The crab legs were a stroke of genius. They make it unique and add an extra level of intrigue and horror without being too outlandish. It’s the kind of genius you can rarely find outside of a child’s imagination. The choice to take her advice really paid off. Make sure you tell her that.

I never thought to use plastic wrap to texture clay. You never fail to do something instructional. The mimic is terrifying! Love it!❤

I always love a video where you sculpt.. dude. SO jealous of your sculpting skills. Absolutely sick build. ps. Georgie totally won.

Great video! Where to start... great tip with the clear wrap when sculpting, love how you did it in stages, love the pen as use for the bolts in the clay, the eye (chef kiss), your daughter's sculpt amazing. Thanks for taking part in the collaboration!

I can't believe this is your FIRST Supersculpey work🤯 and your daughter's idea was just great! Love when your share your artsy time together with us viewers🥺❤

After watching all of the videos, I declare you the winner, mainly because of including your child for the cuteness factor. Seriously, the crab legs really bring it to another level. I am glad to see you using polymer clay, and can't wait to see how you incorporate into future builds. Uvula is a fun word though. Let's go with Uvula for the dangly mouth bit.

❤ Love it! You have some great sculpting competition there! I love that you found a great way to include your little one! She had a great idea of making it like a crab. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

I love your daughter's sculpt!! She looks like she has fun! Good to spend time together! Love the crab legs!!!

Bloody bones, that little guy looks fantastic! We need more craft working with halfling episodes as a series though. That made the episode.

That's terrifying. Now if you'll excuse me I'm gonna go book some therapy sessions to mitigate the nightmares

I like how this project evolved throughout the process and how you were flexible enough to pivot as you felt you needed to. That’s something I’m trying to work on with my projects!

That was fantastic! Such a great job. The "overcooking" did not seem to harm it at all. I was worried when you posted your Patreon video a week or so ago with what happened. I love watching these collaborative efforts. It is fun to see what each artist comes up with. Great Job!!!!

Wonderfully horrific!! I love the paint job on the eye, it almost looks like it's glowing :)

The dangly thing has a naughty sounding name. It's a uvula.

I believe the scientific name for it is "hangy ball thing".

This is one of my favourite projects of yours yet! It turned out amazing, and your daughter’s also a genius. Seeing you crafting with her and working it all through with her reminded me of making stuff with my dad as a kid, which is where I get my love of crafting from today. I know she will look back on these sessions with immense fondness one day, and you’re giving her the incredible gift of creativity and self expression from an early age. Reason number 996 why I love the vibes of your channel. Already can’t wait for the next one…

I love this build so much, the legs was an inspired choice

The mimic is nice and all...but your daughter's sculptures are awesome!

Amazing work my friend! Loved your sculpted bigature. Menacing presence on the tabletop! What a fun build!

Looks great Michael! You make it look easy. Sculpting just seems like a hard and intimidating task. But that looks wonderful!

Everyone should build at least 1 mimic in their lifetime.

Both you and your daughter did a great job!

The "fleshy thing" at the back of the throat is called the Uvula!

Awesome man! Very dinamic and really... esplosive on the chest wood strutture! Like the half-crab part😜 your doughter's sculpt is much better tho 😂

This one was wild! What an epic build. Your daughter is adorable and is going to catch up to you real soon! I love the uvula (dangly thingy) a the crab legs...what a build! Wow. Also,, are you going to make that 3d model available to Patreon members? Wink, wink...

her sculptures are awesome!

Kiddo nailed the idea for sure, great project

What the actual..?! Amazing mate. I love the UV resin drool...

Totally bad ass, my brother! Even though your project was outstanding, your daughter’s was better!😅 -Rick, USMC

That is a wonderful and intense mimic! Great tips too. I was thinking of an oven mimic so I guess I have to make one now.

I thought you ere going to say, 'like something you might see on a stag do'! 🤣 Great work!

Georgie ! 🥰 and the word you are looking for is 'huig' in dutch :-) in English they translate it as uvula :-) !

She is great! Should get double pay!

What a great video. The mimic is really cool. Great modeling skills. Best wishes to you. Chicken

A favorite bit of lore i like to put into Mimics especially Treasure mimics is that they arent completely hostile. They think you are trying to instead take the treasure inside of them. Which really wouldnt be all that bad unless you ask yourself "Where do mimics come from?" baby mimics are to small to be treasure chests right?? Instead they start off at gems and coins and hide inside the parents mouth like certain fish do. The real fun part about this is the players don't know this tidbit so if you add it to your lore think about how this could affect your team after they take the "treasure" after killing it. Perhaps their items randomly get duplicated as mimics grow, perhaps they get a pet mimic, perhaps after a while if they don't notice certain items getting duplicated (perhaps in a bottomless bag that they dont check) start attacking them!! I love mimics they are the one monster i can never stop thinking about. Also i love this design you have for a mimic your daughter actually sparked a new bit of mimic idea/s for me. Crab Chest mimic.... Where would it come from where would it live how would it develop the crab like appearance.. Underwater adventure!!! Underwater adventure that takes place on a large titanic like sunken ship where a lot of things are mimics for some unknown reason. Turning out the reason why the mimics are atracted to it is b/c after you grab the main item turns out the ship is a mimic!! Mimic ships are horrifying to fight!!

Monster of a project!

In germany we say "zäpfchen". I like your coop stuff with chickens tabletop craft

Daughters sculpts>>>>>whatever this mimic nonsense is (Outstanding work my guy)

That was cool. I wanna make things now. I'm thinking spider like monsters to scare everyone 😁

Actually the stuff of nightmares! Love how this one evolved throughout the process. Great video as always mate

Really cool! Awesome job man!🤘🏻😉

that turned out so cool

Brilliant, Michael. 🤓

Absolutely awesome!!!! 😊😊😊

This is so bad ass!

It’s called the uvula! Loved your sculpting, great job. Your daughter’s was definitely better though! 😂

Beautiful work. Love all the details

Wow! Absolutely great job! Subscribed! I also like to make something similar things and fairy houses out of cardboard!

Awesome collab❤

Awesome build mate so good! Love the concept and design well done 👍

It’s called a uvula but my daughter has always called it her party hanger lol

I love this so much, what a great take on a classic and often kind of 'wrote' monster type! Where will we be able to get the 3d printable version?

Awsome man. That thing gives me the fear

Michael, this has to be one of the best mimics ive seen but of course your wee ones sculpt was better!!! A nasty sucking???...insert innuendo here

Rad Mimic. Did you used to play in Kill Goliath?

Great video! I enjoyed how you built the mimic in pieces and assembled. Fantastic tips included in the video! Ingenious idea to combine the crab into this build. Oh and yes your Daughters sculpting is better than yours.

I thought Dark Souls mimics with their human legs was freaky, but getting chased by this thing would be terrifying... unless it also only walks sideways 😂 Great seeing you try a new crafting method out, it turned out amazingly great! Very creative, I can see where Georgie gets it from 🙂

Your daughter is a far better sculptor. She is putting you to shame 🙂

Great Work mate 💯🔥👊🏼 By the way, your daughters sculpture is slightly better than yours 😊

Your daughter's sculpt is WAY better. Sorry.
