2:46 that mask though!!!!!! I love it!
Man, this has been my fav when I first found you years ago. Still is! You’re a talented artist, Sir! Glad you’re still creating.
Thank you very much! I'm really flattered. Take care
This is one of my favorites. Love the creativity that goes into theses. Can't want to see the next sculpture.
Thank you very much! I remember your message on Facebook too. Take care
Dan
Dear god this is so morbidly awesome!
Thank you so much! Glad you like it!
GourmetPaperMache thank you very much
The world needs more people who do art like you. So amazing!
You are very kind. Thank you!
Wow. This video is everything I need in life. I absolutely LOVE dragons, zombies, and speed-process videos. Excuse me while I watch this video an absurd amount of times.
Thank you Lovewish. That's what I was hoping for!
Dan
I'm doing my best to let everyone know how fantastic your works are.
Wow, that is very much appreciated! Thank you!
Dan
I love your dragons! They inspire me a ton~
Hello! I've been reading through the comments section and it looks like you read and respond to what most people have to say. Plenty have said the same below me, but you're work is absolutely beautiful as well as inspiring. It's wonderful to see people like you with such passion in what you do when most give up their dreams and hobbies for "realistic" jobs that consume most free time.
You are very kind Sarah. Thank you for taking the time to write. It always easy to follow your dreams particularly in the art world. I taught school for many years to pay the bills. Well, I do love teaching too. But I did art throughout my time. It "feeds" me the right way. Take care
Dan
All of your pieces are incredible. I love watching these progress videos, they're so fascinating and it's so cool to see it come to life. Keep up the great work!
Nicole DelGiudice
Thank you for your nice comments Nicole! I'm very happy that you like them.
Dan
Just a few days ago, I started on my first papier mache dragon, thanks to you :) I love your videos and your work! I've already started painting my dragon (which I have lovingly named Steve). I'll be sure to share photos with you once it's finished. Thanks for the inspiration!
Another amazing creation! This is definitely my favorite of all the dragons you've done; I absolutely love it. You're very talented!! I can't wait to see more!
I'm really happy about this response. I really didn't know how this trophy would be received. Thank you!
Dan
2 years and no new comments on such an amazing dragon? Awsome work!
Your comment is good enough for me! Thank you so much!
Hi GourmetPaperMache! I'm from Argentina, I'm 12 years old and I'm going to use the words that I know. Your work or hobby it's amazing, when I saw your dragons y got surprised! I like very much the things that you do! All I want to say is, CONGRATULATIONS!!! Well... The best for you!
Fran.
Thank you very much Fran! I really appreciate your kind words. Thank you for taking the time to write. Your English is very good.
Take care
Dan
Crazy one Dan, definitely unusual, whole lotta work there! I can't believe you did the wig and makeup for just that short, cute little cameo, loved that!
What cameo? ha ha. This way I know who watched the entire video. It got to be a bit long. I try to keep them at 3 minutes. Yes, it was a lot of work. For much of it I didn't know if it would be worth it. But I like it now. It's not perfect. But I'm okay with it. Comments like yours helps. Thank you as always.
Dan
Wow! This dragon is all kinds of awesome! I love how you've done the muscle fibers in the neck.
Hey Stella. I'm sure you see any flaws in anatomy. But no one can match the anatomy of your projects. But this was fun and I'm pretty happy with how it turned out. Thanks as always for your support.
Dan
Dan, I have ran out of brilliant things to say about your work and creativity. You just continue to blow all your viewer's minds with your breath taking work. Who would have ever thought I would be on a site making scary dragons? You have me hooked,but only on your site. So excited to see you posted another video. Can't wait until the next one! It is not nice to keep a lady waiting soooooo long. lol Renae
Thank you Renae (I'm glad told me your name)! You are always really supportive. I appreciate it very much. This project took a long time. Hopefully the next won't take quite this long. Thanks for your patience.
Dan
For every video you make, your paper mache gets even better! Keep up the good work!
sapphire step
Thank you Sapphire! That's nice of you to say.
Dan
Wow this was amazing! I am totally going to be using your cloth mache technique, that is brilliant , thank you for sharing your knowledge and artistic abilities with us! Btw, what did you teach when you were a teacher? Just curious! Channon xoxo
Hello Channon. Thank you very much for your kind words. I'm happy that you like my videos. Yes, the cloth mache works really well. Good luck to you.
Dan
PS. Oh, and I was a math teacher. I know, it sounds odd. But math and art are more closely related than people realize.
Take care
Holy cow!!! These look absolutely amazing! I am stunned by your sheer talent, as well as the amount of hours you must put into your projects. If there is such a thing as talent by osmosis, I would never stop hugging you... oh... maybe I'M a bit creepy...
Thank you so much for your note Eleanor! You are not creepy. Just very sweet. Take care
Dan
Thank you! :-) I love your paper mache videos, even though they are WAY out of my league... I'm glad I'm not as creepy as I thought! I love that you're one of the few TH-camrs to respond to their fans. Please make more videos! :-)
Eleanor Phillips
I'm always working on videos. But it takes a lot of time to make the art and the videos. Thank you for your kind words and your patience!
GourmetPaperMache actually, thank YOU for giving me something to be patient about.
Eleanor Phillips
You are too funny! Take care
This has got to be your best piece ever!!! Absolutely love it!!! I just bought 2 of your books today! You are an awesome artist!!!
You must be Douglas! Thank you very much! I am very happy you like the work. I think you will enjoy this medium. I will ship the books first thing tomorrow. Have fun!
@@Gourmetpapermache Really looking forward to giving this a try, but I have 1 question.. What is the most popular size for the eyes you use? Thanks.
@@scratchbuilder101 Usually between 25 - 30mm. Good luck!
@@Gourmetpapermache This is definitely different from 3rd grade paper mache!! I have another question if you would be so kind.. When you're dipping your clothe in glue, do you water the glue down like I've seen with other people? I've managed to get get my teeth glued and wrapped today, and the clothe lining inside inside thejaws, just seemed a little thick and was hard to manipulate. But for a first try, I think it come out pretty good! Thanks again for your help!!! Doug.
@@scratchbuilder101 I don't add any water to the white glue. The thicker the better for me. It holds the cloth down better if it is thick. But it's just a matter of preference. Experiment until you get the consistency you like. Good luck Doug!
I'm blown away!! I am floored by how you use paper mache! I'm very inspired*
Thank you Ami! Very nice of you to say.
Dan
Awesome dragon great detail on everything, looks like it's actually trying to come out and get you!
Glad you like this dragon! Thank you for the comment.
Dan
OMG!!!!! this has got to be by far your BEST master piece yet!!!!!
its some thing out of dark souls or something
truly AMAZING!!!!
I REALLY REALLY LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you shocktrooper! Glad you like it! It took longer than usual and more work. But I like the result. Happy you do too.
Dan
always mate (Y)
at the end of any kind of work i do myself
i always ask myself : "was it worth it? "
and the answer always depends on what,that work brings forth
so truly you can say it was DEFIANTLY worth it
subbed and liked
this trooper is here for the stay =)
***** I really appreciate your comments! They are very flattering. Thank you again! Have a nice holiday season!
Dan
Gaaaah! AMAZING! This is by far my most favorite dragon you've done so far! You are really talented XD
Thank you! I'm glad you like this guy. I appreciate your support.
Take care
Dan
LOVE THIS!!! I love the concept and you nailed it! The colors are great too!
Hi again Rachel. I am happy that you like this one too. If I had to do it again I would make it even more rotten. I wanted to have enough to show the original dragon (before death on one side, after on the other), but it would have looked better being more of the latter. Thanks for taking the time to write.
Dan
I just recently found your channel by searching through many other blogs on how to do paper mache. One of the artists mentioned using your ideas to help them, so here I am. Your stuff is really great! I've considered using paper mache on some art projects for halloween this year for the fist time. I just want do do a small dragon skull and a staff. Your videos have been very helpful. I've had many ideas on what I want to do this year but I wasn't sure where to start. So thanks for your inspirations.
You are very welcome Mary! Thank you. Make sure you check out www.stolloween.com/. My friend Scott is the master of Halloween art!
Dan
Taking the making of paper mache creatures to an entire new level x3
If you plan on doing it, just see this and marvel at the horror that is Zombie Dragon! ;)
Thank you! I'm glad you like this!
Dan
Extraordinario todo, tu trabajo, el vídeo, la edición, la música, felicidades y gracias.
Es usted muy amable Gerardo. Gracias por sus comentarios. Realmente les agradezco.
Dan
Must say a little disappointed there wasn't a zombie cat at the end. :) Seriously just incredible once again!
You are too funny John! You know, I actually thought a bit about how I could dress Eddie up for the part. But I realized that he would have no part of it. Glad you like this dragon.
Dan
My god this work amaze me every time. Please don't stop keep the dragons coming🐲👍🏼
Mindblowing as always. Holy crap that zombie cameo scared me. Your work is so good Dan, it is seriously intimidating (& inspirational). I'm having a go anyway thanx to you. Keep em coming. Hugs to Max & Eddie. MCC;)
Thank you Chris! I really appreciate this comment. I'll say hi to the cats. Actually, I'm editing a little video about them. No paper mache. Just cats. Will be done in a couple of days.
Dan
Incredible job, although it is kind of sad to see how badly beaten the poor dragon is. Btw, nice to finally see you (at 2.45)
Hey again. Thank you for this comment. Yes, even dragons get old, like their makers.
Take care
Dan
Your dragons are really awesome!! This is one's probably my favourite :D
So glad you like this one! Thank you for the nice comment.
Take care
Dan
I just watched it again and i just noticed that you were wearing some costume hahahahda guess i was focused on the dragon when i watched it earlier :D
MrOtakuAdrian
What costume? ha ha
Dan
Please... make a Cerberus 3 headed Dog!
+Cristian Nunes
That would be a fun project. I'll think about it. Thanks for the suggestion!
Is for my band use on stage... something like that. s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/35/66/52/356652cdabf60768af69b3c32182573e.jpg
Yea those are cool
Good idea
As always Dan an awesome creation! ! Oh and live the mask shot lol!! U are soooooo talented!! Good job!!
Thank you Pearl! You are very kind. I'm glad you like that shot. I wondered if it would just be too corny. I guess it turned out okay.
Take care
Dan
Maestro Dan su evolución en el arte no tiene limite cada obra que usted hace me impresiona mas, su talento es unico ,su técnica formidable lo felicito maestro dan por sus lindas obras de arte
Hola Carlos! Siempre es bueno saber de usted. Gracias como siempre por sus amables palabras. Agradezco su apoyo. Espero que usted está haciendo un montón de arte.
Dan
Wonderful build. amazing detail, truly love it. Dragons are my fave. tfs, Katie
Glad you like it Kathleen! thank you!
I hope he feels better soon. Get well Dragon!
funny!
this is by far my favorite dragon, i love your work!!
Thank you Eduardo! You are very kind.
Dan
why havent i discover this earlier?!!! your work is so amazing!!! im actually trying to make some cosplay props from paper mache and pepakura and bump on your amazing video!!
This it the best one you have made! I watched this so many times
Thank you for the nice comment Lauren! I'm very flattered. I like this dragon also.
Dan
I think I can't sleep now. Because this is INCREDIBLY AWSOME!!!! All your work is just ... I don't have words. Incredible, awsome, amazing. These words can't describe how amazed I am.
I would love to make something like this by myself as well, but I am not so sure if I'm good at this. It doesn't seem so easy. But I MUST TRY, because I like all kinds of arts. I draw, I like sculping, handcraft, painting and all like this. And it's my talent. Do you think 12 years old girl could handle paper mache like this?
Hello Lona. I am happy that you like my work. I think this might be hard for a first-timer. I would do something a little less involved for the first project to learn the techniques. Then the sky is the limit. But you should definitely add paper mache to your art repertoire.
Dan
GourmetPaperMache
Thank you for tip! I am sure going to try something, but yes little less involved. I did paper mache about hmm...four years ago? We did something with balloon...it was pig. I think, but I really can't remember what it was like.
Lona LittleArt
Well, we don't need any more paper mache pigs in the world. So try something a little more fun. Good luck!
Wow great work! The frontal facial bone that is exposed looks so cool.
So glad you noticed that! I wasn't sure it would stick out enough. Thank you for taking the time to write.
Dan
I absolutely love your work. It's amazing!
Thank you Ann! You are very kind.
Dan
Beautifully gruesome, Dan! Amazing as always!
Thank you Teresa! I'm glad you like this. It's in time for Halloween at least.
Dan
your dragons are the best!!
This is amazing im making masks in class im also thinking about learning on how to do what you do I love things that take up time and end up looking amazing
Glad you like the work Layton. It's a great art form. Give it a try!
Dan
I am working on a horse head and your video is great help, thanks Dan.
If I ran into this dragon stumbling to the bathroom in the middle of the night, I would pee in the floor. LOL
Horses... damn hard to make. Good luck! I'm old. I'm likely to pee on the floor on the way to the bathroom under normal circumstances!
Dan
awesome...you do some amazing things with paper mache...very cool
Thank you Mike! You are very nice to say so.
Take care
Dan
can you make a skeleton dragon? (it's a suggestion) i like skeletons dragons...
That'd be awesome!
Yes!
You never know. Thanks for the suggestion.
OMG yesss that would be awesome
You sir, are my paper mache hero
That is just Awesome. Have you done any dinosaurs before , I love the Allosaurus I'd love to see a full body or just the head and neck ☺
Your work is so magnificently beautiful. Thank you for sharing. stunning quality .Mesmerizing art work and sculpting. Bravo good sir. I love it.
Well thank you very much Celestial Qitten! You are very kind. I really appreciate your remarks.
Dan
I would absolutely love to see you do a paper sculptor of Deathwing from World of Warcraft, mainly just how badass and exaggerated his design is or maybe even Godzilla. And seeing how amazing your work is, I'm sure you can pull it off.
Deathwing is a cool dragon. Not sure how to make the glowing, lava-like interior and have it hang together. Maybe I'll give it a try sometime. Thanks Scarlett.
Dan
This is soo cool! What are you? Are you some kinda of evolved super species that also happens to be a wizard?! Anyway... You earned a sub ;) i love dragons in general BUT THIS IS PAPER LIKE WOW. just wow.
yea its amazing
This is really amazing. You are so talented.
Thank you very much for the compliment! I'm glad you like this!
Dan
Dan, your work is truly wonderful! I hope you never stop doing what you're doing - you seem so passionate and committed, and the world should have far more respect for the medium of paper mache just by looking at your sculptures. you've totally inspired me; I've ordered one of your books and I highly recommend that anyone else who has been hit by the paper mache bug should too!
Thank you for all your hard work and creativity. You've absolutely made my day with your creations. =)
What a nice note! Thank you Shannen! I really appreciate everything you said. I will keep doing this because I can't not do it. It "feeds me" the right way. Good luck with your art!
Take care
Dan
Stunning. I'm speechless. Hats off!!
Thank you Charles! Much appreciated!
DAn
I think this is my favorite so far, I have a thing for dragons and zombies so what better than a zombie dragon? I have to say, you freakin' made me jump and creeped me out with that creeper stunt. lol Awesome!
That's funny. I forgot I even put that scene in the video! Glad you like this one. I would do it differently now. But I still like it too. Thank you for the nice remarks!
I would love to buy all the dragons you make, they're so Cool! I would love to know some of your paper mache techniques! Greetings from Scotland!:)
Thank you Abi. You can learn all of my techniques by looking at my blog. I show the making of many of my projects with commentary. Check it out. Just follow the links under the video.
Dan
FANTASITIC JOB!!! so fun to watch you
Thank you so much Neil!
Amazing as always! Love the overlays of "slime" on this one too!
I hope this one sold in seconds!
So grotesque and utterly frightening. I LOVE IT.
Very happy you like this one! Thank you, as always. I really appreciate your support.
Dan
It would be amazing if one of these days you can give one of these sick dragons away in one of your videos. I would love to try to win one and put it on my wall. Great video man, Hope to see more vids from you
Hello Andy. Maybe I'll do that sometime. Thank you for the idea. And thank you for the very nice comment. I really appreciate it.
Dan
Wow!! That is freakin awesome! You just keep taking it to the next level.
Thank you! I really appreciate your remarks. And I love the login photo! Great mask (I hope it's a mask).
Dan
I mean i love dragons till the day i die, but um... those eyes give me the creeps.. but it is freaking awesome!
What the heck at 2:45...
+Arikess Drakozsa
Yes, they are zombie eyes, intended to give the creeps. Thank you again.
GourmetPaperMache XD Your so cool. I was freaked out for a minute when i saw those eyes. Your welcome.
Your a true master at doing paper mache. Great job ....

Dan
I just discovered you and I love these creations! I'm amazed at your creativity and I love to see the end piece come together on the video. What fun...looks like it take lots of patience and perseverance to get that final, perfect piece of art. Very cool.
No need for you to reply. :)
Thank you Jessica! You are very sweet. I appreciate your remarks a great deal!
Dan
So freaking Awesome!!! Love it!!!! Too bad you couldn't have him cameo on The Walking Dead!!

Thank you, as always, Daniel. Greetings from Seattle, Washington!
Dan
Ahhhh you're a zombie too!!!!!!😱😂 this one looks so cool!!!!!!!!!😀😀😀😀😀😀
Glad you like this one. Thanks for your nice remarks.
One day I stumbled upon your video and I am utterly blown away by how amazing your work is. I also have one question: how do you create your eyes? Is it some sort of glass dome of some sort? or do you just buy them all?
That is incredible. I'm super inspired now
Excellent. Go for it!
Dan
Love this one! I spent all of my time in the art room in high school working with watercolor paints and clay. Now that I'm a broke college student, do you have a list of some basic supplies that could start me off doing paper mache?
Elissa Skaggs
Just flour, water and newspaper to begin with. Masking tape, clothes hangers, paint. Fimo for teeth and taxidermy eyes. I use bed sheets and white glue for "skin". Have fun!
Amazing bro, the gloss gel is a nice accent, great vid!
Thank you! I appreciate the nice comment!
Dan
WOW!!!! I love this one great work love everything you do keep up the awesome work
Thank you very much Bamm Bamm! Much appreciated.
DAn
Such beautiful creations! I stumbled upon your videos looking for a tutorial on giant skull masks and got so lost watching your artwork happen that I forgot what I was doing. (I even got sucked into the cat enclosure video =^..^=)
Gorgeous, inspiring stuff. Now I wanna make something more interesting than a skull~ Thank you for sharing your talent!
Hello Maya. What a nice comment! Thank you for taking the time to write this note. It makes my night. Good luck on your project!
Dan
simply amazing. I would like to try. you could tell me what the materials that you use? this mainly yellow and inks. your work is wonderful and fantastic.
Hello Nina. Can't list all the materials here. But you can find information on my site and blog.
Dan
you are my lifelong inspiration
Well you are very kind. Thank you for your support!
Thanks for the inspiration! Im making a dragon paper mache in school soon!
super awesome dude you are veeery good at paper mache and talanted.Keep the great work 👍😋
Thank you very much Diana! I appreciate the kind remarks!
Dan
some people are just too good at what they do. And you are one of them. I tried paper mâché a few times, it turned out awful
It's all about practice. Thank you for the comment!
Dan
Awesome. Favorite dragon I've seen you make. Do you think that paper mache such as this could be used to make Halloween decorations (about the same size as this)? Just wondering. Anyways keep up the good work Dan!
