Transcripts

I thought today we could make a mask

together if you don't know who I am I'm

mainly a tick tock Creator and I make a

ton of masks for my videos and because

it's spooky season I thought it would be

really fun to you know make a mask

together long form I can walk you

through the steps besides my Foxy Five

Nights at Freddy's mask that I made for

my Michael Afton cosplay all my masks

are original characters too so I also

thought it would be fun to like go

through how I come up with my characters

and some like simple character design

today I thought it might be fun to

create a fox mask together because I've

only done this foxy one before and I've

never actually made a fox of my own I

think the main thing when I'm coming up

with this mask is just finding a way to

make it super specific and super you

know just really obvious it's a fox and

I think a lot of that comes from just a

very simple simple design and that's why

I'm kind of going towards sort of this

like very triangle shape with the nose

on the bottom and then maybe some very

angled to the side eyes and I was

thinking I could make them like super

duper realistic I'm aware that this is

kind of a stupid design but my designs

always kind of start like this and it

gives me lots of room to like sort of

create and explore and you know change

it as I go along now here are the tools

that we're going to need we're gonna

need a lot of tape right here this is a

box that I have that has you know

scissors and more tape in it and there's

also a lot of markers because I use a

lot of markers in my designs and here I

have a ton of scrapbook paper and

construction paper also this right here

is a bruised wheel um I think I got it

from Ben Nye but I use it all the time

to make my masks look kind of dirtier

and grimier and I am obsessed with it I

thoroughly recommend um I probably need

to buy a new one because this one is

kind of a wreck you're also going to

need a box that goes on your head that

is what like you know I put on my head

so I can put the mask on the front this

one's actually been used in another Tick

Tock before but yeah I'm gonna I'm gonna

use this so this is how big of a space I

need to cover with my mask so it doesn't

look like there's a box peeking from the

corners I just sorted through all the

scrapbook paper and I picked out like

some oranges I really love these

patterns but the problem is is there's

only like one of each of these so I

think I'm gonna use these maybe for the

ears and maybe some embellishments and

then I obviously picked out a bunch of

the orange construction paper so I can

kind of use this as like a very simple

base

[Music]

basically what I'm doing right here is

I'm gonna tape together these big thick

pieces of scrapbook paper they're just

the backs of two scrapbook sheets to

kind of create a base

and we'll be very long by the mid and

sleep and he never would go wrong

everyone says he was pretty

basically I'm marking where this box

hits on this piece of paper so I can

make sure that the mask I create is big

enough to cover the Box

[Music]

I've been using this really beautiful

scrapping paper as a back for a bunch of

masks recently and it's been making me

almost a little sad because it's so

beautiful but like I don't know what

else to use

[Music]

all right so this is the completed back

this is basically what I'm going to draw

the design on

[Music]

all right so I did the design on

basically one side and I folded in half

so I can kind of get a symmetrical thing

going on on both sides what's funny is

this mask is going to end up being

asymmetrical anyways because I'm doing

such a bad job cutting this

all right so this is basically the back

for the fox mask

I'm trying to create uh different

backing and this is what I'm going to

then trace this white shape onto and

then I'm going to cut it out I'm

ignoring the ears though because I think

I want to use the construction paper

that is all cool and uh patterned for

the ears

[Music]

I think with this one maybe I'll even

add like some additional Orange in just

to make it really sure that it looks

like a solid complete thing I love

zombie weather so let's go to that

beautiful sea follow along say you're

with me anything

all that all right I'm now gonna cut

this out I still haven't figured out

what I'm going as for Halloween which is

a little nerve-wracking every year I

kind of do something a lot scary which I

always think that people find a little

ironic it's gonna go as the man in the

yellow path from Curious George this

year which maybe I still will because I

think that'd be a pretty cool costume

but if you have any ideas for Halloween

costumes for me just uh let me know

shoot shoot me a DM drop me a comment

let me know and give me your advice on

what I think like I could do as a

costume

all right so I've got it all cut out now

which means I can now lay it on top so

I'm gonna basically tape it down now and

I'm gonna use I think the better bigger

tape because I want it to be really

sturdy and then this will have a pretty

good back and support I forgot to put my

Halloween necklace on it says run run

run on it but I really want to wear it

for this video and I completely forgot

so now I have it on which makes uh

everything a little more spooky scary

and you know that's the thing uh just a

little bit better I feel a little more

uh Halloweeny now go to work

marcelling hair every this is going to

be interesting because I feel like the

fox's ears are almost gonna kind of look

like devil horns which

I really hope this doesn't turn out bad

if I make this whole video and his

master nuts out bad that's gonna be

really really embarrassing I'm filming

everything on my iPhone and it was gonna

die so I went and charged it some more

and in the meantime I cut out some

little details and embellishments now

I'm gonna basically make these eyes look

super duper hyper realistic as realistic

as I can make them and then I'm gonna

you know finish it all out I feel like I

hyped this up a little too much by

saying as realistic as possible

obviously it's not gonna be as realistic

as possible because you know I'm not the

best artist in the world but it's gonna

be you know as good as I can make it so

hopefully uh you guys like it and think

it comes out kind of good I feel like

whenever I make these they always look

kind of rough while I'm in the process

of making them and then they just kind

of come out in the end so I'm hoping

that's what happens with this one so

basically this is what it looks like

right now and I think I realized I want

to put some smudge around the eyes so I

think I'm gonna go in and do that now

and then I'm gonna tape everything down

[Music]

kind of reminds me of is like some sort

of like demon creature that lures

children out into the forest all right

the mask is done uh I think she looks

pretty cool I do feel if I were to make

her again I would use more scrapbook

paper and less of the construction paper

I think I prefer the way the scrapbook

paper looks but um she has been made so

uh ready for the grand reveal uh three

two one

wow she's a little smudgy but I really

like the way she looks I've also

automatically called her a she because

to me she looks kind of like a desperate

mother I put lots of scratches and

smears of black around it almost looks

like she kind of has some sort of eye

shadow going on which I think is kind of

cool I have a whole storyline I came up

with literally while I was looking at

her I came up with a whole Tick Tock I

could do starring her that I'm probably

gonna make last time I made a mask video

um it was this bunny I made it was for

tick tock and I really did like this

bunny too in fact I feel almost like

this bunny in this box kind of have like

they could be from the same thing energy

but I I really like the way this mask

turned out I think I think she looks

super cool now I'm gonna insert The Tick

Tock I'm gonna make with her pull

motherfox motherfox lived in the woods

all alone she used to have three kids of

her own but they unfortunately all past

mother Fox liked drinking tea with

Friends making necklaces and arranging

flowers but once a mother always a

mother and she longed for a child to
