I wish this had more views, it's October 1st for me rn and I was looking at skull masks to make for Halloween to make my skeleton costume look better when I decided on making a pumpkin mask instead, I watched a couple videos and saw some pictures but this was the coolest looking one I could find. It's also within my crafting capabilities.
I’m glad I could help! It’s always great to hear how I helped others with their projects and thanks so much for watching!
I was searching for a tutorial of how to make those pumpkin head helmet, exactly like yours, thank youuu!
No problem! I’m glad you like the video and thanks for watching!!!
You are extremely resourceful and talented. Pumpkin head came out great.
Thanks I’m glad you like it!
A great option for a stuffed plastic bag is a beach ball. Keep the tube at the bottom to make it easy to deflate and reuse them.
True! I never thought of that one I’ve always used balloons and paper structures, good idea
i love seeing how other people make armitures. there’s always another way. i like this way. like a piñata you don’t have to destroy. thanks for this. if people want a smoother finish, i recommend a thin layer of dry wall, then smooth it out with a damp cloth after it dries, then gesso.
Good recommendation ill have to try that. I also have to try plaster and I might make a plaster helmet this year, not sure yet.
Thank you so much for this video, I was looking for ideas how to make an eco friendly armature for the pumpkin head and it’s exactly what I needed.
I love how yours came out and the bow tie was a nice touch ☺️
I'm glad you found the video helpful! Thanks for watching!
Dude this is fantastic, if you don't become a successful artist first, you would make a fantastic teacher
Means a lot, thank you
Me and my friend are doing the pumpkin head trend but don't want to waste pumpkins so we're gonna use this instead thanks for the help 🤠
Yeah no problem, I’m glad I could help! Good luck on your projects!
esta hermosaa la calabaza
Hii, random comment about the paint, if you want it to look less transparent then you could add cornstarch to thicken the appearance of the paint, happy crafting yall 🙃🎃
I’ve actually heard of that but I haven’t tried it, I will definitely try it out. Thanks for the feedback! And thanks for watching!
I love this!! I make corpsed pumpkins and I like to spray it black (inside and out), then white wash, then paint my orange on. Gives it an older, been sitting in the field kinda vibe. But you've inspired me to make a pumpkin head costume this year!
That’s a cool technique! I do wanna make more paper machete heads so I’ll have try that in the future! I’m glad I inspired you and you enjoyed my project! Thanks for watching!
I will try to make one for my son for Halloween hope i can craft a good pumpkin just like u did my lil one is a big fan of pumpkins
Sounds awesome, good luck!
Thank you, am so making a Pika-o-lanturn for this year
No problem I’m glad you like my video! I had to look up what a pika-o-lantern was and it looks cool! Good luck with your project!
This is amazing!! Thank you for the awesome idea, I want to make paper mache pumpkins to hang up for decor!! 🎃
That’s a great idea! I also thought about making paper mache pumpkin lanterns. That might be a future video! Thanks for watching!
Puedes usar un globo en lugar de las revistas. Hay uno que tiene forma redonda y es muy grande, te ahorra tiempo ☺️
Pero el sol lo quema y explota
Puedes secar a la sombra entre capa y capa, el sol de la mañana le ayuda mucho a secar ☺️ yo uso a menudo ese tipo de técnica 😊
@@karinhernandez7807a mi se me reventó el globo a la sombra sjdjdj
Omm, usa papel kraft, con dos capas ya puedes secarlo y si se revienta durante el secado, no se deforma 😊
great video thank you for sharing. Penny
No problem! I’m glad you like my video and thanks for watching!
Thank you! Came out amazing!
Thanks! Im glad you like it! Thanks for watching!
I should try this if I ever plan on cosplaying as Jack from Billy and Mandy.
It’s a fun project so I would suggest it! And it can be relatively cheep so it’s great for cosplay and costumes.
I totally want to do this someday.
It was a lot of fun! I would suggest trying to make a costume, it’s a lot of fun
@@ABArtStudios I might make it for a Halloween costume, but I'm just nervous on how it will turn out. It's been awhile since I've done paper mache.
@@austinrenteria I would just say go for it and worst comes to worst you can say you tried and learn from it. Also it’s not that hard if you have a good structure to your paper mache. Good luck!!
@@ABArtStudios thanks. I'll give it a shot.
ohh stupid me i spent so long looking for a baloon to buy yesterday! i should have watched this first!
Oops, we’ll balloons could work too, it just depends the shape you want. Thanks for watching!
Great hands on vid and editing.
Glad you liked it! Thanks for watching

Update about my last comment, mine turned out great the Halloween party I went to was awesome! Thanks man 🎃
No problem! Im glad to hear your costume went well! Thanks for watching!
@@ABArtStudios anytime!
SO underrated. You earned a new sub!
Thanks so much! I’m glad you enjoy my videos!
Great job! For the paint, one $6 can of really good orange spray paint would have been more than enough.
Yeah true, spray paint could work, it just gets a bit messy some times.
Wow awesome job
Thanks I’m glad you like it!
Freaking awesome
Thanks!
Wow so cool,..is it possible to use like a pva glue?
I think pva glue is wood glue right? I would say stick to the brand Elmer’s glue because if you mix a bit of water it holds together really well. Hope this helped and thanks for watching!
Awesome 👌 I love it,!!!!Happy Halloween 🎃
Thank you! You too!
how did you shape the pumpkin stalk?
I wrapped some masking tape around crumpled up newspaper and got the shape I wanted. Then I just paper mached over it.
I made one :3
Hi.
awesome!!! Hope it came out great and thanks for watching!
YW! Your so nice
@@ClNDY2.0 thanks! :)
Amazing😀
Thanks!
I've already made my costume for this year, I made a mushroom hat from paper mache, but I think I'll make a head like this with my left over papers...you know why not have two Halloween costumes??
lol that sounds awesome, I’m trying to figure out what to be for Halloween this year, good luck on your project!
@@ABArtStudios Thanks! good luck figuring out your costume!
hey I was wondering if you ever were able to remove the strings and also did you just lay the paper over top the string ? and how did you fasten the velcro to the inside? was it with a little glue ? thanks in advance .
Yeah I just paper mached over the strings and after the paper was dry I took out the plastic, paper and string. The Velcro, I just used hot glue. Hope this helped!
@@ABArtStudiosthanks yes I’m visiting South America for Halloween and decided to do this last minute and found your video the go to 👍😎🤘 going to a giant Halloween party and can’t wait to show your OG idea off. I’ll give you a shout out when there. Happy Halloween have a good one brother
@@andrewjohnson1253 Glad I helped! Have a good time, good luck!
Hi i was wondering if I can use flour and water to stick the paper?? Or just glue
Umm I’ve never heard of using flour so I wouldn’t suggest it but I would look up how to paper mache because there are videos that may go deeper into detail
Also I would say just use Elmer’s glue with a little bit of water and cover your strips of newspaper
Your paint would stretch further with a good can of primer
True, I should have thought about that, thanks for the advice
@@ABArtStudios no worries. Cool project! I may attempt something like this for Halloween
@@FishHeadsIV Yeah this project was a lot of fun so I would totally say try it out for your self and good luck!
you said you went to ocean state for more paint... are you from RI? awesome mask by the way!
No I’m not from RI and I wouldn’t suggest getting paint from ocean state, it’s not the best lol. I’m glad you like the mask!
@@ABArtStudios haha i have bought paint from there, as you said, not the best but it works in a pinch
@@nicholaswalker3200 true it’s works, I prefer the brand basic acrylic paint
I know im kinda slow because the video says what supplies I need but what supplies do i need?
has anyone tried the balloon method? would love to know how that works !!
Yeah I've tried it before, basically you need a balloon a bit bigger than the size you want your project, then take some string and tie around the balloon to make the indents in the pumpkin. I would use about 3-4 strings and tie them tight to change the shape of the balloon. You then paper Mache over and let it dry and after the paper Mache is dry you pop the balloon and let the inside dry out. I hope this helped, let me know if you have any more questions, ill try and answer!
@@ABArtStudios that did help a lot ! i was trying to make one with the balloon but it’s a little tricky - for me at least. My anxiety is afraid the right size balloon is going to pop, as well as one with a little less air but enough to make indents - lol. I switched to the bag method and it worked better just gotta make it a little more full - but hey it could be a cool costume or gift for my niece !
@@Breegan sounds awesome! I’m glad I could help and good luck on your project! Thanks for watching!
I just wanna know if it smells like rhe glue
It does for a little bit but after it airs out it doesn’t smell like that anymore
Which brand of acrylic did you use?Is it shiny at the end or I need to use a varnish?
I use the brand, BASICS acrylic paint and they do just fine. It did take a few coats of paint to cover the print of the newspaper but it works. It does dry matt so there's not much shine when it dry's completely.
@@ABArtStudios Thanks a lot for your instant reply!
@@Fragki No problem! Good luck on your projects and thanks for watching!
What type / size of bag should I use? I tried a target bag but it was too small
You could always use a trash bag and then just cut it down. I would say to try and find a bag about the size you want your helmet / costume and then go slightly larger due to paper mache shrinking.
@@ABArtStudios alright thanks bro!
@@Jor.505. yeah, no problem, good luck!
How the fuck am I supposed to draw a circle after I measured my head? Impossible. This is so damn frustrating.
you can stick paper on a balloon and then pop it
@@esfrvvrn I already have the paper mache made. The problem I'm having is making a circle the same size as my head to cut it open.
@@censorshipisforcowardsYT that is a struggle, I had to cut a hole around the size I thought my head was and I kept trying it to see if it fit, then I went back and cut more where I needed. Cut a hole smaller then what you need because you can always cut more, but you can’t really add more paper mache on
@@ABArtStudios I eventually did the same thing lol. Thanks for the response. I tried measuring my head but that didn't result in much.
@@censorshipisforcowardsYT Glad you figured it out, good luck on the project!
Looks ummmm......not ummm .........good
Ok….. lmao
