I miss this show. Even in my twenties, now an artist myself, I still think you can still learn so much from Neil. He still gives you new ideas as well as fantastic tips.
I don't think people realise how much of an icon niel is. I know teenagers and kids have always been wild and rebel rousers, but look at them today. Out and about causing crime and stabbing one another, and I can see why. There's nothing on TV anymore to inspire kids. No matter whether you was from a high income or a low income family, you could copy a project from art attack at a next to nothing price with items that were accessible in the home. I loved art attack as a kid, and every weekend my parents would give me a couple of quid to buy art supply's to make things I had seen on the show. It kept me entertained for hours and developed my mind to be productive, I never caused any trouble. Nowadays, today's influences are people with expensive clothing, high end gadgets that are just not doing anything imaginative and productive. Want to solve the social problems with today's kids???? Get the BBC to open up their checkbook, and get art attack and niel buchanan back on TV!!!!!!!!
The sly wink and nudge about him being in Zzzap! I missed completely as a kid but not now. This show is how I learnt every part of art I know today. Neil will always be the one and only Art Attack host to me ;;'x
bloody silly art college not accepting Neil!! there loss our gain! he's amazing at art, i learnt all my skills and tricks from this show! and i got into university!! rock on Neil!
I remember this edition of Art Attack From Monday 2nd February 1998. I like the way how Neil says "Haven't I seen him somewhere?" pretending that he doesn't know Smart Arty.
Really hard to get the perspective when you are doing normal artwork but to get the perspective right with those really big art attacks is really amazing.
This episode is one of my favourites I absolutely love Art Attack I always have and I always will it is a brilliant children's arts and crafts programme and Neil made lots of fantastic things in each episode.
oooh my god. i used to watch this guy on the italian art attack show, making big artistic creations on the ground, remaining silent all the time. i haven't watched this show in -what?- 6 years and now i can even hear neil talking!!!!!!!!!!!! this is the first time i feel like thanking the internet
LMAO OMG that big Art Attack! "Haven't I seen him somewhere before?" For those who don't get it, it's a character called Smarty Arty, an artist character Neil played in another old kids show called Zzzap! :D Mwah! Mwah! Mwah!
I REMEMBER THIS EXACT EPISODE BC I KNEW THIS SHOW WAS COMING ON AND THAT DAM GLUE STICK ALMOST KILLED ME WITH HOW CREEPY IT WAS AND I HAD GATHERED MATERIALS FOR WEEKS I HAD MY SPECIAL ART ATTACK MIXTURE AND I HAD ASKED FOR PAIINT AND CARDBOARD AND NEWSPAPER AND IT TURNED OUT SHITTY BUT I MADE IT
@CooperGal24 He's a character from a related TV show called "ZZZAP!". Neil played the character in the show, hence why he remarked about seeing him before. The kiss he does at the end of the Art Attack was the character's signature action. :)
VT Clock, Pritt Stick Sponsor Bump and an episode of Art Attack! We are privileged! Now all we need is a reference to "CITV, Broad Street Birmingham, B1 2JP"...
@MsMozila06 no if you buy a self hardening clay you don't need to bake it. at the end, he was showing examples of frogs made of different types of clay, one of them being the one that you have to bake, and he said to be careful if you ever choose to use that type
I remember the episode were neil made a thumbs up trophy It looked so good and easy too do I attempted myself at making one for my sister who was in university at the time And I failed miserably
Does anyone remember a Big Art Attack where Neil is at school and fed up of the horrible school dinners and does a big Art Attack of the school dinners in a dustbin? and then all the angry dinner ladies chase him!
@Centralfan94 Yes I remember that one where Neil goes to a school and is fed up with the horrible school dinners that was in the tenth series shown in early part of 1998 I can even remember how the school finished the letter it went "Whatever you do, don't stay for lunch because our lunch is disgusting!"

Tyler Scott o999888oo999?!l

Maybe now that I'm 23 I can make with success some stuff shown in here that I find useful. What a great childhood
Zadkiel Fontecha I tried them again and now I'm teaching other kids how to do it :)
You know you're a 90's kid when u use to watch Art Attack.
The sly wink and nudge about him being in Zzzap! I missed completely as a kid but not now. This show is how I learnt every part of art I know today. Neil will always be the one and only Art Attack host to me ;;'x
i remember watching this and attempting to make stuff but failing miserably... ahhh those were the days
iF that filming studio was my room and art work place... I WOULD BE IN HEAVEN... sighhhh. I miss art attack!!!!
bloody silly art college not accepting Neil!! there loss our gain! he's amazing at art, i learnt all my skills and tricks from this show! and i got into university!! rock on Neil!
You make it as a professional artist ¿
" You can take your time doing this, I am just doing it quickly to show you" Turns into masterpiece.. :P

Missing this so much, and did that frog while in primary school!
AND The nod to Zaaaap!!! Double nostalgia shot. Thanks for posting mate?
6:40 did Neil just give us all the finger? LOL love this show brings back so many awesome memories!
"You know sometimes when I'm trying to think of ideas for big Art Attacks I just fancy doing something really arty"
'Art attack is sponsored by pritt stick'- that explains a lot.
the Head used to terrify me and he still does
even gave me nightmares
GOOD
jodie seabright das
I think I blocked him out of my memory tbh
You probably wouldn't have been terrified when The Head was a real person.
I remember watching this all the time when I was younger
awww i love this when i was little..
Used to watch this when I was younger, now here I am 19 years of age at University doing art and the only thing that can inspire me is Art Attack.
LMAO OMG that big Art Attack! "Haven't I seen him somewhere before?"
For those who don't get it, it's a character called Smarty Arty, an artist character Neil played in another old kids show called Zzzap! :D Mwah! Mwah! Mwah!
As a kid I actually tried to make some of the stuff from this show and...... I failed every single time. He makes it look so easy!
Yes, Neil is my spirit animal
this show got me into becoming an artist
im now 20 .. but art attack still amazes me..!!!
Neil Buchanan was an art genius back then when I was little.
Damn, im gonna make myself a frog iphone charger
AI need a money please and you money
He has nice writing
Pretty sad when you think about it. Life goes by way to fast. soon we will all be dead
It's just Art Attack, fella ;) No need for an existential crisis.
lol but you know what i mean though. is it really that long ago?? fuck sake xD
Yup, of course
3 years already since you posted that... time really does fly huh?
I do that.. every morning I wake up to find that I've.. ahem.. self hardened! ;D
this just cheered me up from the horrible mood I was in. thank you neil.
Hahaha, I forgot about The Head! Man, I used to watch this show all the time.
Aaw so many good memories of my childhood !! :')
Neil you absolute legend!
I REMEMBER THIS EXACT EPISODE BC I KNEW THIS SHOW WAS COMING ON AND THAT DAM GLUE STICK ALMOST KILLED ME WITH HOW CREEPY IT WAS AND I HAD GATHERED MATERIALS FOR WEEKS I HAD MY SPECIAL ART ATTACK MIXTURE AND I HAD ASKED FOR PAIINT AND CARDBOARD AND NEWSPAPER AND IT TURNED OUT SHITTY BUT I MADE IT
I used to think that if the head kept wobbling his head when he laughed it may fall off and roll away lol xxxx
i think neil played the solo during the big art attack..LOL!!
I also remember fencers being made out of hardware at a garden centre. The kayak Big Art Attack was after the warrior mask.
Love how he made his character in Zzzap, Smart Arty!!!!
Neil also made a Big Picture of the No. 73 House in Series 14 (2001).
@@gwr2838 I remember that one
Happy to see this prog again... Especially this esp.
Remembering childhood days
He's doing so fast.
but it's he's doing good :)
oh!!! i very miss him and this show!!! nice!!!
AAWWW I remember watching this ! Art Attack used to be my favourite show!
Damn those embossed lettering looks really convincing :D! I love Art Attack! My childhood
The frog was one of the few things from the show I actually made.
Oh my gosh YES. I would watch this every day!
There is a great eye that never sleeps
@CooperGal24 He's a character from a related TV show called "ZZZAP!". Neil played the character in the show, hence why he remarked about seeing him before. The kiss he does at the end of the Art Attack was the character's signature action. :)
Neil is a genius
Me too. I like the Art Attack Room, so messy, but decorative.
Never realized he was british when I was watching this as a kid. Didn't know what that meant i always thought he spoke weird though ! Now I know why.
its beautiful!!!
i like this program
when I was 12 years old I watched this
I bet the big Art Attack was to celebrate Zzzap's 5th Anniversary.
TheMeakers you're a legend for uploading this :D
Smarty Arty. Greatest Big Art Attack.
Τα παιδικά μου χρόνια ρε :'-) 2016 και ακόμα εκεί!
I just loved this show when i was a kid :D
I remember learning the emboss letters from art attack... ah memories
VT Clock, Pritt Stick Sponsor Bump and an episode of Art Attack! We are privileged! Now all we need is a reference to "CITV, Broad Street Birmingham, B1 2JP"...
i just adored this show !
I actually paint and I REALL want to make this frog paint brush holder now.
After watching this show as a kid, I made a frog penholder exactly like the one here, but I painted it green and red, I believe.
Series10
Episode 1: Top Secret File, Feet, Clouds
Episode 2: Frog pen holder, Embossed lettering, Giant eye
Episode 3: Dream Island, Ground shadows, Sand paintings
Episode 4: Handy grippers, No drawing water, Totem pole
Episode 5: Heavyweight Sneakers, Sausages and eggs, Ersatz oil painting
Episode 6: Futuristic flyer, Surprise picture, Picture frame picture
Episode 7: Photo house, Perfect faces, Disjointed picture
Episode 8: Oil tube, Haunted house, Leaves
Episode 9: Watch calendar, Sticky borders, Warm and cold
Episode 10: Jungle safari frame, Autographs, Trees in the moonlight
Episode 11: Secret Brooch, Turn yourself into an alien, Greek urn
Episode 12: None
Episode 13: Archived arts (Horror Hanger, Drippy Lettering, Scrap Paper Spiders)
Your episode list is wrong!
CORRECT ORDER:
Episode 1: Oil tube, Haunted house, Leaves
Episode 5: Frog pen holder, Embossed lettering, Giant eye
Episode (?): Heavyweight Sneakers, Sausages and eggs, Ersatz oil painting
And the rest are correct.
Good to see you kept STV identa at the end, I believe STV still control somerights to the tapes from S5 until the end.
really miss art attack since I was kids :-)
Wow, it's just I 'd like my daughter to be when we are watching Neil together.
I remember this episode and failed misserably at the paintbrush holder
When you cut the baloon... It feels like your slitting the balloon's neck
I absolutely love Art Attack it is one of my favourite programmes do you have any more editions of this great show?
the chuck norris of art
Miss old neil.........
This wasn't Disney though - this was CITV!
Does anybody remember a Big Art Attack when Neil was at a lake and made a kayak out of camping equipment?
The Head cracked me up.
I used to LOVE this show when I was a kid!!!
@MsMozila06 no if you buy a self hardening clay you don't need to bake it. at the end, he was showing examples of frogs made of different types of clay, one of them being the one that you have to bake, and he said to be careful if you ever choose to use that type
I remember the episode were neil made a thumbs up trophy

And I failed miserably

Neil Buchanan
When kids tv was brilliant rip 90s tv shows 😭😭
I'm sure those artist kids will grow up to be big brother logo designers.
Does anyone remember a Big Art Attack where Neil is at school and fed up of the horrible school dinners and does a big Art Attack of the school dinners in a dustbin? and then all the angry dinner ladies chase him!
so, before, he used to do his big art attacks in his studio????
I love AT very much and it's the reason that i study art
instead of making the paintbrush holder frog as hardning clay use play doh if u cant find one and it will dry if you put it in sun
wow! I LOVE ARTS!!
Very useful and creative.
@Centralfan94 Yes I remember that one where Neil goes to a school and is fed up with the horrible school dinners that was in the tenth series shown in early part of 1998 I can even remember how the school finished the letter it went "Whatever you do, don't stay for lunch because our lunch is disgusting!"
