I've been so tempted by this stuff. My kid is getting into sculpting lately and I think this would be so useful for learning and practicing with. You sold me on in it. I think either Santa or myself might be bringing it this year...
I've tried it as a newbie, and it is great. I am trying to figure out how to make a mold
@@Jynnifer Robert Tolone has some absolutely excellent videos on mold making, i would suggest checking them out
Monster Clay has been a game changer for me in sculpting figures for my cuckoo clocks. I'm able to sculpt a size in which I can attain detail, then I scan and 3D print any size I want. For the Bald Eagle cuckoo for my Old Glory Cuckoo Clock I could never have carved an eagle head like that at such a tiny size. I came to You Tube to look for tips on smoothing the clay as I'm working on a family for a Stuckey's Cuckoo Clock. Your tips helped me tremendously. I'm so grateful for your video!
Hi! Tell me please do you have some problems with transportation to the scanner? Is the sculpture not damaged?
Came for the Monster Clay tips. stayed for the Derek Trucks guitar solo. Nice touch.
Rock on!
You could also try digitally scanning the finished sculpture and doing a clean up in a 3D program. People provide those types of services. Then you wouldn't be damaging your original.
2:13 that one is stunning, what a beautiful form
Thank you!
More Monster Clay tutorials. Thanks.
I think is one of the best purchases I ever made.
Thanks, medium works perfectly ❤
Hugs from Ireland
Yahooo! It’s the best!
I’ve been using Monster Clay for years and LOVE it. That said, I use a hot box I made with a lamp to warm the clay instead of using a microwave or oven. Because I believe they make it like a soup if you get distracted.
I also use a alcohol lamp for my tools to smooth the clay out for amazing details.
All in all, Monster Clay rocks!
Great tips!
Hey I've been thinking about buying, the one question I got is how does it dry? Will it always be that little bit soft or does it harden?
I'm so sorry for not responding earlier, as I've been traveling oversees and am not online a lot when I travel. But, Monster clay never dries, because it's a oil-based elastic clay, similar to wax. But there are 3 different grades of hardness, Soft, Medium and Hard.@@skygameslife2579
I been using Monster clay medium for a few years now. I make Michael Myers masks and other Horror types. I like that i can reuse it after i take it out of my mold. Saves money .
Appreciate your tips especially about the 3 ways to smooth it. Very helpful! Thank you!
and yes thank you for your knowledge
Your are fantastic. I wish I had your talent. I love clay molding. Is like bringing dreams alive. Tks for all your information in your videos. Keep them coming.❤
Just came across your video, nice info.
I used monster clay just once and didn't know much about it at all, so it still sitting there.
Now I can do a something ha.
Thank you
You are most welcome!
A really good breakdown and look forward to trying this out 😎👍🏻
Have you ever tried mixing the hard and medium, or brown and gray, to see what color and consistency comes out of it? I've done that with super sculpey and sometimes get some useful blends for certain types of projects.
My man, I don't have OCD but after reading your question my OCD was triggered
I Actually made more of a Carving Wax out of it, i got the Hard kind and then added 15% by Volume Caranuba wax to it. "you can add up to 25%, but im not sure if i would add more than that. it makes it ROCK hard.
Very insightful! Thank you
You are welcome
extremely helpful vid, thank you 😊
You're welcome!
I cast chess men in resin and in exactly that same colour teak resin pigment I mix my own
Super informative thank you!
Seeing this I wonder why the soft or even medium version exist, right? I mean if you can soften it for molding, don’t you want your shape to hold as much as possible once you’re done shaping? And then if you want to make any modifications you just soften it up again with heat. So it seems like getting the hard version is a no-brainer.
Or am I missing something?
Yeah I’m not sure, I had the same question. The soft is very soft. Maybe for people with weaker hands? I’m sure there is a use somewhere.
Yeah, I only use the hard version, and prefer the gray color for seeing my details better.
You just nead to learn mould making it's not to hard love your sculptures
All you have to do is put it under a lightbulb and reflector and it will stay soft. Not microwave needed!
very informative video. thanks for the wisdom.
xem bạn làm rất tuỵệt vời ,hay lắm ,
Really helpful Video thanks 🙏🏽
I got some monster clay today.
FIVE STARS,,, thannnnnnnk you,,,, EXCELLENT :)
I've heard of monster clay but never tried it. Thanks for the tips Darynn. 🙂👍
can you mix soft and medium Monster clay?
Yes you can!
Thank yu
You’re welcome 😊
Hi... i think that you should by old dentist tools on a fleamarket. They are sturdy and made for this type of action. I am personally not a big fan of these alluminum tools. By the way.... nice Vid.
Tell me, please, if I will sculpt from “hard”, how strong is the finished figure? I need to transport it for scanning. Is it really possible to do this? Maybe I need to cool it down a lot or put something cold next to it and take it in a refrigerator bag by taxi to the scanner? I am afraid that the details will be destroyed 👀
I use Medium, and it stays firm, but definitely melts quickly in the heat. It’s easy to knick & dent. The Hard would be better. You would want to package the sculpture in a manner that allows nothing to touch it.
@@DeeJayBeStudiosthank you so much ❤
Can you change the colors somehow before it's finished. I kinda hate If you can see that it's painted at the end
Supposedly you can paint it. It is a bit fragile though.
I have only used air dry clay and am about to use the Hard grey monster clay. Can you explain how it works if you sculpt over a few days and want to change something that is already cooled on the sculpture (like if you wanted your horses leg to be bent more) could you just use a blow dryer to warm it a little and then rebend the sculpt or would the surface just get soft and the leg be stuck in the position it was?
(or maybe even snap off)
That’s exactly what you would do yes! A hair dryer is just enough heat to soften it nicely. A torch or a heat gun would make things really gooey.
It’s wonderful stuff that way, that it’s able to be modified.
Saya dari Indonesia. Dimana saya bisa membeli monster clay dan bagaimana caranya. 🙏🏿
I would like to get a static dinosaur model and cast it to make a stop motion figure…I can get the armature but am clueless about the casting process, my expertise so far is in static model kits (tanks, planes, ships etc) any advice please?
we found rats really like this so we needed to store our projects safely.
Put heat proof latex gloves on for washing dishes in very hot water.
Does monster clay have a strong smell when heating it up? Id love to use this in my art assignments but I wouldn't want to stink up the whole classroom😭
It has a very mild smell, kind of like wax. But not strong, and does not fill the room! It would be perfect for class!
Does it harden?
it "hardens" as needed for mold making but does not harden in the way air-dry clay would. it's meant to be used over again so it retains flexibility. when heated it's stretchy and firms up when cold
am i the only one who thought of nutella when it was taken
it out of the microwave?
You should be using a dedicated microwave oven . Using the same oven as you cook your food in is not recommend as residue is left in oven and contaminats food .
I have a dedicated microwave for this clay now, but Monster Clay is non toxic & considered Food Grade.

Is the packaging some sort of commentary on Star Trek characters? Its called Monster Clay, and the character that is largest on the packaging is Spock.
It can't be a copyright thing or anything, because vampires or werewolves aren't trademarked properties.
They just hate Spock. Highly illogical.
That’s a question for Monster Makers
that music was extremely frustrating and annoying
Sorry.
Thank you for a wonderful, informative video. Unfortunately it is spoiled by a dreadful soundtrack which overwhelms your voice. What a shame!
I’m sorry you feel so passionately about that, try to ignore it! I do try to limit the audio I use in my future videos.
1:50 you're not making sense here.
Does it harden though?
It hardens enough to handle when cool, but can be reheated to use again furthermore.
@DeeJayBeStudios but I can't necessarily make a permanent sculpture correct?
Im wondering the same thing. Whats the point of clay that never hardens? What if u wanted to sculpt something to spray paint and put up in your room. Would u not be able to do that with this clay? Or should i just use air dry clay instead?
@@angiet9801 from what I’ve gathered from other videos, it doesn’t harden permanently, but enough that one could make a silicone mold - though that is very pricy
@@angiet9801 I make art toys and I am loving Monster clay, but I'm a professional sculptor with experience in the film and toy industries with my sculpting. It's either just good for practice (if you're learning), or great for professionals who are going to mold it. I sculpt my originals in it, then I do a silicone mold, and then I do a resin cast as my final piece (resin cures to a hard plastic like material). For example, I recently sculpted a werewolf for a sofubi (soft vinyl) toy I'm producing. The figure turns at the waist, so I sculpted the top and bottom half of the figure, made a mold of the top and bottom, and cast both pieces in hard resin. I then shipped the resin casts to a factory in China, and they're making the joints, and the final toy is hollow vinyl, and poseable at the waist :). So there is PLENTY of a "point" to have a non hardening clay. Most special FX shops use clay like this, if not this exact brand. The pros to it, is the elasticity, it has a great texture for posing a sculpt, and retaining details. You can also re-use it over and over again, which saves you money. My original werewolf sculpt I just melted down, and now I have another figure made from it. I used to use oven bake clays like Super sculpey, but the texture of monster clay is way better. If you're just wanting to do one of a kind pieces, or for a hobby....you could make a tinfoil or paper mache armature to bulk things up but not be too heavy, and then sculpt over it with an oven bake clay, or some sort of air dry thing. Keep in mind oven bake clays release toxic fumes while baking, so don't use an oven you cook food in. The fumes will never leave the oven. Personally I hate air dry clays because I work on my sculpts for days, as I do a lot of details. There are MANY types of clays, and each has pros and cons, just research the options. If you want a flexible oven bake clay that's a little more durable, look into cosclay....but again, have an oven or toaster oven that is used for clay only. Super sculpey firm is the best polymer/oven bake clay I have used for medium to large sculpts, but it's extremely fragile once baked (now I use monster clay as the texture is miles better).
