  • Thanks for being so patient with me it means the world.. this video is unedited so if it seems difficult me talking thats because it is. The magic of editing usually takes that away but I wanted this video to feel natural. I miss you all, feel free to say hi you know I always appreciate it. ♥

    I’m so glad you’re getting there. I don’t know where there is but you’re definitely getting there. I lost my Dad to cancer during covid and so we were able to care for him at home and I know being able to do that helped me . You were the person that got me into polymer clay and for that I’ll be forever thankful. I have a very small family and only 2 friends and now through polymer clay I meet a group of ladies who I teach polymer clay techniques to. So now it’s my turn to say thank you. You’ve helped me change my life xxxxx

    I have just found your channel looking for some tips for clay sculpting and I have fallen in love with your talent and personality so quickly. I’m so happy to see you doing a little better and can’t wait to see new projects you might share with us in the future. Also the beard looks great! Please take care and be well ^^

    I was there exactly ten years ago. It took a long time and I swore I'd never get over it. But I did and here I am having a great time. So hang on to your wife and family and to your friends here and say hi to your mom everyday...because she's always there for you, take my word for it. Thank you for rambling and thank you for your fabulous tutorials. Blade up and keep claying!

    I just watched your monkey sculpting sequence from 5 years ago - it was so entertaining and great to watch! Then I ventured to your channel to see more content and have just seen this and your previous video. I was reduced to tears but its so great to see you like this. SO so grateful that your channel exists I'm glad I've got a lot more to watch as well :)

    I'm so glad to see you back, and are in good spirits. I want to say thank you for all the wonderful work you do on your channel. Your works with clay are not only amazing but have inspired me to sculpt characters of my own. At first I was unsure of where to even begin, but your videos are so informative that you've given me the confidence to build them properly and to have fun. Thank you so much and look forward to seeing you again soon! Love from Canada.

    Take it day at a time, it gets easier! I too lost my Mum 5 months ago, not to Covid! She was given 6 months to live an we were lucky and got to spend 10 great happy months with her. Every parent would want their kids to remember the good times and remember their strength! Keep doing what you do and smile! Your beard is fine! Just think come Christmas 2021 you called to be a step in Santa!

    Thank you for your calm, calming voice and sweet spirit. As I run through the channels it becomes clear the world is turning too fast for me to keep up. Stopping here on your video helped slow it down a bit. I’m glad to hear you’re working through your loss. It’s hard, but necessary. Your beard is yours...maybe you should make a little model of a head and try different styles in clay. That way you won’t have to go through too many changes to find what you like! Thanks again, will check back often to see how things are going...and when I need a little rest from the zippy world.

I firdt started binging a few of your older videos for tips and info and not only are you a great artist but I just like how you explain things. I made it to your previous video and honestly I cried. On a personal level you remind me of myself and after hearing what happened to you it really touched me, I couldn't imagine.
    However, i'm also very happy to hear you're doing better and I hope you continue to be. I look forward to any future content you put out and I subscribed with notifications so don't miss anything. Continue making entertaining videos, im like spamming all your videos right now and god bless.

I hope you can find peace and don't feel pressure or fear when it comes to coming back. You seem to have such a warm heart and it shows in your work.

    I've just seen your monkey video from some years ago and then your video with the heartbreaking news. You are a very sweet person and deserves all the best. I lost my dad unexpectedly in 2019, he was gone in a matter of a couple of months. I live in a different continent from where he resided and man, the trip to attend his funeral was the worst long haul flight I have ever made. I still think of him every single day and have met him in "dreams" a couple of times. He is fine, younger and happier. They still live, my friend, believe it. Our soul never dies and one day we will be reunited with our beloved ones. Sending you lot's of love from the UK. 🌹

It's so crazy to see that you've been active all this time, and it's so nostalgic watching your videos once again! That being said, I'm so sorry about what you're going through right now, and I wish the best for you and your family. Hang in there, hope to see more updates from you in the future.

    Very glad to see you seem to be in a better place and I hope things keep going your way. Solidarity, sir.
    Beard trimmers with various lengths of comb on them might help with the beard - put it on a long setting and you can trim the beard to an even length, then it'll all be within a similar length to it. That might mean taking quite a bit off the impressive growth ya already got though, so that might not be how ya wanna go about it.
    Peace!

    Female,but have dated bearded men lol......trim with clippers only like inches at a time to get rid of split ends and there are affordable beard oils that will keep it soft, less pokey for the ladies and your neck.

I went to see my little sister this past summer ads I was helping her because she had cancer. I missed one day and thought she would be fine because I was there the day before but when she wouldn't answer her phone I sped over there and found her passed away on her couch. The what ifs I always ask my self are still to this day maddening. It will get a little easier. I see in your eyes what a very kind soul you are, I wish you the very best. Stay safe and well.

    Do what ever makes you happy. If it turns out it’s not for you it’s only hair and you could cut it off or grow it back. I always had really long hair that eventually I felt I needed to color to avoid the gray. When I retired I walked into Bi Rics(at the time) and told them to cut it all of and only leave an inch. The 18” was donated to Wigs for Kids. It was so freeing. Next I stopped coloring to avoid the chemicals. Again so freeing and I am so much more happier with my short gray hair. Less work. I can see where wearing a beard might be a little easier to wear to minimize shaving. That would drive me nuts if I had to do it every day or twice a day. Guys deal with it I guess. I know some of the bikes wear beads in their hair and beard. Lol polymer clay beads for dudes would be and interesting project.
    Looking forward to your videos.
    Have fun and enjoy every moment I life. 💗

    ..but I first saw your work when cosplay launched ....
    ....I loved your weird green slug...
    ...finally uve been inspired to start making things from sculpy clay and cos clay
    ..but was stunned to see one video telling me not to use the stuff ...as it is very dangerous...lethal to some people.

No power last Monday or Tuesday with 6 degrees outside and a negative wind chill. Was 34F in the house and I was worried about my pets and my orchids. Also my bottles of epoxy resin. Everything is fine now but not sure about the epoxy yet. I hope they are okay as that is quite a bit of cash sitting there on the shelf.

    Hello! Hairdresser here. To answer your question about your beard IF you still have it. Shampoo it, use conditioner on it , use a beard oil and brush it! It will help soften it! Not to be funny but some men have this disconnect that its still hair and can be treated as such. You don't necessarily have to trim it unless you want to maintain order /same length. I hope this helps!
    I hope you are doing well and sending cyber hugs! 💓~~

    Keep the beard! It looks nice and it looks healthy. But you have to treat it kind of like hair, in a way. From what I understand, you need to trim the ends to get rid of split ends. You should also put a conditioner in it to keep it really healthy. Lush has some nice ones!
    Glad that you're back and doing better, relatively speaking. Yours was the first channel I ever subscribed to about a decade ago!

    Cut that beard down, you look more handsome with a shorter beard.
