If Crafsman was good at just ONE thing, sculpting, drawing, animation, figure making etc that'd be enough. But the man is FUNNY, makes sweet, thoughtful videos, his music is AMAZING and he's just an all around gem.
Troubleshooting the exact resin for your needs ain't cheap and I hope everyone realizes how golden this information is. Bravo on another banger theCrafsMan!
Dude. just telling us what paint to use that won't easily rub off with your thumb is Info ive been trying to solve for 15 YEARS. ive literally been trying since before i turned 20! im 41 now!!!
i don’t think i’ve ever seen a crafting youtuber provide as much information on the available options for tools/supplies as you have here. i don’t think i’ll ever try this myself, but i adore the dedication and appreciate the knowledge. if i were making anything remotely related, this sort of video would be a godsend!
You have OFFICALLY Won my Undying Love. you finding paint that is THAT STRONG on Casting Urethane, has made me so happy i could literally cry. for *YEARS AND YEARS* i tried and failed to find a paint that would Stick to my Casts. i mean, we're talking 15 YEARS MY MAN! and you upload a video on it like "Here ya go" i feel like this is just a Dream and im gonna wake up soon and sigh and say "Well, it was fun while it lasted, but i guess back to not knowing how to make THAT work" btw the Pocketnaut got to me a few days ago, thank you for signing the inside of the box, it means a lot to me!
This reply was so encouraging to read! It’s a good feeling when the information and experimentation can benefit someone else. ALSO, I was informed by Smooth-On that their Maker Pro paint may work with Smooth-Cast 45d better (and it’s water-based / low VOC). www.smooth-on.com/products/maker-pro-paint/
Oh WOW! Well there ya go that's even more mind blowing. im for sure going to try each one of these out to see which one is perfect for my ideas, but regardless this sort of information is absolutely beyond Golden. @@TheCrafsMan
It’s funny when one of the best makers on TH-cam says “if I can do it, you can do it.” It’s an ernest thing to say but also, I do think I could do it after watching this.
I was already anticipating this video and you can only imagine my delight that there was also a surprise visit from Crafsman's cat!! BEST way to start my day.
I'm primarily a 3D artist who loves to make odd things, I've been a long time fan of this channel and you sir Mr. CrafsMan are a great inspiration to me, you make wanting to just "create" into something we all should feel more comfortable to explore, so thanks you very much and I can't wait for more!
Crafsman’s greatest gift is that he makes you believe you can craft too, unleashing the creativity in all who view his wonderful and entertaining videos. ❤
Man. Its been a long time since i watched one of your videos, and i had forgotten how much i smile watching them. Your videos a great. I'm not sure what it is but by the end my face hurts from how long i have been smiling. THank you for sharing these creations with us.
I did someFauxfubi experiments myself some time ago. I would sculpt in clay, and then scan and bring it into a 3d program to cut it up and add the locking joints. It was a long way to go for something i could have just sculpted and did entirely in clay i guess. I still think 3d printing the joining parts might save you a bit of work rather than physically sculpt them next time.
I'm not tryna be creepy, but I am in LOVE with the Craftsman! I catch myself watching each video with a big ol grin on my face soothed to my soul by that voice. ❤😊
I’m glad your cat friend came back and is indoor only now! I love how simple looking your sculpts are, but in practice they are so well balanced and conceptually sophisticated.
I'm happy your kitty is ok. He's a cute kitty. I love tan tabbies. They look more like their ancestors. It's always scary when they leave for any extended amount of time. I love kitties.
I like your experimentation, for someone new to moulding it is a great help in getting right product to work with. No one likes disappointments that cost a fortune when starting up.
Crafsman, its been a rough year and every video of yours inspires me to go forget it and and try some new creative business. Thank you for sharing that energy with all of us.
Craftsman, I want you to know that you are the Bob Ross of the Internet age. I love your videos so much. I know that you have struggled with mental health. I want you to know that you are loved. Thank you so much for your awesome vibes.
Wow. I actually learned more about toy making in this video than when I previously worked at a certain big headed vinyl toy company. Very informative and inspirational to my own personal artistic pursuits!
2 things you saved me with here.. I actually picked up robert’s rotocaster he gave away (and met him, its like meeting casting god) but genuinely have been too afraid to use it.. So THIS VIDEO is giving me the courage to finally do it.. i got the bungee cords for it but I just.. never got the strength to make the connected 2 part and secure it yet. Even as I picked it up, clearly robert can make these things with his eyes closed but to me the roto is just so sprcial, I dont wanna utterly destroy the mechanism on my first try!!! i have some big boy parts i need to do this week 2nd thing is that that connector design is just so brilliant, thank you for finally “explaining” the classic sofubi “joint cut”!!!! I never understood where you were supposed to be cutting the edge of the lip until now. you might have just saved a master or two that I was struggling with. Plus it wouldnt hurt to just make my 3d print joints consistent like that.. so simple and I love it As per usual, your videos are so well produced and flawless. I seriously went from having nothing to having a fully stocked (hoard) shop and making my own stuff daily... No $ in it right now but I am just SO fufilled doing it. Thank you man. This community is so damn brilliant
These videos are always a highlight and this one was especially inspiring. With the sad loss of T-Nu’s channel these episodes have become just that much more meaningful.
I like that you did not have to do all the tests and could have just made it the easy way but you did so much! My daughter wants a space kitty now haha
I've been waiting on a video like this from the crafsman for years since i first found out about sofubi! Also fauxfubi is the perfect term, I can't wait to try to make my own. Steady Craftin
I never regret clicking off any video I'm watching to see what the crafsman's cookin'!! Even if its been a while I'm instantly sittin here wit a big ol grin n reminded of why I love this man❤.
I really appreciate how thoroughly you explain your process in your sculpting videos. I recently began sculpting with green stuff after seeing your video. ❤
This was great! I would love to see some more videos on the other parts of the process you mentioned at the end. Having a start to finish guide for making at home vinyl figures would be amazing. Thank you for your hard work in making these.
And awesome results as always. What a fun little character. Apoxie sculpt can get hard and unusable, but I have a useful tip. Place a small sheet of plastic into each jar. Lightly moist a piece of sponge, kitchen sponge or such, and place it on top of the plastic. Keep the lids really well closed and check back so the sponges are always moist.
Man I'm absolutely loving this series of videos! Sometimes I think you must be a motivational speaker cause I'm always extra motivated after your videos 😄
I could not have started sculpting at a better time. Just found out about Sofubi and was discouraged that it might be impossible to DIY at home. But here comes this revolutionary alternative. Can’t wait to try it!
Had to pause the video and comment: Please tell Kenji I love him and give him scritches for me 😻 I've wondered about him since seeing a cat way back in one of your early videos. Happy to hear he gets to be safe inside these days
Man your video ographin skills have come a mighty long way! Production quality outstandin, steadycraftin! That a long with the sculptin. nice work and thanks for sharin!
Dear Crafsman! I do love you and your work a lot. Small Patreon supporter since quite a time. Thank you for all the effort and passion you put into your work. I highly appreciate everything about CRAFNATION, your approach, experience and wisdom. Keep it up and feel hugged.
Love it... Go Crafsman! I have used this Sculpey method to make so much of my semi-geometrical stuff-- The tooling, filing and sanding are just a great way to tune and refine these kinds of things. It's as satisfying as it looks! One trick I'd like to pass along... when I'm adding new Sculpey to baked Sculpey, I like to slick the dry area first with a little Sculpey Clay Softener (that comes in a dropper bottle). That always seems to make new clay grab a little better, especially if the contact area is delicate. It's especially useful if you're using clay that's firmer, or on the drier side.
I might have a cool idea there with the transparent cast. Pool in and cast a really thin layer of clear resin, and once its set do a 2nd inner cast with colored resin to make a ghost-like space kitty.
Crafubi? Lol. Great job, man! I get new ideas every time I see one of your videos. Thanks for sharing your good nature, time and talents with the world.
You are by far in the top ten of my favorite YT creators. I may not always be able to watch every video the day it drops but rest assured your videos are ALWAYS viewed with happy anticipation. Also will this be a possible shop offering? I love this lil' guy and would adore one 🩷... maybe even a lil' glow in the dark kitty boy 😍
Oh man, every single video you share is a fairy tail and a little masterpiece. Thank you for sharing your magical world, please never stop dreaming ❤
This man steady makin my day.
bang on - please keep creating - magic beans forever.
What he said
Mr Craftsman, you are the Bob Ross of sculpting. Keep On Keepin On.
The Bob Ross of crafting
He needs to craft an afro for his avatar. 😂
Such an original statement! I've never seen that before. /s
@@piperalphaNo idea is original
Excellently said !
If Crafsman was good at just ONE thing, sculpting, drawing, animation, figure making etc that'd be enough. But the man is FUNNY, makes sweet, thoughtful videos, his music is AMAZING and he's just an all around gem.

You absolutely got that right..!
Expensive material…
Invaluable guidance….
And yes…. Bravo, CraftsMan….!

Love you. Thanks for being one of the best parts of my day. Your videos make me feel a sense of joy that is hard to explain. You’re a true legend.
Love it when Crafsman goes down the 🐰 🕳️!
Faux-Fubi is in full swing now! Cant wait to dive into this one, Crafsman!
I'm primarily a 3D artist who loves to make odd things, I've been a long time fan of this channel and you sir Mr. CrafsMan are a great inspiration to me, you make wanting to just "create" into something we all should feel more comfortable to explore, so thanks you very much and I can't wait for more!

The crafsman's videos always dropped at the most useful time in my crafing hobby life.
Happy days really been looking forward to this one. 😁
Andy! Always a treat to see you, my friend!

CrafsMan makes me happy, always. I learn things, and that calm and cool voice you hear while doing it.

Your method is faster in the long run for sure
I love everything about crafsman's vibe and style. This is some of the best content available on Yt.
"You can only eat an elephant one bite at a time"
Magnificent. I had not heard that one.
I am very fond of “ might not shoulda done that”❤
This looks like a lot of fun. I love the simple joint on that lil cat
I'm not tryna be creepy, but I am in LOVE with the Craftsman! I catch myself watching each video with a big ol grin on my face soothed to my soul by that voice. ❤😊
Whenever i have a bad day i can watch one of your videos and remember the beauty and joy to be found in life ❤️
You are my favourite sculptor characters. Love your work. Never stop to making your videos. Thanks😊
I’m glad your cat friend came back and is indoor only now! I love how simple looking your sculpts are, but in practice they are so well balanced and conceptually sophisticated.
You are Robert inspire me so much! Amazing to see Robert mentioned here!
I'm happy your kitty is ok. He's a cute kitty. I love tan tabbies. They look more like their ancestors. It's always scary when they leave for any extended amount of time. I love kitties.
I cannot say it enough. TheCrafsMan is a goshdarn national treasure. I love watching your videos.
I like your experimentation, for someone new to moulding it is a great help in getting right product to work with. No one likes disappointments that cost a fortune when starting up.
Haven't even watched this video yet but I'll give it the thumbs up because it's crafsman and thats all the reason I need
Crafsman, its been a rough year and every video of yours inspires me to go forget it and and try some new creative business. Thank you for sharing that energy with all of us.
The amount of useful informations in this video is incredible!
I'm so glad Kenji came home!! Hopefully he's no worse for wear from his adventures.
You and Rob are my fave Craffs folks. Relaxing and informative videos.
Craftsman, I want you to know that you are the Bob Ross of the Internet age. I love your videos so much. I know that you have struggled with mental health. I want you to know that you are loved. Thank you so much for your awesome vibes.
I aint even finished this video and im already hyped for the next. Love the stuff, crafsman
So interesting! And I'll never, never get tired of the way you present your topic and information.
Wow. I actually learned more about toy making in this video than when I previously worked at a certain big headed vinyl toy company. Very informative and inspirational to my own personal artistic pursuits!
You manage to fit a lot of handy tips for any modelling and toy making in this video
Crafsman you make my heart happy, your voice, humor, mannerisms, background music. Fantastic job my friend. Much love my brother.
2 things you saved me with here.. I actually picked up robert’s rotocaster he gave away (and met him, its like meeting casting god) but genuinely have been too afraid to use it..

2nd thing is that that connector design is just so brilliant, thank you for finally “explaining” the classic sofubi “joint cut”!!!!

Plus it wouldnt hurt to just make my 3d print joints consistent like that.. so simple and I love it

The crowd gasp is great.
The work light coming down to see what you’re doing has me in stitches
Bro I keep coming back to your videos cause I keep falling asleep. That relaxing voice puts me to sleep like a baby. Great content as always bro!
I like that you did not have to do all the tests and could have just made it the easy way but you did so much! My daughter wants a space kitty now haha
You are one heck of an artist, please keep doing what you do. I learn so much from your videos.

Crafsman this was so thorough! I loved the resin and paint breakdowns
I’ve missed you!! I haven’t been on your channel in a while but I drink out of your coffee mug every morning!!!! ❤

thanks for this - i have watched the last video three times and recommend to many.
I've waited for a video like this for a long long time!
Wow this was genuinely so inspiring, you’re breaking new grounds Crafsman! I’m very excited to try this approach out!
Love this. I used to work with injection moulding machines and they always fascinated me.
After a stressful week this was a welcomed surprise! Thank you Crafsman
I'm glad your kenji is home! Thank you, crafsman.
Been a few years Sir! So glad to see your content again!

in love with the doodles you did before you started ❤❤ such an amazing concept
I appreciate all the work you put into your vidos. I can't express how useful all your information and tutorials are. Thank you ❤
Your work light appreciates your detail as much as we do!
I might have a cool idea there with the transparent cast. Pool in and cast a really thin layer of clear resin, and once its set do a 2nd inner cast with colored resin to make a ghost-like space kitty.
Me encantan tus videos ,no entiendo nada porque no hablo inglés pero los disfruto mucho jajaja
Every time I watch a video I have to just make something, thanks again!
I'm so pleased you made this, I can finally try sofubi without paying a high amount and ordering lots from China
Consistently one of the most informative and entertaining channel on the internet.
Crafubi? Lol. Great job, man! I get new ideas every time I see one of your videos. Thanks for sharing your good nature, time and talents with the world.
Just made my night to see this posted!
I always mash the 👍 then watch it. I enjoy hanging out with you.
This is the first Crafsman video YT has shown me in a year.
I'm really happy TH-cam decided fixed itself and started putting you back in my main page! I hadn't realized how much I had missed from you!
love the robert shoutout, I've learned a lot from his videos and I think people who are into your sculpting and molding could, as well!
This video changed my life❤
Such a great resource video! Thank you! Getting strong "How it's Made" vibes!
Free range Tabby!!! Love it!

I really enjoyed this episode! Lovely sculpt and wonderful music. Your videos are always so inspiring to me.
Thank you for using our paint and thinner Crafsman! I'm so happy to see it works well for this fauxfubi DIY process. So cool!
Great video, love how you talk through the whole process and your thoughts behind it.
Your videos have such a lovely energy and your experiments are so fun! Can't wait for more ❤
The Craftsman strikes again, with another superb video.
I love these videos, thanks for the Sunday evening entertainment CrafsMan!!!
I love character crafting episodes!! So happy to see another upload
Its like an art channel mixed with asmr. Very cool stuff indeed!
first. Love you Crafsman!!!
there is unintentional asmr videos and there is crafsman !
