Honestly, for which guide you should turn into a plushie next is the one that got the least appreciated video. It's a good way to shine light on one that didn't get as much as it deserved. Also the more out of the box ideas is my vote for future mutant sculptures!
I definitely like when the characters have a base and "environment". I would love to see you interpret the characters from Wizard of Oz. The usual gang or... the characters in the other books, like "Return to Oz" TikTok would be cool in your style.
YES I WOULD ABSOLUTELY LOVE MORE MUTANT UNIVERSE VIDEOS!!! I missed it so much this year and use them as inspiration for my art projects all the time. I've been drawing so much more because of them. I would love to see some more characters!
YES YES YES YES YES PLEASE MAKE MORE LABYRINTH CHARACTERS!!! Ludo, Hoggle Trash lady, Sir Didymus, fire goblins, The worm….. ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING!!!
Hey! For what it's worth, I am a subscriber and I have my notifications on, and Krampus never showed up on my notifications. This is my first time seeing him! I will watch it when this video finishes!
As a writer myself, I think you should continue with the mutant universe. It’s just something about original character creations with backstories. I think adapting it into a graphic novel/comic series is another option.
Just gotta say Snow White’s legs in that dress are BOSS. You have such talent with fabric that it’s so nice to see you stretch and create something more dynamic. I honestly think that’s really a big key for me - a dynamic pose, whether standing (or sitting, pumpkin guy) is different and I like it ever so much more than just standing.
Sculpts I would love to see 2024 Violet all swollen from Wonka! I can only imagine how amazingly cool you can transform her with your imagination. More from labyrinth of course! And I would love you to continue the Disney characters Jasmin, Elsa, Merida, Mulan and some of the villains. They come out so well I wish there was a collection of these in the real world we could buy and display. As far and characters from the mutant universe i myself really enjoy the mix that you provide us with of monster and humanoid with a bit of animalistic qualities. Speaking of which I love the bellhop I know you said you could have put more detail but the simplicity of it and how smooth the uniform looks compared to the chaos of the world around him is a great juxtaposition in my view. I also like that unintentional crack on wonka idk if it compromises the sculpt in any way but if not I would leave it because we all know by the end of the movie/book the mans mind was really cracking and its a nice little representation of that. And as far as the AI situation honestly I think it's an amazing sculpt and would enjoy seeing you do more from description only prompts AI or viewer made. All in all, I've been watching you for years and you can be a little critical of yourself so im happy to see you toot your own horn every once in a while! I will definitely go back and see some of the sculpts I missed. I really enjoy your contact please keep being you and doing what makes you happy regardless of view count and criticism youre amazingly talented and I love your content! Will be seeing more of your content 2024!
I really like the look of the Scarecrow sculpt/diorama. Very illustrative looking and it feels like its own little mini world. Also a little bit of a NBC vibe but less Goth, more old school Disney animation design influence. I dig it!
We like a sympathetic characters. lol The sad scarecrow. The sad pumpkin man. These trigger the "must fix" in a lot of people and we want to love these lost and sad creations.
I love all of your work, I love your vision and sense of style. But your Mutants World characters are my favorites. I love that you have both the out there ones AND the human looking ones, the variety is what makes them work so well as a universe to me.
Also, I did not receive any notifications for the altered animatronic style creations. I didn't even know they existed until today. I don't know if that's why they didn't do as good as you thought they should maybe others didn't get the notifications for them either
I think turning the mutant/hidden world universe into a connected anthology of short stories would be a great idea. Each story can be about a specific character or two, and the overall collection would be able to tell a larger story going on. It would really allow you to focus in on each character and give them their own spotlight within the world.
Hey that Gizmo piece is my husband's and mine! We commissioned it off our amazing friend Lizzy! She's done a fantastic job haha have a nice new year everyone xxx
I would loooove to see you start getting into dioramas and bigger projects (but with your signature characters, too!). I wonder if it would feel more attainable to try new things or do big/more detailed projects if you uploaded longer videos less often? As much as I would miss the weekly upload, I know there are a lot of artists who only upload once every two weeks or even once a month so they can do bigger projects. Might be fun to try. I can imagine uploading sculptures every week could turn into a grind. And YES to more hidden world characters! Those are my favourite :)
Happy New Years Ace! 😊 What an awesome year of sculptures. Pleaae go more into your Hidden World. Its my absolute favorite part of your channel. The cat scarecrow was one of my absolute faves because of the entire theme. I also love the vampire and bat hes just amazing and I love the pumpkin on the bench bc hes just a part of all of us totally misunderstood.
I'd love to see more Mutant Universe sculptures! They're so cool and I love hearing you talk about the lore of the characters and their world. Happy New Year, Ace and everyone! ❤️
My favourites of your designs are the victorian style gentlemen like Times New Roman guy and the ghost and I also liked the creepy graveyard groundskeeper guy. Would love to see you create a new font inspired sculpture if you aren't sick of exploring that idea.
I honestly wanna see you move into stop motion figures. Your characters are so amazing and the world you are building has great story’s to tell - it’s something that fit into your desire for dioramas! Idk you rock! You can do anything. ❤
Love all your sculpts . So hard to choose a favorite. You’re so talented I can’t imagine thinking of something to sculpt each week, making it look so easy and always a beautiful result. Bravo , you’re an awesome artist. All the best in the New Year! ❤️
love your sculptures!! omg i would Love to see more labyrinth characters. ludo and sir didymus would probably be a challenge but also a lot of fun!!! and i think hoggle would look GREAT in your style.
Ace, you continue to inspire me! My son bought me the sculpting accessories I hoped for at Christmas and I just ordered one of your sculpting mats! Can't wait to get started on my projects, hope to have at least 2 done by the time of my local exhibit in June! My favorites here are , Wednesday, Cinderhella, Rameses, The Bellboy, Greylock, The Inkeeper, Teh Umpa-Loompa, Jareth, Boogeyman, Pumpkin Creeper, Scarecrow, Vampire, the Pumpkin on the bench, SNow Meister, Heat Meister. I love the detailing on WIlly Wonka, and I'd love to see a sweeter version of him! Congratulations to you, and congrats to all the sculptors who sent in their pictures! Fantastic!
I really like when use the more realistic fiber hair as it adds a lot to the overall look. I would love to see more dioramas and multiple character builds. It would be cool to see a subterranean build or haunted mansion build or evil gingerbread house. Also different takes on classic movies like The Wizard of Oz, etc.
Awesome makes this year! I think adding props to the characters really adds to the story. I liked the simplicity of the bench because it added to the character and didn't distract by being overly detailed. Your viewers are super talented, I enjoyed their makes very much. Happy 2024 everyone!
Both quantity and quality of all these pieces are equally impressive and inspirational! I do have a sweet spot for monsterized 2D characters like your Disney princesses, and they were all fantastic, but I think my 2023 favorite has to be the Bellhop 🙂 Belated happy new year, excited to see what you come up with in '24!
I love all your sculptures but my favourite has to be jareth from labyrinth, would love to see more from that film as there are so many cool characters and obviously the hidden world, mutant universe both mutants in any form and guides! Just love their background stories you put together. I also really liked the soul eater, was hoping you would do that concept again. Can’t wait to see what you create in 2024!! Happy new year 🎉
Super late to comment, but I’m a new watcher just catching up. The ones you said were popular like the pumpkin head and the scarecrow with kitty ears, I really liked those sculpts because they had personality shining through in their poses and expressions. Like I could picture them coming to life in stop motion and imagine their personalities just based on the sculpt.
Anthony... I love all of your sculpts. However, in my opinion your Mutant Universe or Hidden World sculptures are the best! I would love to see more of them in 2024!
What a joy to be in your video, I have been following and admiring your work for a long time, I never thought I would see myself there today, thank you very much for sharing a small space for us. Happy new year Ace 🎉😊!!
Amazing work all over the past year. To answer one of your questions: yay for more labyrint characters. And would love to see / hear more regarding the hidden universe. 🎉 happy 2024 to you with lots of new creative inspiration!
Another amazing year of sculptures! I’ve loved them all, and I’d love to see a video detailing the mutant universe so far with the sculptures as you tell the story. I’d also love to see more diorama sculptures, and I wouldn’t mind waiting an extra week or so for them.
Your Hidden World is gold. Keep developing these characters. I admit i wasn't enthusiastic abou the princess monters. There are other creators who specialize in that type creepy counterpoint, but you never seemed particularly comfortable with it. You do you, bc you are extremely creative and i feel the passion when you talk about your characters. I understand the adhd thing, though. I've had a few different ideas for charater universes, but they often peter out when i can no longer maintain enough interest to keep going. The struggle is real, but your doing it! Happy New Year!
I love the spooky scary stuff, but I think I love your work the best when it has the scary spooky but a little bit of cute as well 😊 I’d LOVE to see more Labyrinth characters next year, but also more of your own creations as well. Anyway, hope you have a wonderful and joyful 2024!
I'm not a big fan of the Mutant Universe but I can see why other people love them. I really liked your Disney Princess monsters. I love the suggestion of doing the Wizard of Oz characters in your creepy style. Looking forward to seeing what you create in 2024.
Maybe I am just not your normal demographic, but I did love the Disney Princesses with the exception of Ariel. I didn't like Ariel mainly because you made it as a challenge. I think if it hadn't been a challenge, she would have been better. I also loved your animatronic plushes! I think I just like watching people take something that moves and sculpt over it. Regardless, I think you are doing some amazing work and I can't wait to see what 2024 has in store for you!
I need more Mutants Universe!! It’s what got me so into your videos. You are an amazing storyteller and the lore you’ve created is amazing. Keep doing what you love and we’ll be here supporting you along the way. Happy New Year Ace!!
I love the two end of year sculptures. I just found your channel a little while ago and have been binging on your adoption videos along with Nerdecrafter. Thank you for the wonderful videos.
What a great collection & awesome accomplishment! I have enjoyed watching you grow over the last few years. Your painting has really improved & I love the addition of glossy accents in the mouths, drool, etc. I personally do like to add accessories to my "doll" creations. I think customers like when they can actually do things with them (play? lol) like poses... mine have things like capes, or fur coats, crazy hats or helmets, staffs, etc, that they can remove, change, whatever.... but one thing I do that I think they like also, is that I try to make a component that can be worn on a necklace too... a lil bonus, lol... mine are often done with crystals cuz they're not really monster-ish, but like that lil hanging bat would be cool... make good conversation pieces!😁 Just sharing one of my secrets, shhhh!🥰❤❤❤
I love all of your sculptures and next year in 2024 I really want to see more videos of the guides and I want to see a whole video of the guides together and you are my favorite sculptor and I'm also a huge fan
YES! More Mutant characters. I could give you so many ideas. If you run out of ideas for the Mutant Universe, just ask. And Otto should be the next Guide plush. I don’t really have a preference for the humanoid Mutants or the monstrous ones.
More Universe!!!! Ur characters work so well! Each one fleshes out the over all idea (as I understand it 😅) so well. And my 2 kids are screaming for a Greylock plushie as I type soooo........❤
👋🏻HI! May 2024 bring you all the creative messy success! I recently found your Channel after wanting to delve back into the sculpture world. WOW the hope you've given me! I gave up after suffering a super toxic relationships, It's so easy to listen and believe the nasty things huh. Unfortunately I left in a rush and yep, I left all my materials and gear there. SO many years have passed and it's coming up to my birthday, I have been brave and asked for some my clay dream to be fulfilled! (Gotta love amazon gift lists) EEK! so fingers crossed. I was so lucky to have a great sculpture studio where I studied fine art in London, I passed with a Merit in sculpture so I'm hoping I can bring back the skills I learnt there and passion, I loved it so much! You've helped with your passion!!! As it's shown here and in all your video's and it's also lovely that you list all your tools! Thank you!!!!! I see people shout ideas for your next creations and I would personally love any creature (costume once transformed) from the Halloween game, Costume Quest. The evil French fries crab is my favourite, but I also second the return to OZ TikTok 💚 You asked if we like the humanoid or more out there monsters, for me it has to be the out there crazy ones!! Keep kicking butt while enjoying what you do, such an inspiration!!!! THANK YOOOOU!!!!
Anthony, thank you so much for another year of your delightful sculptures and for this review video. It is so interesting to me to listen to your opinions after the fact about the wonderful sculptures you created throughout the year. Please continue to be constructively critical about your work, but not quite so hard on your choices, talents and what you think viewers feel about any particular sculpture. I love how you experiemented with different mediums and ventured into new waters with the creepification of the animatronic figures. I look forward to more Mutant Universe characters especially the Spirit Guides. The background narrative about your characters add so much to the enjoyment of each of your characters and makes us more invested in the appreciation of each piece. I look forward to more merch including other plushies and your signature products. I wish you continued great success in 2024 and beyond.
I LOVED the two figures with the moving and talking parts. But for some reason TH-cam didn’t show them of at all. And I follow you and have you on “all videos” bell. I will look at them now and give my love ❤❤❤
You are so talented, I love everything you have made. I must try to make a scary sculpture to scare my grandkids, lol. It’s not as creepy as it may sound, they get a kick out of their quirky nana. I have a set of twin grandsons who would love to make some polymer clay figurines. They have a portfolio of characters they have drawn on paper and I think next time they visit we are going to try one of your figures. Continued luck with all your endeavors!
Im definetly in favor of more Hidden World stuff, its hands down my favorite series of yours. Although i think it would be cool to focus more on the other characters besides the mutants like mr.smiles
Happy New Year! I would like to see more mutants. I like the nonhuman ones but I think you should do what is in your mind. It seems your mind can tell you what you want to make. The reason I don't watch some of the videos is I don't have the time and go back later to watch them. I look forward to Fridays for your video. I love love, love your animatronics, and your collaboration with Jazz. I liked the singing Krampus. I thought you may go that route once you redid the Elf on a shelf.
Happy New Year, Anthony! I love these year end retrospectives. I realized as I watched that I am drawn to your sculpts that include some context, if that’s the right word. The scarecrow and the pumpkin guy on the bench, for example. You gave little slices of their world to contextualize them a bit more. I feel similarly about the Vampire and Grinch, who are holding things. The Vampire is regarding the little bat. I guess interaction with their environment may be another way to regard them. Some sculptures shine, regardless, like the Goblin King and Babadook. I personally didn’t care for the princesses, though your point is taken about drawing eyes 🧐
I've been stalking your videos for years and not sure if I've ever left u a comment but because you're such an inspiration and I've learned so much from you, I felt I could at least do that. I truly love your style....especially the figures that have a slightly larger head. The texturing you do often makes them almost look as though they've been carved in wood. They have an antique feel to them even though they may be contemporary subjects. I luv the Halloween that you bring to almost everything. I love your alien guy, WillyWonka, and the OompaLoompa, Jared from Labrynth....and so many others. The likenesses to the characters is instant yet you make it your own. I was delighted to see you doing anamatronic stuff! I loved watching u do Crampus and trying out Apoxie Sculpt...wondering if u ever did the body of the dragon head u made...? The way you do eyes by putting a disc in the socket to create the eye and eyelids is brilliant and I've seen other people credit you for that. I'm sure others have must have did eyes that way but it seems that usually they just create the lids. How u do it is so obviously simple and very effective. I luv when u add hair but like on the Snow Mizer guy, not having real hair at that scale especially lends itself to that wood carved look that I luv. I don't know anything about the mutant world u speak of nor keep with any trends but I luv your style, execution and how prolific you are. Can't wait to see what you do this year. Thank you so much for sharing your brilliant art but also your processes and growth. I'm a forever stalker! :)
Yes we need more guide plushies I want the wolf guide but also I really like the cat guide and the owl guide and I thought what if you we’re to bring out a plush bundle of the guides? The guide plush bundle😊
I don't usually comment, but I love your videos and your sculptures. You are so talented. I love your Hidden World characters. Very interesting worldbuilding. Thanks for your content.
what a great year! 🥹🥹❤️ you are so great at textures and fabrics, and your characters are all so expressive. I’ve been watching for a long time & love & appreciate your transparency throughout your sculpting journey. It definitely helps me to stay motivated and excited about my own. I hope 2024 is another incredible year for you & your sculptures!! ❤❤❤
Hullo Anthony, I am a fan of the mutants and your stories about your universe! I like the guides and they are humanoid at the core of them they are your heroes! I hope you do more stop motion style sculpts. I was not a real fan of the princesses. Yet I watched your videos. I would love to see your “take” on established worlds, I saw a reference to the OZ books there are so many creatures and unique characters too! In fact you kinda did the Jack Pumpkinhead! He originated from OZ! I do like your dioramas and know they are always more work but I believe they tell more of a story and you don’t have to demonize them in your sculptures for you to have a successful sculpture! Thank you for sharing your sculpting journey with us!
Happy New Year everyone! Thank you for another year of love and support. I couldn't do it without you! See you in January ♥
See yuhhhhh!!!!
Can you make Death-E
More mutant universe? Heck yeah! Thought you never ask
Happy New Year to my favorite You tuber!
Honestly, for which guide you should turn into a plushie next is the one that got the least appreciated video. It's a good way to shine light on one that didn't get as much as it deserved. Also the more out of the box ideas is my vote for future mutant sculptures!
I definitely like when the characters have a base and "environment". I would love to see you interpret the characters from Wizard of Oz. The usual gang or... the characters in the other books, like "Return to Oz" TikTok would be cool in your style.
oh my goodness the wheelers would be amazingggg
YES I WOULD ABSOLUTELY LOVE MORE MUTANT UNIVERSE VIDEOS!!! I missed it so much this year and use them as inspiration for my art projects all the time. I've been drawing so much more because of them. I would love to see some more characters!
YES YES YES YES YES PLEASE MAKE MORE LABYRINTH CHARACTERS!!! Ludo, Hoggle Trash lady, Sir Didymus, fire goblins, The worm….. ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING!!!
I love your Mutant Universe characters. Please do more. You did a super job with each sculpture. May 2024 bring more success. 😊
Hey! For what it's worth, I am a subscriber and I have my notifications on, and Krampus never showed up on my notifications. This is my first time seeing him! I will watch it when this video finishes!

I honestly think that’s really a big key for me - a dynamic pose, whether standing (or sitting, pumpkin guy) is different and I like it ever so much more than just standing.
I love the ones with little animal friends like the scarecrow and Dracula! 🤩
Sculpts I would love to see 2024
Violet all swollen from Wonka! I can only imagine how amazingly cool you can transform her with your imagination.
More from labyrinth of course! And I would love you to continue the Disney characters Jasmin, Elsa, Merida, Mulan and some of the villains. They come out so well I wish there was a collection of these in the real world we could buy and display.
As far and characters from the mutant universe i myself really enjoy the mix that you provide us with of monster and humanoid with a bit of animalistic qualities.

All in all, I've been watching you for years and you can be a little critical of yourself so im happy to see you toot your own horn every once in a while! I will definitely go back and see some of the sculpts I missed. I really enjoy your contact please keep being you and doing what makes you happy regardless of view count and criticism youre amazingly talented and I love your content! Will be seeing more of your content 2024!
I really like the look of the Scarecrow sculpt/diorama. Very illustrative looking and it feels like its own little mini world. Also a little bit of a NBC vibe but less Goth, more old school Disney animation design influence. I dig it!
We like a sympathetic characters. lol The sad scarecrow. The sad pumpkin man. These trigger the "must fix" in a lot of people and we want to love these lost and sad creations.
I love all of your work, I love your vision and sense of style. But your Mutants World characters are my favorites. I love that you have both the out there ones AND the human looking ones, the variety is what makes them work so well as a universe to me.
Those last two were a real step up. It's good to push yourself a little now, and then.
I loved the pumpkin guy! The added element of him sitting on the bench was fun but he was also just an endearing character 😄
More mutants please!!! I love your mutant universe and all the lore behind each character!! ❤
Also, I did not receive any notifications for the altered animatronic style creations. I didn't even know they existed until today. I don't know if that's why they didn't do as good as you thought they should maybe others didn't get the notifications for them either
I think turning the mutant/hidden world universe into a connected anthology of short stories would be a great idea. Each story can be about a specific character or two, and the overall collection would be able to tell a larger story going on. It would really allow you to focus in on each character and give them their own spotlight within the world.

I would loooove to see you start getting into dioramas and bigger projects (but with your signature characters, too!). I wonder if it would feel more attainable to try new things or do big/more detailed projects if you uploaded longer videos less often? As much as I would miss the weekly upload, I know there are a lot of artists who only upload once every two weeks or even once a month so they can do bigger projects. Might be fun to try. I can imagine uploading sculptures every week could turn into a grind. And YES to more hidden world characters! Those are my favourite :)
Happy New Years Ace! 😊 What an awesome year of sculptures.
Pleaae go more into your Hidden World. Its my absolute favorite part of your channel.
The cat scarecrow was one of my absolute faves because of the entire theme. I also love the vampire and bat hes just amazing and I love the pumpkin on the bench bc hes just a part of all of us totally misunderstood.
Please please please PLEASE do more Labyrinth character sculpts!!! Also, YES, please do more of the Guide characters - I love them!
I'd love to see more Mutant Universe sculptures! They're so cool and I love hearing you talk about the lore of the characters and their world. Happy New Year, Ace and everyone! ❤️
Happy New Year!!! ❤️❤️❤️👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I really like small additions to the characters...bench, trees, poles, rocks and small diaramas. BUT I would watch anything you create!❤🎉
My favourites of your designs are the victorian style gentlemen like Times New Roman guy and the ghost and I also liked the creepy graveyard groundskeeper guy. Would love to see you create a new font inspired sculpture if you aren't sick of exploring that idea.
I 1000% support a full (or however many you're willing to make) Labyrinth cast!
I honestly wanna see you move into stop motion figures. Your characters are so amazing and the world you are building has great story’s to tell - it’s something that fit into your desire for dioramas! Idk you rock! You can do anything. ❤
Love all your sculpts . So hard to choose a favorite. You’re so talented I can’t imagine thinking of something to sculpt each week, making it look so easy and always a beautiful result. Bravo , you’re an awesome artist. All the best in the New Year! ❤️
The contemplating pumpkin man on the bench is my favorite from this year. Can't wait to see what you do next year!
We loved your Krampus!
More Hidden World!! Guides!! Love them
love your sculptures!! omg i would Love to see more labyrinth characters. ludo and sir didymus would probably be a challenge but also a lot of fun!!! and i think hoggle would look GREAT in your style.
Ace, you continue to inspire me! My son bought me the sculpting accessories I hoped for at Christmas and I just ordered one of your sculpting mats! Can't wait to get started on my projects, hope to have at least 2 done by the time of my local exhibit in June!
My favorites here are , Wednesday, Cinderhella, Rameses, The Bellboy, Greylock, The Inkeeper, Teh Umpa-Loompa, Jareth, Boogeyman, Pumpkin Creeper, Scarecrow, Vampire, the Pumpkin on the bench, SNow Meister, Heat Meister. I love the detailing on WIlly Wonka, and I'd love to see a sweeter version of him!
Congratulations to you, and congrats to all the sculptors who sent in their pictures! Fantastic!
It's wonderful that you also shared other's work. The mark of a generous person.
I really like when use the more realistic fiber hair as it adds a lot to the overall look. I would love to see more dioramas and multiple character builds. It would be cool to see a subterranean build or haunted mansion build or evil gingerbread house. Also different takes on classic movies like The Wizard of Oz, etc.
More mutants!! Also, more dioramas! Love the few you did.
Happy New Year Ace! The sculptures were all pretty good this year! Here's to another year of amazing sculptures. 🍵
Awesome makes this year! I think adding props to the characters really adds to the story. I liked the simplicity of the bench because it added to the character and didn't distract by being overly detailed. Your viewers are super talented, I enjoyed their makes very much. Happy 2024 everyone!
Scarecrow was my favorite of the year but the grave keeper is still my all time favorite piece of yours!
I love the Mutant- and Guide sculpture universe! Please do more of them! :D
Please do more mutant universe videos
Both quantity and quality of all these pieces are equally impressive and inspirational! I do have a sweet spot for monsterized 2D characters like your Disney princesses, and they were all fantastic, but I think my 2023 favorite has to be the Bellhop 🙂 Belated happy new year, excited to see what you come up with in '24!
I would love too see more of The Mutants! The world building and stories to each character is really fasinating!
Definitely LOVEEEE the dioramas aspect!!
I love all your sculptures but my favourite has to be jareth from labyrinth, would love to see more from that film as there are so many cool characters and obviously the hidden world, mutant universe both mutants in any form and guides! Just love their background stories you put together. I also really liked the soul eater, was hoping you would do that concept again. Can’t wait to see what you create in 2024!! Happy new year 🎉
I'm excited about more Guides! The wolf guide is my favorite :)
I would love you to do more mutant. That have been some of my favorites.

I need more Mutants Universe!! It’s what got me so into your videos. You are an amazing storyteller and the lore you’ve created is amazing. Keep doing what you love and we’ll be here supporting you along the way. Happy New Year Ace!!
I have to agree. The mutants brought me here as well. His storytelling could make him into a great author as well.
See you next year Ace, happy new year.
*Ace of clay* - Be proud of your sculptures, they are are fantastic!
I'd love more labyrinth characters. You made some awesome sculptures this year as always. I do like the sculptures that have props or bases a lot.
I love the two end of year sculptures. I just found your channel a little while ago and have been binging on your adoption videos along with Nerdecrafter. Thank you for the wonderful videos.
This is so cool 😊😊😊❤❤❤
I'd definitely love to see more of the Hidden World characters, good or bad guys!
What a great collection & awesome accomplishment! I have enjoyed watching you grow over the last few years. Your painting has really improved & I love the addition of glossy accents in the mouths, drool, etc. I personally do like to add accessories to my "doll" creations. I think customers like when they can actually do things with them (play? lol) like poses... mine have things like capes, or fur coats, crazy hats or helmets, staffs, etc, that they can remove, change, whatever.... but one thing I do that I think they like also, is that I try to make a component that can be worn on a necklace too... a lil bonus, lol... mine are often done with crystals cuz they're not really monster-ish, but like that lil hanging bat would be cool... make good conversation pieces!😁 Just sharing one of my secrets, shhhh!🥰❤❤❤
I love all of your sculptures and next year in 2024 I really want to see more videos of the guides and I want to see a whole video of the guides together and you are my favorite sculptor and I'm also a huge fan
I really love the photographer it looks both like an entity and a human.
YES! More Mutant characters. I could give you so many ideas. If you run out of ideas for the Mutant Universe, just ask.
And Otto should be the next Guide plush.
I don’t really have a preference for the humanoid Mutants or the monstrous ones.
More Universe!!!! Ur characters work so well! Each one fleshes out the over all idea (as I understand it 😅) so well. And my 2 kids are screaming for a Greylock plushie as I type soooo........❤
I loved the singing one. Your work is amazing.
Thank you for another great year. I'd love more of your humanoid original characters.
I'd love to see more of the Guides from your Hidden World series. They're my favorites!
👋🏻HI! May 2024 bring you all the creative messy success!
I recently found your Channel after wanting to delve back into the sculpture world. WOW the hope you've given me! I gave up after suffering a super toxic relationships, It's so easy to listen and believe the nasty things huh. Unfortunately I left in a rush and yep, I left all my materials and gear there. SO many years have passed and it's coming up to my birthday, I have been brave and asked for some my clay dream to be fulfilled! (Gotta love amazon gift lists) EEK! so fingers crossed. I was so lucky to have a great sculpture studio where I studied fine art in London, I passed with a Merit in sculpture so I'm hoping I can bring back the skills I learnt there and passion, I loved it so much!
You've helped with your passion!!! As it's shown here and in all your video's and it's also lovely that you list all your tools! Thank you!!!!! I see people shout ideas for your next creations and I would personally love any creature (costume once transformed) from the Halloween game, Costume Quest. The evil French fries crab is my favourite, but I also second the return to OZ TikTok 💚
You asked if we like the humanoid or more out there monsters, for me it has to be the out there crazy ones!!
Keep kicking butt while enjoying what you do, such an inspiration!!!! THANK YOOOOU!!!!
you are so ridiculously talented. wow, just wow.
Anthony, thank you so much for another year of your delightful sculptures and for this review video. It is so interesting to me to listen to your opinions after the fact about the wonderful sculptures you created throughout the year. Please continue to be constructively critical about your work, but not quite so hard on your choices, talents and what you think viewers feel about any particular sculpture. I love how you experiemented with different mediums and ventured into new waters with the creepification of the animatronic figures. I look forward to more Mutant Universe characters especially the Spirit Guides. The background narrative about your characters add so much to the enjoyment of each of your characters and makes us more invested in the appreciation of each piece. I look forward to more merch including other plushies and your signature products. I wish you continued great success in 2024 and beyond.
Yes! More Hidden World characters!!!
I LOVED the two figures with the moving and talking parts. But for some reason TH-cam didn’t show them of at all. And I follow you and have you on “all videos” bell. I will look at them now and give my love ❤❤❤
You are so talented, I love everything you have made. I must try to make a scary sculpture to scare my grandkids, lol. It’s not as creepy as it may sound, they get a kick out of their quirky nana. I have a set of twin grandsons who would love to make some polymer clay figurines. They have a portfolio of characters they have drawn on paper and I think next time they visit we are going to try one of your figures. Continued luck with all your endeavors!
Yes!!
If you make another guide plush…I would love the wolf guide or the raccoon guide 💜
Thanks for another crazy sculpture year, I'd like to see you do some Dark Crystal Characters in 2024, and on that note, Happy New Year, Anthony (Ace).
Awesome jareth sculpt id also love to see some dark crystal sculpts also!!!
Yes we want to see more mutants videos!! That's what led me to your channel and I miss them!
Great stuff and I think that 'Snow White' came off the crashed Alien space ship they found in the ice down Antarctica.
Im definetly in favor of more Hidden World stuff, its hands down my favorite series of yours. Although i think it would be cool to focus more on the other characters besides the mutants like mr.smiles
Happy New Year!
I would like to see more mutants. I like the nonhuman ones but I think you should do what is in your mind. It seems your mind can tell you what you want to make. The reason I don't watch some of the videos is I don't have the time and go back later to watch them. I look forward to Fridays for your video. I love love, love your animatronics, and your collaboration with Jazz. I liked the singing Krampus. I thought you may go that route once you redid the Elf on a shelf.
Your mutant characters are always my favorite of the ones you do!
Happy New Year, Anthony! I love these year end retrospectives. I realized as I watched that I am drawn to your sculpts that include some context, if that’s the right word. The scarecrow and the pumpkin guy on the bench, for example. You gave little slices of their world to contextualize them a bit more. I feel similarly about the Vampire and Grinch, who are holding things. The Vampire is regarding the little bat. I guess interaction with their environment may be another way to regard them. Some sculptures shine, regardless, like the Goblin King and Babadook. I personally didn’t care for the princesses, though your point is taken about drawing eyes 🧐
I would love to see more characters from Labyrinth. Always loved that movie. Also, of course more from your mutant universe.
Happy New Year to you I really enjoy your Mutant Universe stories and definitely want more of them Thank you
Love the mutants. David Bowie would be proud of your sculpture! It was a great movie...
I've been stalking your videos for years and not sure if I've ever left u a comment but because you're such an inspiration and I've learned so much from you, I felt I could at least do that. I truly love your style....especially the figures that have a slightly larger head. The texturing you do often makes them almost look as though they've been carved in wood. They have an antique feel to them even though they may be contemporary subjects. I luv the Halloween that you bring to almost everything. I love your alien guy, WillyWonka, and the OompaLoompa, Jared from Labrynth....and so many others. The likenesses to the characters is instant yet you make it your own. I was delighted to see you doing anamatronic stuff! I loved watching u do Crampus and trying out Apoxie Sculpt...wondering if u ever did the body of the dragon head u made...? The way you do eyes by putting a disc in the socket to create the eye and eyelids is brilliant and I've seen other people credit you for that. I'm sure others have must have did eyes that way but it seems that usually they just create the lids. How u do it is so obviously simple and very effective. I luv when u add hair but like on the Snow Mizer guy, not having real hair at that scale especially lends itself to that wood carved look that I luv. I don't know anything about the mutant world u speak of nor keep with any trends but I luv your style, execution and how prolific you are. Can't wait to see what you do this year. Thank you so much for sharing your brilliant art but also your processes and growth. I'm a forever stalker! :)
Love all your Mutant Universe characters and their stories! I look forward to meeting more of them next year. Happy New Year!
8:49 your so cool.😀 You put Santa hats on all your Statues.😍 So cool.😊🎅🏻🧑🎄
Yes we need more guide plushies I want the wolf guide but also I really like the cat guide and the owl guide and I thought what if you we’re to bring out a plush bundle of the guides? The guide plush bundle😊
I like all of mutations and keep making them I enjoy the story and how you build them
I don't usually comment, but I love your videos and your sculptures. You are so talented. I love your Hidden World characters. Very interesting worldbuilding. Thanks for your content.
what a great year! 🥹🥹❤️ you are so great at textures and fabrics, and your characters are all so expressive. I’ve been watching for a long time & love & appreciate your transparency throughout your sculpting journey. It definitely helps me to stay motivated and excited about my own. I hope 2024 is another incredible year for you & your sculptures!! ❤❤❤
Hullo Anthony, I am a fan of the mutants and your stories about your universe! I like the guides and they are humanoid at the core of them they are your heroes! I hope you do more stop motion style sculpts. I was not a real fan of the princesses. Yet I watched your videos. I would love to see your “take” on established worlds, I saw a reference to the OZ books there are so many creatures and unique characters too! In fact you kinda did the Jack Pumpkinhead! He originated from OZ! I do like your dioramas and know they are always more work but I believe they tell more of a story and you don’t have to demonize them in your sculptures for you to have a successful sculpture! Thank you for sharing your sculpting journey with us!
