The is Chavant Clay or Plasteline is a wax based clay. NS is best for mold making. It isn't necessarily a firmer clay seeing it comes in soft/medium/hard. I have no clue why they just placed the Super Sculpey Firm with it. Hahaha

The Interviewer is asking so many good questions. props to him.

I scrolled to the comments section to see if anyone else had the same thought!

as a miniature painter and a concept artist, is amazing to see this process. it stills boggles my mind how can you achieve such realistic look with basically acrylic paint and inks. I struggle to make my miniatures look not cartoony and these guys can literally achieve any type of texture with only paint. Incredible job, i hope one day i can work on concepts for these guys.

I could watch stuff like this all day :-D

No matter how many features I see/hear/read about Sideshow's process, I'm always blown away each and every time. Nice interviews.

Amazing amount of detail, work, and commitment. Nice job Sideshow!

Man, the raw talent these guys have is incredible! I have the utmost respect for them.

well, he sucked at being a plumber, he run of from time to time, talking to shrooms with a task of saving a princess. This he can do for a living and can share with the world. But i must admit, after the recovery he had to go through in 2010, he looks better than ever, he is not hurting turtles anymore, he is not jumping up and down from the sewer systems anymore. He is basically a new and sober Mario now, and i am happy for him!

Love the detail in each of these figures. Pure art!

I could watch this stuff all day

Yay i couldn't wait for this I love learning about behind the scenes at prop makers and collectables please make more of these types of videos!

These were great. Nice to see a detailed interview by someone who not only appreciates the craft but understands it too. Wish they were longer.

Amazing interviews! So informative & fascinating. Thank you to everyone involved.

Damn that was a good interview. Good job Norm!

I’ve got my first two Sideshow figures coming later this year - Iron Man Mark 3 and Mortighull Death Reaper General. I’ve been following their work for years now and I look forward to a LOOOONG relationship in the future. Thanks for being awesome Sideshow!

loved this! so cool to see behind the scenes like that!

This was so cool. Thank you for sharing Tested! I have seen so many amazing models sculpted, but once they get painted they look terrible.. That shows how important is painting!

Absolutely awesome work guys. Keep up the great work fellas

Pretty late reply, but this is more like a "YMMV" thing IMO. Some people prefer to have the freedom of digital sculpting but some enjoy being able to touch and feel their sculptures. Plus, if you 3D print something you still need to clean it up as much as whatever you pull out of your mold lol.

Thank you for this informative peek inside the studio.

Fascinating process to see,love to see more of these videos,and very smart questions from the interviewer 😎

Aaabsolutely loved this. Great questions by norm and super interesting subject.

I LOVED THE ENDING :) WOOT WOOT

Great interview... Getting my first sideshow statue on Monday. Yay!!!!

The art work is amazing!

Great to see the process...involved

This is great, I would LOVE to see more about the molding process.

I like norm. He always asks very good questions to whomever he's interviewing.

Thank you so much for this video

I wish I could sculpt that looks incredible. This was a great interview

Great artwork!!!

These are the best kind of videos

Beautiful work

Outstanding!

Awesome ♥️ I love Sideshow Collectables

Thank you!

love you sideshow dudes

I can see the Herzog bust in the back ground! I loved Deadsnow, I've always wanted that sculpture :D

What beautiful sculptures congratulations Greetings from Ecuador..🇪🇨🖐😊

NORM YOU'RE KILLING IT MAN!!

Prototypes are still one of my biggest gripes with collector culture. Having bought very large, very expensive pieces myself there's always this anxiety about what the production paintwork is going to be like. In the industry as it is now, multi-million pound/dollar companies like Sideshow really shouldn't be having the issue of the overseas production team having 'different paints' higher skilled people should be employed to replicate much closer to the original pitch. One in particular was the Prime 1 Geralt statue that I initially missed out on, living in England we rarely ever get these huge, expensive polystone pieces because very few can afford or are willing to pay because of the extortionate price rise with our 20% tax on luxury items. In the end I caved after finding one in Australia for much more than the usual retail price, with the cost of the model, extremely expensive delivery and customs and import tax on top it ended up costing me a little under £1000. Opening it up, I was impressed and did like what I had but compared to the prototype it was worlds apart in paint application, it was overall just lighter and too 'clean' looking with some paint details that are far too bright on the Chort head base which is supposed to be a wild, dangerous, dirty monster and just looks a little cartoonish with its green details in parts. The prototypes barely look like they justify the price tags they're asking in the UK and the production quality is absolutely unjustifiable for the price for the most part. That said production vs prototype quality has improved over the years but as such the price has increased. It can't afford to get higher but the quality in most cases could be pushed that little bit further for no real extra cost.

what an awesome job. amazing

This is absolutely incredible. I’m not even into 3-D sculpting yet I would totally want to work for you guys. Career change alert. I am definitely going to order from this company now. Damn these high prices, yet it totally looks worth it.

I feel like Norm has listened to criticisms of his early interviews and improved considerably. Very fascinating episode. Good job folks.

Anthony Mestas is an absolute paint genius, I would happily pay a lot more to have him paint my stuff.

These sideshow videos are fantastic guys! Thanks!

LOVE IT

Simon Lee is indeed no joke! These people are mind-blowing!

Very cool stuff.... So talented!

Great interview 🙌🏼🔥

I would sell my soul for this talent. I am in the midst of making a cover out of sculpting foams starting from polymer and making a silicone mold for the bottom half of my prosthetic leg for shape/athetics and it is not easy. They make it look so easy.

I really like that Count Orlok back there!

Simon Lee is the boss. Everything that guy does is top notch and shows incredible character.

This is amazing. If I could sculpt rather than draw, it's definitely a field I'd get into.

Kinda wish you looked at the costuming process.

amazing

I am an ultra-detail sculptor, this is my DREAM JOB.

Now go find and interviewed who’s doing the mass producing of their prototype..

I started sculpting a few weeks ago! it has been a stuggle :P but gotta keep going :P

I know this is an older video but can someone PLEASE tell me what that figure/piece is at 3:20 next to the "undying carcass" on the top shelf farthest right?? Looks amazing, some guy with a creature bursting out of his chest! Would love to know!

Waoo so the guys overseas are the real genues since they don’t get any guides and need to replicable all the colors which a lot of times the outer color is a mix of many different layers of God know what colors he use. Cheers to those anomymous heroes!

What is the mermaid sculpture on the right in the beginning from?

so nice...

The interviewer makes me nervous waving his arms around like a mad man near the clay piece. I'm sure the guy working on it was thinking the same .... :D

Awsome! were can you learn to sculpt like this???

hey sideshow do you guys ever use 3d resin printing in your production. i love your sculpts they are amazing just like the action in the comic books

I would love to see the factory floor !

I never should have watched this video, now I bought one! Damn! ;)

This is AWESOME< I would love to see any of these made from scratch, I especially love the Joker at 8:16 :-D

5:40 ITS MARIO

impressive

I want to make one, does are some good skillz

The Joker figure is especially awesome!

this is so epic. i also draw and wish i did sculpting. I always loved it. lol im doing 3D printing but i still wanna learn this. alas there are no closes in South Africa...

Varg Vikernes... Didn't know you were in to sculpting... :D 0:43

Can you please tell me what types paint you used for coloring....

Any suggestions on the type of paint they use? Any specific brand recommended?

This is awesome, Tested! You know what you should try and do next? Catching some of the RPF guys working on some of their pieces, along with showing off their collection. I know those guys have day jobs and so it might be hard, but still, it would be amazing. EDIT: I know you sort of do this from time to time, but I'd like something more in-depth.

I want that job

Great video! I'm new to your channel.

Thank you as always for an amazing interview video! ....and for the record, 10:11 on the clock, can we get an explanation?...

You know, I admire these artists for what they do. I am not going to knock them. But I will say there are plenty of artists out there with similar talent, and I am kind of more impressed with the darn Chinese, which are able to replicate these things almost perfectly and mass produce them so that they are attainable to the people that truly nerd out over this stuff. I can't imagine how much work went into creating the manufacturing process.

JacobsDesigns2012 tmac20031 They really don't do a great job of replicating the original artist's paint work, which is why I've never given in to buying a sideshow statue, you can commission an actual artist like the guy who painted the original sculpt to paint your model and it would look 10x nicer. But basically, from what I've seen of production for items like this, they have tables of workers, they each get their own basket of parts and their reference material and they go to work.
