Actually some trivia that were missing is something rather important Are the fetch monsters even aggressive Do they want to kill if they're interrupted Or is all they do just to clean crime scenes? Cuz the way you describe these guys makes me think that you would sit back relax with a bag of popcorn and watch them clean it up. Unless you are a witness?

I think the Ice Cream Man is Ace of Clay's favorite. Just a hunch.

Seeing as the ice cream man has a sister, a friend (the chef) and a origin story I think we can safely say who the favourite child is

As creepy as she is, the moment I saw the skull hairpin I thought of The Nightmare Before Christmas, and now all I can imagine is this mutant as a Hot Topic employee being forced to wear the merch and quietly dying inside.

Maybe a cat guide? She was a victim of the seamstress but survived after being saved by one of the other guides. However she was still somewhat accessed by the entity through the seamstress, and partially transformed. This ‘gifted’ her with a tail which she uses to pounce and balance. She now follows the seamstress playing with and unpicking the thread of souls, like a real life cat and a ball of yarn, setting them free to return to their physical bodies. This is why the seamstress has to constantly check her thread to make sure none of the souls are set free. She is playful and approachable in nature but can become very vicious when necessary, usually when fending off the seamstress as the cat guide spends a great deal of time watching over those who live alone. As these people are usually adults, the cat guide isn’t held in the fondest regards of the nanny either. The cat guide would be a young girl, similar in age to Otto and would wear knitted clothes made from the red string left behind by the seamstress as a means of reminding her of her purpose and to keep the memory of the victims alive.

Ms trunchbull from Matilda

I had an idea for a mutant! I called them the Musician and they would be found lurking around mainly in theaters, concert halls, civic centers, basically anywhere music or concerts are performed. The Musician used to be someone proud of their music but lately has become unsatisfied and gone to madness trying to create the perfect piece. They're tall and spindly having the ability to fold themself into instrument cases to hide from their prey before striking unexpectedly. They also have the ability to extract or steal the voices of their prey to add to their collection of sounds in hopes of creating the best symphony or choir for their piece. I definitely took inspiration from Ursula for this character haha!

The Ice Cream Man looks unsettling in his own way, but Murda really looks like she would be calculatingly cruel and be plotting behind her brother's back. You've really upped the nasty on her. Thanks for showing us your process. I've learned so much by watching your videos over the past couple of years.

I've said it once before and I'll say it again, these designs and this world would make for a GREAT horror game.

I so love your stories ... They definitely make the characters come to life ... Actually you should make an animated/claymation series out of these creatures and guides ... That would be so cool ... But as always love your sculpts ... You're awesome ❤❤❤

Honestly, I love this series, and Murda looks really cool, but I find that I like some of the other things you do too. I think it would be cool if you did some fantasy type of sculptures. That being said, now I'm wondering if The Entity is maybe two people. You have one that targets people who are absolutely terrible individuals, twisting their appearances to what lies in their hearts and taking away their humanity as punishment for what they've done, and then you have one that targets children, and good people, like The Nanny before she was turned. That's where my thoughts are going with this anyway. Great video! Speaking of the Nanny, it would be great to learn a little more about her.

I love Murda and Albert. They're very simple yet ominous. And I love the way her design isn't too over the top, rather, her head is mostly the grotesque part; simply reflecting a grueling and morbid mind made physically apparent.

Anthony, just for a bit of irony I would have made the hair clip like a butterfly. She’s a mutant but a butterfly is pretty but she also went thru a transformation. Loved your piece!

By far my favourite of your mutants. There's something captivating about her deceptively simple backstory and overall aesthetic. Especially hearing how she seems to have no powers of her own despite being a mutant, or is unable to tap into any power due to being subjugated by the entity and her brother. I seriously hope to see more of her in the future, as well as others in this series.

So awesomely done! Wish we could have seen them standing together though😊

I love the suggestion that mutants are still driven by emotions and connections from their human lives. Does the Ice Cream Man keep her around out of revenge or a twisted form of love?

Looks great, also can you make her before she became a mutant?

She's absolutely *gorgeous*! I especially love her mouth and nose, and those hands! My only gripe is the suspenders hugging her chest like that. Unless it's some kind of latex, cloth just doesn't work like that. Especially if it's elastic (which many suspenders are). It could just be a style thing. I don't know anything about these mutants you've been making lately. But she is fantastic - as always. I love your work

Woah

Idea: The Cat Lady; A woman was at home when she got murdered by something. Her cats then ate some of her, then she was turned into a mutant. She killed her cats, and you can still see the souls of the cats in her sometimes. The way she kills is by getting cats to do her bidding. If you ever see a cat with a red diamond on their forehead, you need to run, because that is a cat slave of The Cat Lady.

Im losing count on all the awesome characters you've made in this series!

I would love to see some more human versions or maybe like mutant animals that are like sidekicks for a mutants that would be awesome too

I love how the universe is expanding!! Do you think you will do a teenager mutant or hero anytime soon? Don't have anything in particular in mind but you seem to gravitate towards sculpting "older" looking people for your heroes/mutants so I thought I'd ask! :)

I stumbled on your videos exactly when I needed them a few weeks ago and I've been meaning to tell you that I've learned SO MUCH just from watching you work, far more than any other sculpting videos I've found so far. I probably would've procrastinated even longer before saying something because, ugh, social anxiety, except you used a technique here that I saw you do in another video before, where you detail the hair in pieces before attaching them to the head, and doing that made a huge difference in what I'm working on now. I've been struggling on a figure whose hair has been aggravating me for DAYS and remembered, "OH! ACE DID THIS DIFFERENTLY!!!" after I noticed you do it again here with Murda. When I did it your way just now, it immediately fixed the problem I was having in getting the shapes right and I'm FINALLY satisfied in where things are going. SO!! First of all, thank you for posting these videos--I know filming everything and putting it all together has to take a up lot of time you'd probably rather be doing other things, but they are so, so appreciated. And second, thank you for making fun, positive content to look forward to. Even if I weren't into sculpting or immersed in the Nightmare universe you're creating, I'd still want to watch your videos because you're just plain fun. I didn't mean to ramble this long, but I've been meaning to tell you for ages now and the older I get, the more I realize how important it is to tell people when they make a difference in your life, even if we're strangers. Sure, I can like and subscribe (which I totally already have), but that just seems inadequate for all you've taught me so far and how much enjoyment I get from watching you work. P.S. Murda creeps me RIGHT OUT in the best possible way and I LOOOOOOOVE her tiny, gnarled claw hands in particular. Any plans for a pre-Entity Murda like her brother someday? You've got me intrigued in her as a character and now I'm dying to know what she would've looked like in her human form. Same for The Red Lady, one of my other favorites!! Both of them strike me as vain, self-centered characters, so there's something especially intriguing about them both becoming monsters and what's on the outside coming into alignment with who they are on the inside. I'm dying to know how you picture both of them in their human form, and what they might've looked like before their transformations. Either way, I can't wait to see with what you come up with next.

So cool 😎

There’s always that one character who gets more love than the others

Cant wait to get that TE shirt and nice OG designee because he was your first mutant :D

I don't wanna seem like I'm coming down on you because your creativity is outta this world. But as someone well endowed in the chest area, there's no way those suspenders touch any part of her stomach. Would have been a great spot from some cosclay from the apex of the chest to the belt line.

Yes!!! I love it. I love all the other characters in between keeps me excited when you finally release a new mutant.

What about trudy, the spider guide? She had a romance with claudia, but being gay during their lifetime was a huge crime. Trudy was more the happy and hopeful type of person, while claudia was very afraid. This fear started to take over and weaken her. One day, she was attaced by the entity and turned into the red lady. Shortly after that, the entity attaced trudy, but she knew, she had to fight back, so she was turned into the spider guide. But while she changed, otto came and started fighting the entity with her. Because of that a small part of her identity is still alive and at first she tried to get her old love back, but than she realised, that claudia was dead since the attack of the entity. But She still had a feeling, of where the red lady was, and she had the ability to teleport.Because of that, she specialised on blocking attacs by this mutant. When she arrives to an attackplace, she first ties the red ladys victim up and store them in the farest possible place from the mirror, then she starts fighting against the lady to weaken and force her to get back. After that, she frees the victim and will tell them everything about herself and leaves. Theres a crack in her mask, where one of her eyes and a part of her mouth is vible through. That is because of the little bit of her identety, that was not destroyed. What do you think about her?

Honestly she looks terrifying I love it 😸😸😸

Murda is pretty cool! Are you going to do a human version of her, like her brother?

So the continue of the Ice Cream Man's story would start the 3rd season of the mutant universe and what is next a computer based mutant although that would be cool to see.

Ngl love the way he says “wire” it’s so slightly different from how I do but it’s still so good

I imagine that Murda secretly curses her existence as a mutant, while Albert is happy to have someone he can talk to about ice-cream trivia while he works. Avocadan, the Chef, may be Ice-Cream Man's best friend, but he never leaves the kitchen, and it gets lonely out on the road...

She's Wicked awesome. I had to listen to her name quite a few times because I thought I was hearing things but her name really is Murder.

this really expands on the ice cream man's story

Question, does the entity have a physical form or is it more like a dark spirt

Her name is Amazing!

She's awesome! I love the drab color you used on her shirt.

Okay honestly someone really need to make a cartoon show out of these characters I swear so good!

I love watching Ace’s growth. He’s progressively got better & better. Every video I’m like Ooo this is my favorite…. Until I click another video. And another. & now I’m in a loop

That hairpin is everything. (And the loose hair).

It’s nice to see another female in the set ..Bit scary looking as we expect but so cool.She fits in well to the set 🥰

something i thought of, what if there was a neutral person in this world, called the blindsider. they wear what looks like a guides mask, that is cracked and taped over. They do carry an old lamp around, that often flickers on from time to time. they are usually harmless but seems to be stuck in between guide and mutant. they dont acknowledge any presence around them, no matter how clear they are, and most mutants dont even percieve them. there is only one mutant that acknowledges their presence, who is the mother, in which they seem to have some sort of relationship with. they will guide you through the world, down a path that seems pointless until the very end, but wont bother to let you know if you are in danger, so you can only follow them. not much is known about the blindsider, but most people dont even know if they saw them or not, since they arent acknowledged and are usually in the background. feel free to use my idea in a video, this would be really cool sculpted. ik it might not fit in quite right, but i feel like every world needs more than just the good guys and the bad guys.

Wow, I cannot believe I've been here since the beginning! Congratulations, @AceofClay! Murda's hair is amazing!

You know I can already see something crazy happen in this series like you creating a mutant version of yourself

I love the story so freaking much I enjoy the classic overshadowing sibling stories it makes it even more better

LN should hire AceOfClay for his sculpting talent like srsly, I would love to see your monsters (Edit: And heroes) in action and in their own levels. Especially Whisper

the sculptures you make are outstanding!

I love the backstories for these characters

Oh! I have been meaning to say this but keep forgetting; If you would like to revisit a beloved older character instead of making a new character concept, I'd really like to see a dynamic pose, the character in a setting that gave them some context or perhaps dishevelled from battle. The standing pose is great for character design, but I would really like to see one of your characters in a state that tells a story.

She's perfect! You're not afraid to make a truly hideous female character and it paid off here. It's such a simple design but it has so much character. I can just see her seething in the back of the truck, mumbling to herself about all of the cruel things she would do to her brother, if only he would hold still for a minute.

This is cool and I'm always excited when you release another video for this universe!

I wouldn't mind seeing her as a human just like her brother

YES! I love the mutant series, it’s the best.

LOVE THIS SERIES!! THEY ALL LOOK AWESOME AND HAVE GREAT STORIES

Oh my god, she's beautiful!

If your doing like family, mabye you should do like the steamtress had a daughter / son before she died and now her child helps her?

Definitely post a picture of brother and sister side by side on on Instagram or Facebook! It’d be the creepiest family photo shoot ever.

She's super creepy! Especially as she's so reminiscent of the Ice-cream Man! I love the way her hair lies, and I want to know more about her - is she just a slave to her brother or does she have powers or purpose of her own? I want to see the Entity!

Love her because she's Albert's sister !! She's very creepy looking! When will there be another hero ?

Your idea is unique, it's an amazing sculpture

nice touch with the hair !!!! :D that skull barrette was a very clever idea !!! :)
