration

[@pajunk1651]

Is this slaanesh or tzeenzech??

[@danielbont2331]

Who’s video is the relief at 0:55?

[@FallenSailor]

Is the framed sigil from the “Lesser Key of Solomon” or Odin’s Ansuz rune? It looks familiar! 🙂

[@LylaMev]

It's the vegvisir! Symbol of guidance for and protection.

[@jackruby6696]

Slannesh

[@Walkyrjenny]

Not directly related to this video: How does one go about creating soft, pastel-like colors with acrylic paints?

[@LylaMev]

Add white

[@kirestus]

i wonder if sid from toystory was just really into #monsterbash ?

[@LylaMev]

I think he is the original

[@bournelucid]

Amogos

[@HollowJacket]

So you just made a sister of shaalsh

[@codybuchanan6466]

theres no such thing as too many tentacles

[@michaelhunter81]

anyone ever tell you that you resemble Mayim Bialik?

[@MarvelX42]

She looks alot more like Nancy McKeon.

[@jprp999]

Horror? I still would, i've seen way worse on a Friday night.

[@MarvelX42]

Has anyone told you that you look like Nancy McKeon?

A ridiculous number of ads for this video

Please face tutorial

have you ever considered starting an onlyfans?
