    Fun fact: male kelpies are rare in the mythology they come from! So this guy is extra special!

      @@starbatcraft another cool fact is that most kelpies are shown as black, but the one in the story of the River Spey was a white one that lured riders onto its back with singing. There are even some rare stories kelpies being helpful. Also one story where a kelpie becomes a mortal human to marry a girl he fell in love with. Such a cool piece of folklore!

    I clicked on the thumbnail because it looked like a certain anime chimera but damn I wasn’t disappointed when I watched this kelpie come to life. You’re very good at sculpting and the result is wonderfully spooky

    Really like the cream and eyeshadow shading on this guy. I was worried you'd wipe out all the red undercoat, which was a good choice for a white. And look at you, adding reds to the grass! I'm impressed! I wish there was a little more harmony in the reds of the grass and the red of the exposed muscle, and that the bone had gotten some of the cream shading.
    Take this guy to a show. He will kill!

    Yaaaas Kelpies! I love seeing all the artistic takes on them. I was gonna recommend Cosclay for future seaweed endeavors, as it stays flexible after baking, then remembered you have to bake that... probably shouldn't put plastic danger ponies in the oven. (Elsa fighting and taming a Kelpie was the only good part of Frozen 2 in my not terribly humble opinion... TLDR I know too much about dams to enjoy the rest. And I will not be convinced it's just a magic water horse!)

  • @LostTideLover
    @LostTideLover 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +13

    As a Kelpie, I approve of this! ♥
    All jokes aside though, immediately subscribing. I thought 'this looks cool' and put your video on for background noise while I worked but I just couldn't look away. The mustang body was a perfect pose for it. And your attention to detail is spot on, i got so giddy when i saw the reference images behind the sculpt while you worked, it's acurate and beautiful and the glowing effect is incredible. I adore these kind of sculpts, i'm an immediate fan!

  • @halmoser
    @halmoser 18 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

    If you do something like this again, I recommend Cosclay!! It's a clay that stays bendable after baking, which yeah doesn't work with all models you may use I'm not sure, but if you do, it could add a TON of movement to the hair and keep it from being fragile!
    Amazing video!!!

    Looks awesome, love that you did a lighter head instead of a dark one but it is beautifully scary and elegant. It did feel a little boring in the back when you revealed the whole thing. I think if you had added some strands of seaweed in the tail it wouldve tied it all together but that is awesome, keep up the talent

    You did a fantastic job. However personally I think that the blue / white light is too bright and the eye sockets are too round. I would like to have seen it with a little bit of flesh and or maybe pieces of the mane or even seaweed hanging over them just to make them less pronounced, less perfect looking. Still a fantastic job, better than I could have done and you have a new subscriber!
