How to make PICKLE RICK out of Polymer Clay / Rick and Morty Sculpture
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
I'M POLYMER CLAY PICKLE RICK. Or, at least, I made a Pickle Rick. And you can too! You could even make him out of an actual pickle, if you're that way inclined.

@@snodog00 Lots of people do stuff like this just to keep it for themselves, people have hobbies. Besides, he probably makes more from these videos and his Patron than he would from selling them anyway. Not saying he doesn't sell them, but there wouldn't be very much profit in doing that unless he's gotten to a point where he's able to charge at least a thousand bucks per piece, something I highly doubt. Handmade time consuming stuff just isn't profitable unless you're famous. Besides, I know he's been giving some away on his Patron, so I'm thinking that's probably the best way to make a living doing this.

Hi
The sentence "Dry my pickle off" got a louder laugh than I should admit.... especially as I was listening to this on headphones and had to explain to people around me why I was laughing so heartily and suddenly. Love it :D..... and it is that sentence that also had me sharing this video with as many people that know my humour as possible.

Wow, that is just incredibly good. Such a great representation of the cartoon variant. To me it was one of my favo episodes, especially to find out how Rick was going to get out of that pickle state.

Brilliant! This is glorious in its unsettling detail.
I’ve always wanted to actually sculpt this. So good, man. I love your channel.
This gave me an idea for a concept. Pickles vs rats! Vague story: -pickles used to live peacefully until the rats came and destroyed everything they cared for. - when Rick created prosthetics made from their enemies, he unknowingly started a revolution. -now pickles use this to their advantage to settle scores with the rats and take back what’s theirs. -if Rick were to find out about this, what would he do?

In another video you said that you liked making landscapes. I am a big fan of studio ghibli movies and I love your totoro and calcifer dioramas. How about princess mononoke for the next project? There are a lot of landscapes to choose from and some gross/fun stuff to sculpt like the headless god of the woods or just the severed head in the kettle (ohh, what's in the box?!). Or the demon boar that looks like it's made out of worms. That would be so great! BTW the moderation of your videos is just as entertaining as the working process is satisfying to watch. I love your humor.
