Just joined! Thanks for everything you guys do! I always get excited to see the channel ramp back up! I’m going all out with a haunted house in my garage this year. Def using some of your ideas!
One of the best things I've found for black wings is to use a gloss black base coat, a heavy iridescent blue layer in random stripes, and then just a light pass of the final black coat. Iridescent blue under the black catches the light passing through the "feathers" and makes it almost glow with what looks like natural moonlight coming through the gaps and the thin areas of the material.
@@breespicer8324 exactly. look at Morris's costumes they spruce up a lot of home Depot animatronics but the price is ballistic. I should because I bought the hulking werewolf
The wings are terrific! And yes, I'd like to see the staff video! EDIT: Thanks for the "before and after" pictures! It's cool to see just how much better your version is!
Yes! I'd love to see a part two video covering the staff and any other parts that you want to make. Personally, I'd love to see the head covered in feathers rather than bone because it's kinda like having a fully fleshed body with just a skull for a head. Kinda like skeletor haha
I'm working at Spirit Halloween this year and you guys are seriously tempting me to spend all my paycheck just getting animatronics that won't fit in my tiny apartment. I'm an illustrator / painter and this is making me want to do some super detailed paint jobs and makeovers on some decorations.
Person advice is to wait until after Halloween, buy what is clearance, and do customizing on those. You save money and if you're still into it past Halloween season its a sign of a hobby worth taking up and maybe spending more money on in the future. Also buying smaller figures to customize might help build skills and help you decide what you like best and the thrift stores usually have stuff that will work foroutfitting.
The secondary movement of his arms not being super stiff kinda makes it feel like he's even more real! He's super cool out of box but I feel like his arm/wings are kinda awkward and this is a solution that makes him creepy but also beautiful in a way! So cool!
Amazing!! Here in Brazil, we don't celebrate Halloween, it's not a holiday, but in last 10 years, the Halloween culture has grown a lot here, and many people have themed parties in their homes! Unfortunately, we don't have Trick or Treat, we just do themed parties! My family decorates the house every year and I always make my own props in real size; Last year I made a cauldron like the that you guys did. I'll try to make a Lord Raven like yours, of course, it won't be an animatronic (because we don't have animatronics for sale here), but it will be like a statue!! Many thanks for those amazing videos!
I think this is by far my favorite one you guys have decorated. It's so stunning to watch as well, because you see this magnificent animatronic leave it's box, and it's already looking great and it has you wonder, "how are they going to improve on this?" but I SAW THE THUMBNAIL AND I WAS JUST WAITING FOR IT! It looked so good by the end... (and I'm glad the mullet didn't make a return, it looked too much like me when I was a teenager)
I'll be honest, the new Lord Raven gives me the vibe of he was once a nobleman, but for whatever reason (power? riches? immortality?) turned to the dark arts, the magic growing viler with time as his search continues. He shows his face less and less, fearful that people may see what this is turning him into. Until eventually, he's so far removed from his own humanity, he has no choice but to exile himself to the dark forest.
I love him! He kinda looks like a skeksis, mixed with a tengu. Your projects always make me want to fancy up my own halloween decorations/spoopy room décor.
I just found your channel and have been binge watching this morning. You two have given me some great ideas! I was looking forward to seeing what you did with LORD RAVEN so can't wait to watch! 😃 Keep up the great work! 👻🎃💀
Yes please show the staff being made. You all, thankfully, showed up on my feed. I love the work you do. You come up with some amazing ideas. Thank you!!
When I worked at Spirit last year, we had this guy right up front. I grew very fond of him and loved seeing him chat up the customers as they came in :) I love what you guys did with him! He looks even better than before!
Definitely the best makeover yet! And you guys already have some seriously epic upgrades under your belts! I feel like this guy is totally worthy of a second episode for his staff.
This makeover is amazing. The basic animatronic was good but he is so much cooler with wings and arms and the weathered strip with just enough color to give his robes some depth worked really well. I love that you shared other RUclipsr's techniques which goes to show that everyone can pick up hints from other creators. Great job!
I love these prop makeovers so much! Halloween is my favourite time of the year, and seeing people make things even better for that holiday is outstanding! ❤
Wow. It looks great 👍 Love the wings. From a forest haunter to a forest hunter. 😅 Oh yeah... Please diy a staff.... I like seeing your diy from scratch for Halloween.
Honestly I would love to incorporate this guy into a dnd campaign cause he sounds like something that would be in curse of Strahd or just Ravenloft in general
Guys, we don't mind a part II or III in videos! Please relax a bit! We will be here as your faithful audience for whatever n whenever u publish! Great job, as always! Thanks!
The arms even move too, which make it look even more realistic. Great job! You are really making me want to check out what is available in my area that I can remake for the upcoming holidays.
OMG, Such an Awesome, Wicked Makeover. So Sweet. Thanks For Sharing This. Yall Are Great Together. You Share Such Artistic Talent. Yall Rock, and Yes I Have Seen Stiltbeast Videos they Are Good.😀😃😊
I think this is your best one ever! The mullet cracked me up a bit. I kept thinking “business in the front, party in the back”. I thought Lord Raven looked good out of the box but y’all made him look 100% better. Genius to use the fake ferns as feathers and the wings, so clever. Kudos guys. More more more!
I had doubts how you were going to make this one better (because it looked amazing out of the box) BUT oh mai gosh it is a massive upgrade! It looks more menacing and so much more character depth ! Honestly bravo 👏🏻 I love the result & I love you both ❤
Probably one of my favorite makeovers. He very much gives me World of Warcraft vibes. I love it! And *chef's kiss* for the feathery neck ornament and wings not made from feathers.
Man, you folks are quickly becoming one of my favorite crafting channels, up there with squidmar and goobertown. You two constantly have a lot of creative ideas!
Fantastic! I’ve waaay over spent on animatronics this year (thanks to the buy now pay later options 😂 I’m not eating ramen) and using some of you ideas to make them my own (trips to yard sales and Goodwin for old kids clothing is next week). But this dude is beyond awesome with your adjustments! I’m doing a Haunted nursery school theme with LOTS of dolls and a few tricks here and there. You’ve definitely inspired me more than my usual set up (which has been a stop for selfies by parents for the last few years).
He’s absolutely badass looking, but the wings were so smart! Glad you guys shared this tip, I’ve always wanted to use wings in a cosplay and now I have some serious ideas on how to use them 😊
love how you gave lord raven some real tangible character! that's what i love so much about these makeovers. you don't just improve something, but make it have a personality. they all look like they've got some serious stories to tell! phenomenal work!👏 edit: not saying it doesn't look good to begin with; love that the animatronics keep improving! the details on lord raven's face and hands are really really nice!
Y’all never cease to amaze me. Jaimie’s idea to turn the faux leaves into feathers was brilliant! I appreciate all of your hard work to complete this project and video, you guys are the best! 🖤
That looks amazing!!! The plants to represent feathers is a piece of genius and those wings look great. Replacing the arms with moving wings and adding your own arms makes this animatronic 1000 times better than the original. I love your videos and I look forward to each one you produce.
Yes on the staff and HOLY COW you guys!! 😱 That's like the best one yet! Even with the shipping issues and going till the last minute, it still turned out wickedly awesome!
Aside from your incredible talent and imagination .... which I love...... you are such an enjoyable couple to watch working together. The fun you have with the project as well as each other is what definitely makes anyone want to create and create. Creating decorations, props and projects should be fun and having a partner working with you that enjoys being fun and silly at the same time is terrific. Thank you both for bringing such delight and fun into my Halloween creating and decorating..... keep it coming ....more, more, more. Love your ingenuity and resourcefulness, plus just plain having the guts to tackle redesigning something (or someone .... cue wicked laughter) like Master Raven. Thanks again....Judith
The transformation is just amazing. I love how you guys just "WING IT". It's great how you give credit to others you've gotten ideas and technics from.
You two are absolutely perfect together. Your ideas are incredible, and gets me in the mood to make some crafts. I am saving this video, hopefully I can get my grandsons involved in creating something close to this. We would have to do it in the middle of winter, because they’re both in school bands. But having in for next year’s Halloween is perfect. Again, you two are absolutely perfect together. Thanks for creating this channel.

This looks like a horror movie villain
Congrats on 300k!!❤❤❤
Congratulations!!! Great Job!!!
Using artificial plants as feathers is just genius! I'm definitely keeping that in my diy memory bank!
Yeah that was a clever move from Jaimie!!
@@WickedMakers would you say it was ... WICKED CLEVER 😂
OH HECK YES! Saves on time and money!
Literally word for word what I was going to say.👍 Ferns for feathers.. genius idea! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
@@Mari-vh2tu hope to use this for my future cosplays! This is a mad yet splendid idea!!😁😁😁

Great tip!!
the wings turned out absolutely perfect!! and the fact that you guys got them to move too is the cherry on top of it all. amazing work 🎃!
Thank you!!!
Spirit needs to hire you guys as designers because you make their bland animatronics absolutely incredible.
The animatronic designers have to design with price in mind. The costume is simple so that it's not a $500 animatronic~!
@@breespicer8324 exactly. look at Morris's costumes they spruce up a lot of home Depot animatronics but the price is ballistic. I should because I bought the hulking werewolf
That's why their videos are so cool cause you can do it yourself
yes😂😂😂

I bet you could sell them for decent money since they’d be one of a kind designs!

@@krose6451 right
You could also buy Halloween decorations second hand and makeover those!
I love how candid and semi unscripted you guys are. When I DIY, I learn along the way like you.
Glad to hear it!!!
There’s something about them that I find relaxing and calming to listen/watch

Your house must look so cool during Halloween.
Hahah yes!
@@WickedMakers you need to do a video showing your house decorated! That would be so cool
Since when Was Halloween One Day? It's a lifestyle, no?
@@WickedMakers house tour once it's fully decorated for halloween!!!????

Yes!!! Giving characters stories is the so much fun and helps the creative process immensely. I love this.
These new animatronic makeovers are seriously some of the best halloween related videos that have been out recently
aint that a fact
I love him! He kinda looks like a skeksis, mixed with a tengu. Your projects always make me want to fancy up my own halloween decorations/spoopy room décor.
YES. The moment the collar/feather ruff went on, I yelped "Skeksis!" and startled my cats.
I just found your channel and have been binge watching this morning. You two have given me some great ideas! I was looking forward to seeing what you did with LORD RAVEN so can't wait to watch! 😃
Keep up the great work! 👻🎃💀
😄😄😄 awesome!
The fact that there is no mechanics in its arms but just the movement of the whole thing itself makes the arms move almost realistically is amazing!
Looks amazing! I would love to see a video on a wizard's staff from you guys!
Ok cool!
Yes please show the staff being made. You all, thankfully, showed up on my feed. I love the work you do. You come up with some amazing ideas. Thank you!!
That. Was. AWESOME! One of your best makeovers! I'm totally down to see the big glowing staff too!
Amazing how incredible those wings turned out. Overall an amazing overhaul.
When I worked at Spirit last year, we had this guy right up front. I grew very fond of him and loved seeing him chat up the customers as they came in :) I love what you guys did with him! He looks even better than before!
Thank you so much for working so hard on your projects! I absolutely love watch your creations being made! Especially during the Halloween season!
Thank you!!!

Suspended, in a hand gliding style position, he’d be next level cool.
Yes!!!
Awesome work guys! He looks fantastic. The wings give him an awesome silhouette and the tattered robes and belts add so much visual interest.
Thank you!!
This straight up looks like a D&D character, and I’m totally here for it! Love the wings especially!
I love these prop makeovers so much! Halloween is my favourite time of the year, and seeing people make things even better for that holiday is outstanding! ❤
Same!!!
Wow. It looks great 👍 Love the wings.
From a forest haunter to a forest hunter. 😅
Oh yeah... Please diy a staff....
I like seeing your diy from scratch for Halloween.
Honestly I would love to incorporate this guy into a dnd campaign cause he sounds like something that would be in curse of Strahd or just Ravenloft in general
Yes!! He’s like a Kenku warlock

Me too
This is beyond cool!!! I love it!!!
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻❤️❤️❤️

Started decorating outside my house yesterday- finishing today! So excited!
Nice!!!!
Looks incredible 💜💜you guys always kill it with your projects

Awesome. My 6 yo granddaughter and I have been watching all of your old videos. She loves you guys and your creativity!
That turned out amazing! I can only imaging what would have come out if he'd gotten there on time. Nice work!
Thanks Terry!
Wow. From "store bought common" to "uncommonly extraordinary" !!!!! This is really super cool! Kudos to you both. 🌹🌹🌹👏👏
That turned out absolutely amazing! But he DOES need a staff. If you make one, please do a tutorial on that. Can’t wait to see him with it.
Probably one of my favorite makeovers. He very much gives me World of Warcraft vibes. I love it! And *chef's kiss* for the feathery neck ornament and wings not made from feathers.
Could you imagine their yard on Halloween?! Like it would be jam-packed with all these animatronics!! 😂
That looks way better! Actual wings on Lord Raven make so much sense! ❤️
He looks like a DND character 😮😍
You should work on some spirit Halloween clowns, some of them aren’t really good and your work would look AWSOME
by far one of my favorite animatronic makeovers! Such a huge difference 😍! love these animatronic makeovers hope to see more❤❤❤
Man, you folks are quickly becoming one of my favorite crafting channels, up there with squidmar and goobertown. You two constantly have a lot of creative ideas!
I was literally at Spirit of Halloween today and I saw this animatronic displayed. how convenient 🤣🤣🤣
Fantastic!

One really good thing to use for aging is used coffee grounds gives it that muddy vibe and also using brown silicone caulk really good!
Jesus That Looks Good!
This was so worth the wait. Y'all did a beautiful beautiful BEAUTIFUL job!! He really looks amazing.
He’s absolutely badass looking, but the wings were so smart! Glad you guys shared this tip, I’ve always wanted to use wings in a cosplay and now I have some serious ideas on how to use them 😊
Leaf feathers look great.
Wings look fantastic.
Overall , a suburb job.

The wings are SOOOOO cool and genius! You did an awesome job!
Yess another video would be great!! Even without the staff he looks amazing, the way his arms move along with the wings makes him look so alive
the wings are my favorite part!!! the making of the staff is a wicked part 2!!
OH WOW!!! Lord Raven looks like a champion sorcerer of Tzeentch, definitely needs a staff!! Awesome job guys!
Omg! That was an amazing transformation. Since watching your videos, I always look at props like that in a different light. Great job.
Wow I love this makeover, and how much character you've given him. Looks like he should come with a complete backstory.
He looks amazing guys! Well done ! And yes a follow up on the making of the staff would be awesome!! 🎉
Wow! Over and above! Like night and day!
Great job!
Super impressed by the wings! Wowza! One of your best for sure!
That was amazing! Best reimagining yet! And of course we want to see you build a staff. You guys rock!

That is awesome! The moving wings are beautiful!!
He looks absolutely amazing now! Awesome job on the makeover!
You guys outdid yourselves! This is one of your best projects yet!
I would love to see the glowing staff become a video. You two are the best.
You guys are such an amazing crafty couple! Lord Raven looks amazing and I really wanna see that glowing scepter! 😍😍😍
This is so badass!! Yall absolutely killed it!!
This guy looks literally SO. COOL! You both did a great job and really nailed his spooky raven look!
I'm in awe. So creative and fun. Nicely done!
WOW! I thought it looked really good out of the box, but you guys really made it into something special! Fantastic work!
